...translation it is a poor and inadequate piece of work. That question it is not worth while here to discuss; but it still bids fair to remain among the imperishable classics of our tongue. For its extraordinary merits as a piece of English place it above the rank of a translation and transform it into something only less original and native to the intellectual soil than the work of Shakspere or Milton themselves. It is surprising, indeed, that it has been so seldom studied from this point of view, and the attempt at Harvard to do something of the sort...
...Princeton, the nine had to fight against heavy odds. The lacrosse men sustained their reputation for good steady play, and the cricket eleven by their fourth consecutive victory has roused the interests of former years, and has made that sport one in which Harvard can take a high rank.

With this as our motto, "Patriotism to our Alma Mater," we enter upon our duties in conducting the course of the CRIMSON...

...fitting home for the School, which will be ready for occupation next October. But we are still without provisions for the regular expenses of the School, especially for the salary of a permanent director. It was obvious from the beginning that our School could never aspire to the rank and importance which the French and German schools at Athens have long maintained, and could never undertake continuous and serious work, while its head was continually changing, and there was only temporary provision for even this changing directorship. The ground of the present appeal is the necessity for immediate action...
