The crocodile is terrifying to them who flee from him and un utter coward when it is being pursued. The eagle when it is old flies so high that it sorches its feathers; and nature consents that that it renews its youth by falling in shallow water. And if its young ones bear to gaze at the sun it does not feed them. No bird that does not wish to die should approach its nest. Alepo. Fish: The alepo cannot live out of water. This opens completely when the moon is full: and when the crab sees it it throws a piece or stone or twig into it and thus prevents it from closing up, so that it serves the crab for a meal. Dragon: This twines itself round the legs of the elephant, and it falls upon him and both die. And in dying it has its revenge. Stag: This when it feels itself bitten by the spider called phalangiun eats crabs and rids itself of the poison. Lizard: This when it fights with serpents eats sow-thistles and gains its freedom. The Swallow: This gives sight to its blind young with the juice of celandine. Weasel: This when chases rats eats first of rue. Panther: This will still fight with the dogs and the hunters after its entrails have fallen out. Wid Boar: This cures its diseases by eating ivy. Serpent: This when it it wishes to renew itself casts its old slough, commencing by the head: it transforms itself in a day and a night. Crow: This when it has slain the chameleon purges itself with laurel. Chameleon: This always takes the colour of the object on which it is resting; as a consequence they are often devoured by the elephants together with the leaves on which they are resting. Tiger: This is a native of Hyrcania: it bears some resemblence to the panther from the various spots on its skin; and it is an animal of terrifying speed. When the hunter finds its cub it carries them of instantly, after plaxcing mirrors at the spot from which he has taken them, and then immediately takes to flight on a swift horse. Camels: The Bactarian has two humps, the Arabian one. They are swift in battle and very helpful for carrying burden. This animal is a great observer of rule and proportion, for it does not move at all if its load is larger than it is accustomed to, and it is taken too long a journey it does the same and stops suddenly, so the merchants are obliged to make their lodging there. submarine tantalizing beauty lucid expression votaries of classicm freedom of expression represent everything according to nature Rock of Achievement ethereal simplicity shield cut octagon cut kite cut right angled triangle French King Spectacle of the blend not married vegetarian left handed writing Cardinal of Aragon Origin for Etna's Fire Metrical Licence Water winding in wonder-working coil fables of vulcan's forge Capricious of Volatile Pridigy Treasury of Nature Landscape Backgrounds Structure of the Human Frame Inexhaustable Energy Reveal the ordered continuity Element Forces Light of Modern Reasearch No sinew or leaf would be conventional but taken directly from The son, not grandson of Nature Curious Appositeness The Fruits of his studies Versatility in Arts This habit of scientific investigation in inception subsidiary to the practice to the practice of his art aroused the wonder and admiration of his contemporaries The sun doesn't move Rich Harvest Temerity Traversed the whole domain of nature Discoveries and Observations Archaic Smile Conjecture and Prefigurement Harvest of a Lifetime Natural Phenomena and close analysis of their laws Methods of Investigation Undefined, Ungarnered Knowledge Outspans the confines of his age Purely artistic and creative faculities Human Spirit The Outlook, Never theless Theory of Practice Artistic Expression Fused Molten in the flame-heat of Genius Allurements Helen's Love Surmise Sum Up Ordered Effort Titanic Energy I Wish In Company of This is arranged To Work Miracles Most Beautiful Passages Flight of Time Glides Subtlely Divine Handiwork Labours dost look magnetic eye eye beholds is both rudder & bridle to the senses Terrestial Nature Error Fault not a step-mother but a compassionate nature the idea or faculty of the imagination Truth alone was the daughter of the time Science is the captain & practice the soldiers wisdom is the daughter of experience budding branches waving corn ravening lions and wolves fertile fruitful earth each new summer each new spring new months and new years rarefied Ensign, playing banner blown by the wind Enhancements and spirits can work and speak without tongues guide of the foolish multitude tranquil clearness of the air and transform it into the hue of the night thunder-claps and lightning-flashes rushing through the darkness impetus storm to overthrough Such an art it had the power to enhance the tranquil beauty of gemstone and transform it into pieces of ultimate beauty, to create coruscations and tempests with thunderbolt & lightning flashes rushing work miracles lord over all nations Art has the power to illuminate the tranquil beauty of gemstones and transform it into pieces of ultimate beauty Manifest Sophistical Sciences Supreme Certainity Supreme Fools The Necromancer & Enchanter Propel Itself Into Life The buried treasures, the jewels that lie in the body of the earth will also become manifest to him; no lock, no fortess, however impregnable will avail to save All eternity happen to alchemists, the would-be creators of gold and silver, and to Engineers who think to meak dead water stir itself into life Span of Life Design comphrehend the mind of God which embraces the whole universe Those parts united compose the whole of that thing which ought to be loved Fragrant fruits or flowers Works of Nature Demonstrated by natural instance Beauty is offpring of love; in order to abridge tranquil beauty of gemstones and radiant diamonds - embrace nature's treasures and jewels and transform a flight of life.

