Sed novo in sacello

Pedissequos aspexit,

Quos nostra Academia

Honoribus erexit.

Sed parce, precor, parcito,
Nam ipse es expertus,

Effugiunt omnes protinus
Cum carcer est apertus.

At nobis minitatur,

Si rex sit rediturus,

Tunc iste (Phobo duce) est

Tela resumpturus.

Sed parce, precor, parcito,

Piscator ictus sapit,

Fugatus namque miles iners

Arma nunquam capit.

Nor can you make the world

Of Cambridge praise to ringe,

Et eloquentiæ fructus

Abundè protulisti:

Sed parce, tibi, parcito,

Ne omne absumatur,

Ne tandem tibi arido

Nil suavi relinquatur.

Jam satis oppugnasti,

O Polyphemi proles !

Et tanquam taurus gregis

Nos oppugnare soles.

Sed parce, tandem, parcito,

Tuis laudatus eris,

Et nunc inultus tanquam stultus

A nobis dimitteris.

LADY ARABELLA STUART.

THE circumstances of the life of this accomplished and persecuted lady,

"From kings descended, and to kings allied," are familiar to every reader of biographical history. In Lodge's Illustrations of British History are some letters which convey an exalted idea of her mental abilities; and the editor has proved, in opposition to the assertion of the authors of the Biographia Britannica, that she was far from deficient in personal beauty.

She was the only child of Charles Stuart, fifth earl of Lennox, (uncle to James the First, and great-grandson to Henry VII.) by Elizabeth, daughter of sir William Cavendish, of Hardwick; was born about the year 1578, and brought up in privacy under the care of her grandmother, the old countess of Lennox, who had for many
