"In the dozen years before 1640, some 15,000 Englishmen crossed the Atlantic in order to establish a 'Holy Commonwealth' in which that way of lif .....

.... years, and some of Vivaldi's violin concertos and sonatas exist only as transcriptions, mostly for harpsichord, made by Bach.

.... relate to this dilemma but it is the fact that Cyrano is able to overcome it that makes him a hero. Not only is Cyrano filled with emotion, but he also goes out of his way to live life to the fullest. Cyrano's introduction to the reader definitely leaves a lasting impression. Not only does he banish an actor from the theater for performing poorly, but he proceeds to recite poetry while dueling with another member of the audience. Every moment of Cyrano's life is filled with action like this. When he was informed that one hundred men were going to kill his friend, Ligniére, he was thrilled with the idea of fighting all these .....

.... of the daffodils, instead of say, the tops, or buds. The difference in this is, however, that Dorothy Wordsworth has her daffodils "rest [ing] their heads upon these stones as on a pillow for weariness" (Norton, 293) while William Wordsworth, in a quite different vein, has his daffodils "Tossing their heads in a sprightly dance," which is also another reference to the dancing of the daffodils. (Norton, 186) As for which rendition of this minor event I prefer, I must say that I find Dorothy Wordsworth's description much better.