Blackbird replied with insolent rebuke:-'Silence! rude bramble! The blackbird was caught in a net, and some bough were cut to make a cage in order to imprison her, and among the rest were some cut from her tender privet to serve for the rods of the cage. Blackbird deprived of liberty The laurel and myrtle, on seeing the pear-tree being cut down cried out with a loud voice:-'O pear-tree where are you going? stripped of your branches crow on top of a lofty campanile The fluttering moth, not contented with its power to fly wherever it pleases through the air, enthralled by the seductive flame of the candle, resolved to fly into it and its joyous movement was the occasion of instant mourning.

Nut begin to burst open and to put its roots in among the crevices of the stones, and push them further out of its hollow. Twisted roots grew thicker they commenced to tear asunder the walls and force the ancient stones out of their old positions The bird on finding a nest of small birds approached them with great joy The tiny bird, he began to kiss it, and in his uncontrollable affection he gave it so many kisses The unhappy willow opened wide portals of imagination remaining in continual meditation and seeing in the world of plants - her branchees quivered in her intense joy the gourd is by nature more fitted to bind others than to be bound itself she lifted up her branches towards the sky and waited on the look out for some friendly bird to serve as intermediary of her desire rapacious falcon when your wings craved rest delights you have enjoyed among my branches in armorous dalliance with your companions nest be in the fork of my boughs together with your family without payment or any rent never admit upon her boughs any snakes or polecat, cocked his tail and lowered his head and casting himself loose from the bough let himself float on the wings; and beaking about with these in the floating air, seeking hither and thither, nd guiding himself using his tail as rudder, he came to ground. These soon began to grow, and as the branches increased and opened out they began to cover all the branches of the willow, and their great leaves shut away from it the beauty of the sun and the sky.

