The strong bent of nature is seen in the proportion which this topic of personal relations usurps in the conversation of society. What do we wish to know of any worthy person so much, as how he has sped in the history of this sentiment? What books in the circulating libraries circulate? How we glow over these novels of passion, when the story is told with any spark of truth and nature! And what fastens attention, in the intercourse of life, like any passage betraying affection between two parties? Perhaps we never saw them before, and never shall meet them again. But we see them exchange a glance, or betray a deep emotion, and we are no longer strangers. We understand them, and take the warmest interest in the development of the romance. All mankind love a lover. The earliest demonstrations of complacency and kindness are nature's most winning pictures. It is the dawn of civility and grace in the coarse and rustic. The rude village boy teases the girls about the school-house door;--but today he comes running into the entry, and meets one fair child disposing her satchel; he holds her books to help her, and instantly it seems to him as if she removed herself from him infinitely, and was a sacred precinct.

Among the throng of girls he runs rudely enough, but one alone distances him; and these two little neighbours, that were so close just now, have learned to respect each other's personality. Or who can avert his eyes from the engaging, half-artful, half-artless ways of school-girls who go into the country shops to buy a skein of silk or a sheet of paper, and talk half an hour about nothing with the broad-faced, good-natured shop-boy. In the village they are on a perfect equality, which love delights in, and without any coquetry the happy, affectionate nature of woman flows out in this pretty gossip. The girls may have little beauty, yet plainly do they establish between them and the good boy the most agreeable, confiding relations, what with their fun and their earnest, about Edgar, and Jonas, and Almira, and who was invited to the party, and who danced at the dancing-school, and when the singing-school would begin, and other nothings concerning which the parties cooed. By and by that boy wants a wife, and very truly and heartily will he know where to find a sincere and sweet mate, without any risk such as Milton deplores as incident to scholars and great men.

I have been told, that in some public discourses of mine my reverence for the intellect has made me unjustly cold to the personal relations. But now I almost shrink at the remembrance of such disparaging words. For persons are love's world, and the coldest philosopher cannot recount the debt of the young soul wandering here in nature to the power of love, without being tempted to unsay, as treasonable to nature, aught derogatory to the social instincts. For, though the celestial rapture falling out of heaven seizes only upon those of tender age, and although a beauty overpowering all analysis or comparison, and putting us quite beside ourselves, we can seldom see after thirty years, yet the remembrance of these visions outlasts all other remembrances, and is a wreath of flowers on the oldest brows. But here is a strange fact; it may seem to many men, in revising their experience, that they have no fairer page in their life's book than the delicious memory of some passages wherein affection contrived to give a witchcraft surpassing the deep attraction of its own truth to a parcel of accidental and trivial circumstances.

In looking backward, they may find that several things which were not the charm have more reality to this groping memory than the charm itself which embalmed them. But be our experience in particulars what it may, no man ever forgot the visitations of that power to his heart and brain, which created all things new; which was the dawn in him of music, poetry, and art; which made the face of nature radiant with purple light, the morning and the night varied enchantments; when a single tone of one voice could make the heart bound, and the most trivial circumstance associated with one form is put in the amber of memory; when he became all eye when one was present, and all memory when one was gone; when the youth becomes a watcher of windows, and studious of a glove, a veil, a ribbon, or the wheels of a carriage; when no place is too solitary, and none too silent, for him who has richer company and sweeter conversation in his new thoughts, than any old friends, though best and purest, can give him; for the figures, the motions, the words of the beloved object are not like other images written in water, but, as Plutarch said, "enamelled in fire," and make the study of midnight.

I heard a thousand blended notes
While in a grove I sat reclined,
In that sweet mood when pleasant thoughts
Bring sad thoughts to the mind.

grove : (작은) 숲, 수풀 / (특정 종류의 유실수가 심어져 있는) 밭, (작은 규모의) 과수원 

recline : 비스듬히 기대다(눕다)

To her fair works did Nature link
The human soul that through me ran;
And much it grieved my heart to think
What Man has made of Man.

grieve : 비통해하다 / 대단히 슬프게 만들다 (= pain)

Through primrose tufts, in that sweet bower,
The periwinkle trailed its wreaths;
And 'tis my faith that every flower
Enjoys the air it breathes.

wreath : 화환, 화관

The birds around me hopped and played,
Their thoughts I cannot measure -
But the least motion which they made
It seemed a thrill of pleasure.

The budding twigs spread out their fan
To catch the breezy air;
And I must think, do all I can,
That there was pleasure there.

twig : (나무의) 잔가지

If this belief from heaven be sent,
If such be Nature's holy plan,
Have I not reason to lament
What Man has made of Man?

lament : 애통[한탄/통탄]하다 (=bemoan, bewail) 

ESSAY V Love

Every promise of the soul has innumerable fulfilments; each of its joys ripens into a new want. Nature, uncontainable, flowing, forelooking, in the first sentiment of kindness anticipates already a benevolence which shall lose all particular regards in its general light. The introduction to this felicity is in a private and tender relation of one to one, which is the enchantment of human life; which, like a certain divine rage and enthusiasm, seizes on man at one period, and works a revolution in his mind and body; unites him to his race, pledges him to the domestic and civic relations, carries him with new sympathy into nature, enhances the power of the senses, opens the imagination, adds to his character heroic and sacred attributes, establishes marriage, and gives permanence to human society.

