+_NEITHER DORKING NOR THE ABBEY_

+
+_NOTE_
+
+_In England recently there died a great man--the greatest of his day.
+Immediately there arose much vain contention as to whether or no his
+dust should be given resting place among that of his peers in
+Westminster Abbey. Finally came the decision that Westminster was not to
+be so honored; and the urn containing all of him that had outlived the
+fire was placed in the sunny graveyard of Dorking village. Looking down
+toward it from the long level summit of Box Hill--his hill,--with the
+sunlight glinting from its marbles and along the silver Mole that winds
+threadlike beside it, the little cemetery seems almost a living cheerful
+thing in the dark green of the surrounding landscape. Surely here, if
+anywhere, was appropriate resting-place for this great lover of life and
+joy._
+
+_The tribute to Meredith contained in the following pages, perhaps the
+most fitting and beautiful of any inspired by his death, was originally
+published in the London "Westminster Gazette" for May 26, 1909._
+
+
+
+
+_NEITHER DORKING NOR THE ABBEY_
+
+
+All morning there had been a little gathering of people outside the
+gate. The funeral coach came, and a very small thing was placed in it
+and covered with flowers. One plant of the wallflower in the garden
+would have covered it. The coach took the road to Dorking, followed by a
+few others, and in a moment or two all seemed silent and deserted, the
+cottage, the garden, and Box Hill.
+
+The cottage was not deserted, as they knew who now trooped into the
+round in front of it, their eyes on the closed door. They were the
+mighty company, his children,--Lucy and Clara and Rhoda and Diana and
+Rose and old Mel and Roy Richmond and Adrian and Sir Willoughby and a
+hundred others, and they stood in line against the box-wood, waiting for
+him to come out. Each of his women carried a flower, and the hands of
+all his men were ready for the salute.
+
+In the room on the right, in an armchair which had been his home for
+years--to many the throne of letters in this country--sat an old man,
+like one forgotten in an empty house. When the last sound of the
+coaches had passed away he moved in his chair. He wore grey clothes and
+a red tie, and his face was rarely beautiful, but the hair was white and
+the limbs were feeble, and the wonderful eyes dimmed, and he was hard of
+hearing. He moved in his chair, for something was happening to him, and
+it was this, old age was falling from him. This is what is meant by
+death to such as he, and the company waiting knew. His eyes became again
+those of the eagle, and his hair was brown, and the lustiness of youth
+was in his frame, but still he wore the red tie. He rose, and not a
+moment did he remain within the house, for "golden lie the meadows,
+golden run the streams," and "the fields and the waters shout to him
+golden shouts." He flung open the door, as they knew he would do who
+were awaiting him, and he stood there looking at them, a general
+reviewing his troops. They wore the pretty clothing in which he had
+loved to drape them; they were not sad like the mourners who had gone,
+but happy as the forget-me-nots and pansies at their feet and the lilac
+overhead, for they knew that this was his coronation day. Only one was
+airily in mourning, as knowing better than the others what fitted the
+occasion, the Countess de Saldar. He recognized her sense of the fitness
+of things with a bow. The men saluted, the women gave their flowers to
+Dahlia to give to him, so that she should have his last word, and he
+took their offerings and passed on. They did not go with him, they went
+their ways to carry his glory through the world.
+
+Without knowing why, for his work was done, he turned to the left,
+passing his famous cherry-blossom, and climbed between apple-trees to a
+little house of two rooms, whence most of that noble company had sprung.
+He went there only because he had gone so often, and this time the door
+was locked; he did not know why nor care. He came swinging down the
+path, singing lustily, and calling to his dogs, his dogs of the present
+and the past; and they yelped with joy, for they knew they were once
+again to breast the hill with him.
+
+He strode up the hill whirling his staff, for which he had no longer any
+other use. His hearing was again so acute that from far away on the
+Dorking road he could hear the rumbling of a coach. There came to him
+somehow a knowledge (it was the last he ever knew of little things) that
+people had been at variance as to whether a casket of dust should be
+laid away in one hole or in another, and he flung back his head with the
+old glorious action, and laughed a laugh "broad as a thousand beeves at
+pasture."
+
+Box Hill was no longer deserted. When a great man dies--and this was one
+of the greatest since Shakespeare--the immortals await him at the top of
+the nearest hill. He looked up and saw his peers. They were all young,
+like himself. He waved the staff in greeting. One, a mere stripling,
+"slight unspeakably," detached himself from the others, crying
+gloriously as he recognized his master, "Here's the fellow I have been
+telling you about!" and ran down the hill to be the first to take his
+hand. In the meantime an empty coach was rolling on to Dorking.
+

+ _G. M._
+
+ _1828-1909._
+
+
+ _Forty years back, when much had place
+ That since has perished out of mind,
+ I heard that voice and saw that face._
+
+ _He spoke as one afoot will wind
+ A morning horn ere men awake;
+ His note was trenchant, turning kind._
+
+ _He was of those whose wit can shake
+ And riddle to the very core
+ The counterfeits that Time will break...._
+
+ _Of late, when we two met once more,
+ The luminous countenance and rare
+ Shone just as forty years before._
+
+ _So that, when now all tongues declare
+ His shape unseen by his green hill,
+ I scarce believe he sits not there._
+
+ _No matter. Further and further still
+ Through the world's vaporous vitiate air
+ His words wing on--as live words will._
+
+ THOMAS HARDY.