and although this sun is possessed of bodily substance its powers are incorporeal consisting of heat and radiance those circles at night seem to surround the moon, vary in sircomference and in their degree of redness are caused by the different degrees of thickness of the vapours which are situated at different altitudes between the moon and our eyes greater redness, there is a greater quantity of vapours the moon is not luminous in itself, but is well fitted to characterstics of light after the manner of the mirror or of water or any other shining body moon grows larger in the east and in the west like the sun and other planets every planet and star is further away from us when in the west than when it is overhead, by about thirty five thousand miles then when all we can see of the moon is illumined, and then from the reflection of the rays of the sun which strike upon it, and rebound towards us its ocean throws off less moisture to us eye sees it continually through atmosphere of greater density, alleging that objects seen through mist and water seem larger luminous body appears larger as it is farther away stars scattered throughout this dark expanse its light illumines all the celestial bodies which are distributed throughout the universe the stars are visible in night and not by the day owing to our being beneath the dense atmosphere which is full of an infinite number of particles of moisture each of these is lit up, when it is struck by the rays of the sun and consequently the innumerable radiant particles veil these stars; and if it were not for this atmosphere the sky would always show stars against the darkness when liquified bronze is at its maximum of heat it most resembles the sun in colour stars at night appear more brilliant in proportion as they are higher up, and that if they have no light of their own the shadow cast by the earth when it comes between them and the sun would come to darken them, since these stars neither see nor are seen by the solar body the rainbow is seen in the fine rains by those eyes which have the sun behind the cloud in front, and a perpetually imaginary line which starts from the centre of the sun and passes through the centre of the eye will end in the centre of the arch surface of the moon is smooth and polished, and that, like a mirror, it receives within itself the reflection of the earth the sea derives its radiance from the sun as does the moon, it could not show the reflected image of the earth, unless one also saw reflected there separately the orb of the sun and of each of the stars which look down upon it moon is another world similar to ours, and the part which it shines is a sea that reflects the sun and the part which does not is earth if the gilded balls were furrowed or made up of many small globukes like mulburries, which are black fruit of minute round balls, then each of the parts of this rounded mass visible to the sun and the eye will reveal to the eye the radiance produced by the reflection of the sun the lustre of the n, and when it is less hot it has nore of the colour of fireew moon is brighter and more powerful than when it is full; and this is due to the fact that the angle of the incidence is much more obtuse in the new moon than in the full moon, where the agles are extremely acute and the waves of moon reflect the sun both on their hollows and on their crests, and the side remains dark continous and far reaching splendour upon the surface of the sea the moon is opaque and solid body, and if on the contrary if it were transparent it would not receive the light of the sun the centre of the world cannot be the centre of the universal circles made by the course of glittering stars encompasser and enveloper of this centre between the sun and us there is darkness, and therefore the air appears blue atmosphere is concave towards the earth and convex towards fire discover exact dimensions, and in addition to this by means of the sphere of water to calculate the size of the earth the size of the moon I shall discover as I discover that of the sun, that is by means of its rays at midnight when it is at the full the luminous side of the moon is of the nature of a mirror, this part is illuminated by the solar rays and not produced by innumerable multitudes of the waves of that sea the side of the moon which shines consists of water and serves the body of the sun as a mirror which reflects the radiance it receives from it; and if this water were without waves it would show itself as small but of a radiance equal to that of sun considering that in progression upwards from the earth at every stage of altitude there is accession of lightness complete the luminous circle on the body of moon circle of radiance which the moon shows glimmer which is visible middle between the horns of the new moon ring of new radiance which completes the circle where the radiance of the tips of the horns illuminated by the sun ceases illuminated waves grow larger spherical-mirror eternal and more enduring different grades of weight there are many varieties of weights as there are of thicknesses shellfish in the rocks nature is on the point of creating stones it kind of produces a sticky paste very beautiful blue color perfection of this blue beautiful blue is created blueness from the particles pronounced blue transparent blue dark blue color piece of black velvet as is seen with blue glass in sapphires blue ray thin smoke becomes blue deeper blue better be in the company you will profit by seeing how to avoid their errors you will acquire something of the manner of anyone whose worth is better than yours a rather commandable envy will stimulate you to join the number of those who are more praised, for the praises of the others will serve you as a spur you will be ashamed of being seen in the ranks of draughtsmen if you are outclassed by them, and this feeling of shame will cause you to make progress in study praises of others will tend to increase your powers graceful and elegant movements it is necessary to know inner structure of man a knowledge of the sinews, muscles, and tendons will know exactly in the movement of any limb how many and which of sinews are the cause of it, and which by its contracting, and which sinews having been changed into most delicate cartilage surround and contain said muscle so he will be able in divers says and universally to indicate the various muscles by means of different attitudes of his figures no small grace in a painter to be able to give pleasing air to his figures, and whoever is not naturally possessed of this grace may aquire by means of study be on the watch to take the best parts of many beautiful faces of which the beauty is established rather by general repute than by your judgement fix them in your mind good attitudes from the figure, and you can correct the limbs by those which you have studied during the winter occupied with conderation and investigation of things which by seeing continually present before this eyes furnish food to be treasured up in the memory if you're accompanied even by one companion you only belong half to yourself if you must have companionship choose it from studio, it may then help you obtain the advantges which result from the different methods of study. All other companionship may prove harmful investigate the forms of natural objects duty of companionship endeavouring to realise your conceptions in art of the method of learning a right how to compare groups of figures in historical pictures power of judgement harmonize with the size of the body but also with its age limbs of youth should have few muscles and veins and have soft surface and pleasing in colours in man they should be sinewy and full of muscles in old men the surface should be wrinkled, and rough and covered with veins, and with sinews greatly protuding how little children have their joints is the reverse of those of men in thickness and this skin acts as a sinew to grid and bind together the bones give the extended light in half-tone, adding afterwards and the high-lihts and high lights contrasting in the same manner make a head so that its parts may fit into their true positions to make a head so that its features are in agreement with those of a head that turns and bends you know that the eyes, eyebrows, nostrils, corners of the mouth and sides of the chin, jaw, cheeks, ears and all parts of the face are placed at regular positions upon the face therefore when you have made the face, make lines which pass from one corner of the eye to the other; and also for the position of each feature. then having continued the ends of these lines beyond the two sides of the face, observe whether on the right and the left the spaces in the same parallel are equal you must make these lines extend to the point of your vision gracefully in harmony restricted light free light light of the luminous body treat first of the lights cast by windows to which you will give restricted light; then treat of the lights of landscape to which you will give the name of free light; then treat of the light of luminous bodies: the figure is most worthy of praise which by its action best expresses the passion which animates it the limbs should fit the body gracefully in harmony with the effect you wish the figure to produce; and if you desire to create a figure which possess a charm of its own, you should make it with limbs graceful and extented without too many muscles natural and pleasing joints moving freely horses galloping away from the throng, make little clouds of dust as far distant one from the another as is the space between the strides made by the horse ruddy glow to faces and the figures let the air be full of arrows going in various upwards, other falling, others flying horizontally;

