One of them makes verses and takes care to consult Hesychius' Lexicon. Something there immediately assures him that he is destined to be an imitator of Æschylus, and leads him to believe, indeed, that he 'has something in common with' Æschylus: the miserable poetaster! ONE OF THEM MAKES VERSES AND TAKES CARE TO CONSULT HESEUS'S LEXICON SOMETHING THERE IMMEDIATELY ASSURES HIM THAT HE IS DESTINED TO BE AN IMITATOR OF A ESCALUS AND LEADS HIM TO BELIEVE INDEED THAT HE HAS SOMETHING IN COMMON WITH A ESCALUS THE MISERABLE POETASTER
, as compared with us, did that young brood build its miserable nests in the midst of the magnificent temples! A powerful voice from every nook and cranny should ring in the ears of those who, from the day they begin their connection with the university, roam at will with such self-complacency and shamelessness among the awe-inspiring relics of that noble civilisation: 'Hence, ye uninitiated, who will never be initiated; fly away in silence and shame from these sacred chambers!' But this voice speaks in vain; for one must to some extent be a Greek to understand a Greek curse of excommunication. But these people I am speaking of are so barbaric that they dispose of these relics to suit themselves: all their modern conveniences and fancies are brought with them and concealed among those ancient pillars and tombstones, and it gives rise to great rejoicing when somebody finds, among the dust and cobwebs of antiquity, something that he himself had slyly hidden there not so very long before. OOLLY AND FEARLESSLY AS COMPARED WITH US DID THAT YOUNG BROOD BUILD ITS MISERABLE NESTS IN THE MIDST OF THE MAGNIFICENT TEMPLES A POWERFUL VOICE FROM EVERY NOOK AND CRANNY SHOULD RING IN THE EARS OF THOSE WHO FROM THE DAY THEY BEGAN THEIR CONNECTION WITH THE UNIVERSITY ROAM AT WILL WITH SUCH SELF COMPLACENCY AND SHAMELESSNESS AMONG THE AWE INSPIRING RELICS OF THAT NOBLE CIVILIZATION HENCE YE UNINITIATED WHO WILL NEVER BE INITIATED FLY AWAY IN SILENCE AND SHAME FROM THESE SACRED CHAMBERS BUT THIS VOICE SPEAKS IN VAIN FOR ONE MUST TO SOME EXTENT BE A GREEK TO UNDERSTAND A GREEK CURSE OF EXCOMMUNICATION BUT THESE PEOPLE I AM SPEAKING OF ARE SO BARBARIC THAT THEY DISPOSE OF THESE RELICS TO SUIT THEMSELVES ALL THEIR MODERN CONVENIENCES AND FANCIES ARE BROUGHT WITH THEM AND CONCEALED AMONG THOSE ANCIENT PILLARS AND TOMBSTONES AND IT GIVES RISE TO THE GREAT REJOICING WHEN SOMEBODY FINDS AMONG THE DUST AND COBWEBS OF ANTIQUITY SOMETHING THAT HE HIMSELF HAD SLYLY HIDDEN THERE NOT SO LONG BEFORE
