Side 275 - Inscription of Khalsi. The pillar has gone through many vicissitudes, it is now forty-two feet in height, and has two principal Inscriptions, besides several minor records of pilgrims and travellers from the first centuries of the Christian era to the present time. The oldest Inscription is that of Asoka, clearly and beautifully cut, and only a few letters are lost by the peeling of the stone. There are four distinct Inscriptions on the four sides, and one long Inscription, which goes completely...
Side 355 - Hope springs eternal in the human breast; Man never Is, but always To be blest; The soul, uneasy and confined from home, Rests and expatiates in a life to come.
Side 406 - Art is long, and Time is fleeting, And our hearts, though stout and brave, Still, like muffled drums, are beating Funeral marches to the grave. Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime ; And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time ; Footprints that, perhaps, another, Sailing o'er life's solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother, Seeing, shall take heart again.
Side 413 - I do not like you, Dr. Fell, The reason why, I cannot tell ; But this I know, and know full well, I do not like you, Dr. FelL

Side 406 - Not enjoyment and not sorrow, Is our destined end or way ; But to act, that each to-morrow Find us farther than to-day.
Side 655 - Seeking nothing, he gains all ; Foregoing self, the Universe grows " I " : If any teach NIRVANA is to cease, Say unto such they lie. If any teach NIRVANA is to live, Say unto such they err ; not knowing this, Nor what light shines beyond their broken lamps, Nor lifeless, timeless bliss.
Side 157 - The fact is, that the educated Native mind requires hardening. That culture of the imagination, that tenderness for it, which may be necessary in the West, is out of place here ; for this is a society in which, for centuries upon centuries, the imagination has run riot, and much of the intellectual weakness and moral evil which afflict it to this moment, may be traced to imagination having so long usurped the place of reason.
Side 406 - Lives of great men all remind us, We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time ; " Let us then be up and doing, With a heart for any fate ; Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labour and to wait.
Side 273 - Junagurh, in Kathiawar, of the Province of Bombay, forty miles to the north of the famous Temple of Somnath. The first transcript of the inscription was taken by Dr. John Wilson, of Bombay, forty years ago, but Major Tod had the honour of reporting its first discovery in 1822. It covers above one hundred square feet of the uneven surface of a huge rounded and somewhat conical granite boulder rising twelve feet above the surface of the ground ; it occupies the greater portion of the north-east face...