towards the west it grows darker, and towards the east the damp vapour of the horizon shows brighter than the actual horizon the landscapes which occur in representation of winter should not show the mountains blue as one sees in the summer The mountains seen at a great distance that will seem deeper blue in color which is in itself darker; far when the trees are stripped of their leaves they look grey in colour and when they look grey in colour and when they are with their leaves they are green, and in proportion as the green is darker than the grey, the green will appear a more inrtense blue than the grey the defination of the blue colour of the atmosphere supplies the reason the landscapes are a deeper shade of blue in summer than in winter When the smoke from dry wood comes between the eye of the observer and some dark space it appears blue So the atmosphere appears blue because of the darkness which is beyond it; and if you look towards the horizon of the sky you will see the atmosphere is not blue, and this is due to its density; and so at every stage as you raise your eye up from this horizon to the sky On the top of the mountain the atmosphere will seem darker above you, just in proportion as it becomre rarer between you and said darkness; and this will be intensified at every successive stage of the height, so that at the last it will remain blue That smoke will appear the bluest which proceeds from the driest wood The finest rises the highest The under side of the leaf, although its colour in itself may be same as that of the right side, appears more beautiful and this colour is green verging upon yellow One belt of green behind another The high lights on the leaves, sun illumines the highlights the leaves Of the darker green seen from below The leaf is less transparent which takes the light at a more acute angle To represent landscapes with their trees, is to choose them with the sun in the sky is hidden, so fields receive diffused light Landscapes ought to be represented so that the trees are half in light and half in shadow; but it is better to make them when the sun is covered by clouds Grasses in the meadows When the sun is in the east grasses and meadows and the other small plants are of a most brilliant green; and this is due to the fact that the leaves illuminated by the sun within half our hemisphere namely the eastern half are transparent, while within the western semi circle the verdure has a somber hue and the air is damp and heavy of the color of dark ashes so that it is not transparent like that on the east, which is refulgent, and the more so as it is more full of moisture More moisture more green Less moisture dark blue The different shades of green of plants are as varied as are their species In the representation of trees in leaf be careful not to repeat same colour too often, for a tree which has another tree of the same colour as its background, but vary by making the foliage lighter or darker, or of a more vivid colour Blue of the atmosphere But leaves of yellowish green do not when they reflect the atmosphere create a reflection which verges on the blue Therefore the blue of the atmosphere reflected in the yellow of the leaf appears green, because blue and yellow mixed together form a most brilliant green The trees illuminated by the sun and the atmosphere, which have leaves of a dark colour, will be illuminated on one side by the atmosphere alone and in consequence of being illuminated will share its blueness; and on the opposite side they will be illuminated both by atmosphere and the sun, and the part which the eye sees illuminated by the sun will be resplendent The sun gives spirit and life to plants, and the earth nourishes them with moisture The leaf serves as a breast to nourish the branch or fruit which grows in the succeeding year The dark colours of the shadows of mountains at a great distance take a more beautiful and purer blue than those parts which are in light, and from this it follows that when the rock of the mountains is reddish the parts of it which re in light are fawn colored and the more brightly this illuminated the more closely will it retain its natural colour To represent landscapes, choose when the sun is at its meridian and turn to the west or the east, and then begin your work. All the trees which are towards the sun and which have the atmosphere for their background will be dark The line of equality and that of the horizon are the same Landscapes are of a more beautiful azure when in the fine weather the sun is at noon because atmosphere is free of moisture The leaves of the trees are between you and the sun are of five principal shades of colour: namely a green most beautiful shining and serving as a mirror for the atmosphere which lights up objects that cannot be seen by the sun, and the part in shadow The trees in landscapes are of various shades of green; for in some, such as firs, pines, cypress, laurels, box and the like, it borders on black; others such as walnuts and pears, vines and young foliage approximately to yellow; others to darker shades of yellow, such as chestnuts, oaks and the like others redden towards the autumn these are sorb, pomegranates, vines and cherry trees; others such as willows, olives, bamboos, and others like these, tend to become white.