-works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
-"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or

-property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
-computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by

-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
-including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
-because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
-people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
-To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
-and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
-and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org
-
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive

-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
-SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
-particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
-To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
-works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project
-Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
-unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
-keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
-
- www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-_NOTE_
-
-_In England recently there died a great man--the greatest of his day.
-Immediately there arose much vain contention as to whether or no his
-dust should be given resting place among that of his peers in
-Westminster Abbey. Finally came the decision that Westminster was not to
-be so honored; and the urn containing all of him that had outlived the
-fire was placed in the sunny graveyard of Dorking village. Looking down
-toward it from the long level summit of Box Hill--his hill,--with the
-sunlight glinting from its marbles and along the silver Mole that winds
-threadlike beside it, the little cemetery seems almost a living cheerful
-thing in the dark green of the surrounding landscape. Surely here, if
-anywhere, was appropriate resting-place for this great lover of life and
-joy._
-
-_The tribute to Meredith contained in the following pages, perhaps the
-most fitting and beautiful of any inspired by his death, was originally
-published in the London "Westminster Gazette" for May 26, 1909._
-
-
-
-
-_NEITHER DORKING NOR THE ABBEY_
-
-
-All morning there had been a little gathering of people outside the
-gate. The funeral coach came, and a very small thing was placed in it
-and covered with flowers. One plant of the wallflower in the garden
-would have covered it. The coach took the road to Dorking, followed by a
-few others, and in a moment or two all seemed silent and deserted, the
-cottage, the garden, and Box Hill.
-
-The cottage was not deserted, as they knew who now trooped into the
-round in front of it, their eyes on the closed door. They were the
-mighty company, his children,--Lucy and Clara and Rhoda and Diana and
-Rose and old Mel and Roy Richmond and Adrian and Sir Willoughby and a
-hundred others, and they stood in line against the box-wood, waiting for
-him to come out. Each of his women carried a flower, and the hands of
-all his men were ready for the salute.
-
-In the room on the right, in an armchair which had been his home for
-years--to many the throne of letters in this country--sat an old man,
-like one forgotten in an empty house. When the last sound of the
-coaches had passed away he moved in his chair. He wore grey clothes and
-a red tie, and his face was rarely beautiful, but the hair was white and
-the limbs were feeble, and the wonderful eyes dimmed, and he was hard of
-hearing. He moved in his chair, for something was happening to him, and
-it was this, old age was falling from him. This is what is meant by
-death to such as he, and the company waiting knew. His eyes became again
-those of the eagle, and his hair was brown, and the lustiness of youth
-was in his frame, but still he wore the red tie. He rose, and not a
-moment did he remain within the house, for "golden lie the meadows,
-golden run the streams," and "the fields and the waters shout to him
-golden shouts." He flung open the door, as they knew he would do who
-were awaiting him, and he stood there looking at them, a general
-reviewing his troops. They wore the pretty clothing in which he had
-loved to drape them; they were not sad like the mourners who had gone,
-but happy as the forget-me-nots and pansies at their feet and the lilac
-overhead, for they knew that this was his coronation day. Only one was
-airily in mourning, as knowing better than the others what fitted the
-occasion, the Countess de Saldar. He recognized her sense of the fitness
-of things with a bow. The men saluted, the women gave their flowers to
-Dahlia to give to him, so that she should have his last word, and he
-took their offerings and passed on. They did not go with him, they went
-their ways to carry his glory through the world.
-
-Without knowing why, for his work was done, he turned to the left,
-passing his famous cherry-blossom, and climbed between apple-trees to a
-little house of two rooms, whence most of that noble company had sprung.
-He went there only because he had gone so often, and this time the door
-was locked; he did not know why nor care. He came swinging down the
-path, singing lustily, and calling to his dogs, his dogs of the present
-and the past; and they yelped with joy, for they knew they were once
-again to breast the hill with him.
-
-He strode up the hill whirling his staff, for which he had no longer any
-other use. His hearing was again so acute that from far away on the
-Dorking road he could hear the rumbling of a coach. There came to him
-somehow a knowledge (it was the last he ever knew of little things) that
-people had been at variance as to whether a casket of dust should be
-laid away in one hole or in another, and he flung back his head with the
-old glorious action, and laughed a laugh "broad as a thousand beeves at
-pasture."
-
-Box Hill was no longer deserted. When a great man dies--and this was one
-of the greatest since Shakespeare--the immortals await him at the top of
-the nearest hill. He looked up and saw his peers. They were all young,
-like himself. He waved the staff in greeting. One, a mere stripling,
-"slight unspeakably," detached himself from the others, crying
-gloriously as he recognized his master, "Here's the fellow I have been
-telling you about!" and ran down the hill to be the first to take his
-hand. In the meantime an empty coach was rolling on to Dorking.

-
- _Forty years back, when much had place
- That since has perished out of mind,
- I heard that voice and saw that face._
-
- _He spoke as one afoot will wind
- A morning horn ere men awake;
- His note was trenchant, turning kind._
-
- _He was of those whose wit can shake
- And riddle to the very core
- The counterfeits that Time will break...._
-
- _Of late, when we two met once more,
- The luminous countenance and rare
- Shone just as forty years before._
-
- _So that, when now all tongues declare
- His shape unseen by his green hill,
- I scarce believe he sits not there._
-
- _No matter. Further and further still
- Through the world's vaporous vitiate air
- His words wing on--as live words will._

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
-including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
-because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
-people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
-To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
-and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
-and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org
-
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive

-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
-SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
-particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
-To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
-works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project
-Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
-unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
-keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
-
- www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
