His death occurred under circumstances which were peculiarly painful to his- parents. A younger brother, a delicate, sickly child from its birth, the next in age ,to hiro, had been down for nearly a. fortnight with an epidemic fever. In conse quence of the nature of the disease, every precau tion had been adopted that , prudence suggested,- to guard the other members cif the family against it. Bui of this one, the father's eldest,- he said he - had little to, fear, so .rugged was he, and .so generally healthy. ti,ll, however, he kept a vigiient eye upon him, and especially forbade his going into the pobls and docks near his school, which it was his custom sometimes to visit; for he was but 'a boy, and "boys ,will be boy - i," and we ought more frequently to think that it is their nature .to be.

Folios were written and handed in on the subject. When it came Milton's turn to hand in his poem, from which not much was .expec ted, he merely wrote on a slate one hip "The unconscious water saw its God, and blushed." The judges looked at each other in astonish [llPM-7-the laconic beauty, of the line and simple sublimity of the idea were, so striking.
