Excerpt from Antinous: A Romance of Ancient RomeThis lonely man, who remained incomprehensible even to friends and favorites, and whose mortal enemies, as Spartianus expresses himself, had first been his bosom friends, was devoted for a long time to a Bithynian youth, whom he loved as Socrates loved Alcibiades, and Caesar Brutus. This was Aniinom, with whose busts and statues Hadrian has filled the world. What a totally different impression the lad's thoughtful beauty produces upon us from the passion-seamed visage of the master, to whom he was the clearest thing in life. Inno cence and resignation, melancholy and aimless longing have found imperishable expression in these features. A head bowed 'mournfully, with waving locks falling low over the forehead, deep - set, mysterious eyes, brows gen tly curved, cheeks rounded like a girl's, which form a singular contrast to the sorrowful expression about the lips and the delicately-moulded chin: this is Antinous'. The thoughtful, earnest, spiritual head rests upon a strong neck and unusually broad breast, which reveals the athlete, while the body; with its daintily-formed limbs, is as perfect an ideal of beauty as artist ever dreamed in honor of Apollo or Hermes.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This assumes the various forms of muscular power, mental power, sensibility, emotion, 850.These results are secured through the agency of a multiplicity of invisible, interior actions, of which the system furnishes the arena.It is to these ultimate, elemental actions Of the matters comprising the body, that we are always to look for the causes of ill health, and it is to these to which all means Of correction, that is, remedial measures of whatever nature, are to be addressed.If we study these minute interior actions upon which life in all its modifications depends, we find two distinct phases of activity, with their corresponding results.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
