Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809-1894) "From the author's edition of Poetical Writings . The work of this veteran poet-essayist is probably as well known in this country as in America." ( Sharp Joseph Warren, M.D. Trained in the holy art whose lifted shield Wards off the darts a never-slumbering foe, By hearth and wayside lurking, waits to throw. Oppression taught his helpful arm to wield The slayer's weapon: on the murderous field The fiery bolt he challenged laid him low, Seeking its noblest victim. Even so The charter of a nation must be sealed! The healer's brow the hero's honours crowned, From lowliest duty called to loftiest deed. Living, the oak-leaf wreath his temples bound; Dying, the conqueror's laurel was his meed, Last on the broken ramparts' turf to bleed Where Freedom's victory in defeat was found. June 11th, 1876 (Text from American Sonnets

THE BOYS Has there any old fellow got mixed with the boys? If there has, take him out, without making a noise. Hang the Almanac's cheat and the Catalogue's spite! Old Time is a liar! We're twenty to-night! We're twenty! We're twenty! Who says we are more? He's tipsy, young jackanapes!show him the door! "Gray temples at twenty?"Yes! white if we please! Where the snow-flakes fall thickest there's nothing can freeze! Was it snowing I spoke of? Excuse the mistake! Look close,you will not see a sign of a flake! We want some new garlands for those we have shed, Amd these are white roses in place of the red. We've a trick, we young fellow, you may have been told, Of talking (in public) as if we were old; That boy we call "Doctor," and this we call "Judge;" It's a neat little fiction,of course it's all fudge. That fellow's the "Speaker,"the one on the right; "Mr.Mayor," my young one, how are you to-night? That's our "Member of Congress," we say when we chaff; There's the "Reverend" What's his name?don't make me laugh.

American Legal Manuscripts from the Harvard Law School Library The Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. Papers Scope and Content Note Biographical Note [This item added to Web October, 1996.] Scope and Content Note The 29,000 items in the collection of papers of Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., span the years 1861 to 1935, with some of the family biographical material going back another 100 years, and the Holmes Estate, the Palfrey and the Howe materials covering the years from Holmes' death to the time of Mark Howe's death in 1967. The collection includes correspondence, diaries, drafts of writings, autographs, photos, clippings, books, pamphlets, planograph copies, maps, and memorabilia. The papers of Justice Holmes consist mainly of correspondence, biographical and family material, and Mark Howe's research material. Since Justice Holmes destroyed almost all letters of a private personal nature that he received, his correspondence consists mainly of letters which he sent out and which Mark Howe collected, and letters received by Holmes of a more general nature, such as the Pollock and Laski letters. Among Justice Holmes's correspondents were U.S. Presidents Herbert Hoover, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and William H. Taft; U.S. Supreme Court Justices Brandeis, Cardozo, Frankfurter, Hughes, and Stone; Henry Adams, James Barr Ames, James Bryce, Lady Clare Castletown, Morris Raphael Cohen, Henry F.

Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809-1894) American Author, Wit, Poet A man's mind, stretched by a new idea, can never go back to its original dimensions. A moment's insight is sometimes worth a life's experience. I think that, as life is action and passion, it is required of a man that he should share the passion and action of his time at peril of being judged not to have lived. It is the province of knowledge to speak And it is the privilege of wisdom to listen. The great thing in the world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving. The sound of a kiss is not so loud as that of a cannon, but its echo lasts a great deal longer. Where we love is home, home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts.

71. Constantly Risking Absurdity shelf; For the rhyming tarantula surely has bitten, And music must cureyou, so pipe it yourself. Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809-1894). http://blue.carisenda.com/archives/cat_oliver_wendell_holmes.html

A Familiar Letter Posted by comments (0) Category: Oliver Wendell Holmes Who knows what a treasure your casket may hold? As a painter his tint, as a workman his tool; Just think! all the poems and plays and romances Were drawn out of this, like the fish from a pool! You can wander at will through its syllabled mazes, What is there to hinder your picking out phrases Use words that run smoothly, whatever they mean; Leander and Lilian and Lillibullero Are much the same thing in the rhyming machine. There are words so delicious their sweetness will smother Put both in one stanza, its fortune is made. With musical murmurs and rhythmical closes Perhaps you will answer all needful conditions For winning the laurels to which you aspire, By docking the tails of the two prepositions As for subjects of verse, they are only too plenty For ringing the changes on metrical chimes; A maiden, a moonbeam, a lover of twenty Have filled that great basket with bushels of rhymes. By a famous old hand in the arts of design; The name of the draughtsman was Rembrandt of Rhine.

SEARCH: the last leaf by Oliver Wendell Holmes (1809-1894) I saw him once before, As he passed by the door, And again The pavement stones resound, As he totters o'er the ground With his cane. They say that in his prime, Ere the pruning-knife of Time Cut him down, Not a better man was found By the Crier on his round Through the town. But now he walks the streets, And looks at all he meets Sad and wan, And he shakes his feeble head, That it seems as if he said, "They are gone." The mossy marbles rest On the lips that he has prest In their bloom, And the names he loved to hear Have been carved for many a year On the tomb. My grandmamma has said Poor old lady, she is dead Long ago That he had a Roman nose, And his cheek was like a rose In the snow; But now his nose is thin, And it rests upon his chin Like a staff, And a crook is in his back, And a melancholy crack In his laugh.

Oliver Wendell Holmes American writer and physician, whose wit and intellectual vitality are representative of cultivated Boston society of the era. Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Holmes was educated at Harvard College. He also studied in Europe, and in 1836 he received a medical degree from Harvard Medical School and began to practice medicine in Boston, Massachusetts. From 1847 to he taught at Harvard Medical School. Holmes's essay "The Contagiousness of Puerperal Fever" (1843) advanced the use of aseptic techniques in obstetrics and surgery. Holmes was one of the so-called Boston Brahmins, a circle of intellectually and socially cultivated Bostonians. His fame as a writer of light, witty verse and as a raconteur was purely local until 1857, when he began writing a series of papers, The Autocrat of the Breakfast-Table, for The Atlantic Monthly. These essays, published in book form in 1858, achieved immediate popularity for their lively expression of ideas. Over the Teacups, another collection of The Atlantic Monthly essays, published when Holmes was 80 years old, shows the same wit and vitality.