There are two different kinds of light: free (freely illuminates bodies) and restricted (window or hole) Light of two different natures: separated to bodies and other united to bodies Separated is

Eternity Rings and Their Symbolism

How do you measure eternity? Well, if you believe in forever, then eternity is an endless celebration of love. And if you are among the lucky few who have finally found your endless love, then she deserves nothing less than the very best eternity rings on the market today.

The demand for eternity rings came as a result of the discovery in the 1950's of mines in the Soviet Union which produced a surplus of small diamonds. Diamond firm DeBeers created a demand for the small diamonds by convincing Americans (and later on the whole world) that the rings were important and a symbol of endless love.

Eternity rings are bands decorated with a continuous line of gemstones as a symbol of eternal love. However, all those stones around the rings can be very uncomfortable and therefore impractical to wear, so it has become acceptable to give a half-eternity ring but purportedly for eternity. Practicality has thus given rise to the popularity of half-eternity rings which are not only more comfortable to wear but also a lot easier to make. They are also less expensive.

While eternity rings made use of surplus small diamonds, the modern eternity ring now makes use of a variety of gemstones. So, which of these rings suit your fancy?

Diamond eternity rings

Diamonds were the original stones that made a lot of women’s hearts flutter when given not only as engagement rings but also as eternity rings. The half circle of diamonds lining up the band will not only remind your wives that while they have married you for richer or for poorer, your bank account status has somehow improved during the marriage. Nothing could be more romantic than giving diamond eternity rings after 20 years or marriage or more. If you opt for diamonds though, it would be ideal to go for the half eternity ring for comfort purposes and for resizing purposes later on.

White gold eternity rings

You can give these rings on just about any occasion although they are traditionally given after marriage, to celebrate the renewal of vows, after the birth of a child or during any milestone in the marriage. By choosing white gold eternity rings, you give yourself a wide array of choices when it comes to the design of the ring. Bands made of white gold are ideal for a variety of stones. The white finish, which is made possible by mixing yellow gold with other metals like silver or platinum and then plating them with rhodium, make a great backdrop for diamonds or colored stones.

Moissanite eternity rings

If you want to surprise your wife with a diamond ring but cannot afford a high-priced one, then choose a Moissanite eternity ring. This ring is not only affordable, but it  looks like the real thing. Even jewelers mistook Moissanites for diamonds when they first entered the market in 1998. Rings made of Moissanites are as brilliant and durable as diamonds rings. Hower, the earth’s supply of original Moissanites are limited because they are created from meteorites. Don’t fret though; there are lots of synthetic Moissanites manufactured in laboratories. So, instead of buying fake diamonds, why not buy a Moissanite rings?

Ruby eternity rings

If you want to flaunt your love then nothing beats the red eternity ring. The color of the ring is enough to ignite passion and intensity, two characteristics anyone would want to have in a relationship. A ring made of ruby is the perfect gift for couples who are celebrating their 15th or even their 40th wedding anniversary, but many people choose to give the gift of a ruby eternity ring on any occasion.

Emerald eternity rings

Emeralds have become coveted eternity rings not only because of their attractive green color, but also because of their healing powers. This gem is a fitting gift if your wife was born in the month of May. Emeralds become quite popular among Victorian royalty, and if you manage to get your hands on an authentic piece of jewelry dating back to the Victorian era, then chances are that you are in possession of a ring once owned by royalty. Choose emeralds with a bright and clear color.

You have a lot of choices when it comes to eternity rings, as they are available in a variety of bands and gemstones. Just make sure that you do not actually wait an eternity before you give your wife a ring and show her that you love her. Give her a gift that proves your desire to keep her in your company for life.

Famous Diamond Mines

Diamonds are made up entirely of carbon. Pressure (diamonds can’t form above 100 miles below the earths crust) and temperature (750+ degrees F) are the factors that “change” the diamond from mere carbon into a treasured commodity. After millions of years undergoing this pressure and heat, the rough stones are settled in diamond-bearing rock and from there, wait for a volcanic eruption to bring them to the surface.Diamond Mining Techniques