innumerable : 셀 수 없는, 무수한 (= countless)

fulfilment : 실천, 실행, 완성, 달성, 성취

forelooking : 미리 보기 (= preview)

benevolence : 자비심, 박애 / 자선, 선행

felicity : 더할 나위없는 행복 / 절묘하게 어울림

enchantment : 황홀감 / 마법에 걸린 상태

pledge : 약속하다, 맹세하다, 서약하다

The natural association of the sentiment of love with the heyday of the blood seems to require, that in order to portray it in vivid tints, which every youth and maid should confess to be true to their throbbing experience, one must not be too old. The delicious fancies of youth reject the least savour of a mature philosophy, as chilling with age and pedantry their purple bloom. And, therefore, I know I incur the imputation of unnecessary hardness and stoicism from those who compose the Court and Parliament of Love. But from these formidable censors I shall appeal to my seniors. For it is to be considered that this passion of which we speak, though it begin with the young, yet forsakes not the old, or rather suffers no one who is truly its servant to grow old, but makes the aged participators of it, not less than the tender maiden, though in a different and nobler sort. For it is a fire that, kindling its first embers in the narrow nook of a private bosom, caught from a wandering spark out of another private heart, glows and enlarges until it warms and beams upon multitudes of men and women, upon the universal heart of all, and so lights up the whole world and all nature with its generous flames. It matters not, therefore, whether we attempt to describe the passion at twenty, at thirty, or at eighty years. He who paints it at the first period will lose some of its later, he who paints it at the last, some of its earlier traits. Only it is to be hoped that, by patience and the Muses' aid, we may attain to that inward view of the law, which shall describe a truth ever young and beautiful, so central that it shall commend itself to the eye, at whatever angle beholden.

heyday : 전성기, 한장 때 (= prime)

throbbing : 두근거리는, 고동치는, 약동하는

pedantry : 지나치게 규칙을 찾음

incur : (좋지 못한 것을) 초래하다, 발생시키다

imputation : (죄 등을) 돌림, 전가 (= accusation) / 비난, 비방, 오명

stoicism : 극기(심), 금욕 / 스토아 철학

kindling : 불쏘시개

ember : (장작·숯이 타다 남은) 잉걸불

nook : (아늑하고 조용한) 곳, 구석

bosom : 가슴

inward : 마음 속의 / 안쪽(내부)으로 향한

And the first condition is, that we must leave a too close and lingering adherence to facts, and study the sentiment as it appeared in hope and not in history. For each man sees his own life defaced and disfigured, as the life of man is not, to his imagination. Each man sees over his own experience a certain stain of error, whilst that of other men looks fair and ideal. Let any man go back to those delicious relations which make the beauty of his life, which have given him sincerest instruction and nourishment, he will shrink and moan. Alas! I know not why, but infinite compunctions embitter in mature life the remembrances of budding joy, and cover every beloved name. Every thing is beautiful seen from the point of the intellect, or as truth. But all is sour, if seen as experience. Details are melancholy; the plan is seemly and noble. In the actual world — the painful kingdom of time and place — dwell care, and canker, and fear. With thought, with the ideal, is immortal hilarity, the rose of joy. Round it all the Muses sing. But grief cleaves to names, and persons, and the partial interests of today and yesterday.

lingering : (쉬 끝나거나 사라지지 않고) 오래 가는

adherence : 고수(충실하게 지키는 것)

deface : (특히 무엇의 표면에 글을 쓰거나 그림을 그리거나 하여) 외관을 훼손하다

compunction : 죄책감, 거리낌

embitter : (오랜 시간 동안) 원통하게(쓰라리게) 만들다 

canker : (사회의) 병폐 / (동물의) 궤양

hilarity : 아주 우스움, 재미있음

cleave to : 부착(점착)하다 / 고수하다, ~에 집착하다

Later this month, the nation’s largest-ever celebration of educational opportunity will kick off.

During National School Choice Week (Jan 26-Feb 1), 50,000 events and activities around the nation will raise awareness about K-12 education choices.

The real impact of school choice is what gives the Week such energy.

kick off : 시작하다. 개시하다.

A learning environment can change a life, sometimes unexpectedly.

Remember the Dr. Seuss story featuring a character who, until he actually tries it, insists a dish of green eggs and ham is not for him?

As President of National School Choice Week, I have the joy each month of hearing students, parents, and educators around the country share their own "green eggs and ham" moments.

A teacher who was ready to leave the education field – until she overcame her skepticism about teaching in a virtual school.

A mom who never dreamed she’d homeschool – until her son’s medical needs led her to discover its benefits.

A student who felt out of place in his previous school, but is now happy and thriving in a different traditional public school.

That’s the power of school choice.

green egg : 무정란

overcome : 극복하다

skepticism : 회의론, 회의적인 태도

virtual : 사실상의 (= real, actual)

feel out of place : 겉돌다, 사람들과 어울리지 못하다

All children learn differently and families’ needs vary.

In the midst of healthy differences and human change, choice empowers families to access the learning environments that work for them now.

School choice recognizes that parents are best positioned to know their child’s passion for botany, reading struggles, or penchant for drawing quirky cartoons.

And those same parents are best qualified to choose their children’s learning environments.

botany : 식물학

penchant : 애호 / a penchant for : ~에 대한 기호

quirky : 별난, 기발한

National School Choice Week celebrates traditional public, public charter, magnet, private, online, and home education.

We celebrate and support families, too, whichever type of school they choose.

That’s because when families and schools bring their gifts together, students succeed.

All children deserve to close their school books at the end of each week inspired and equipped to give back.

charter : 헌장

charter school : 헌장 학교 (* 지역 학교 위원회에서 독립적으로 기능하는 공립학교인데, 종종 교육 시스템의 다른 학교들과는 다른 교과 과정과 교육 철학을 가지고 있다.)

magnet school : 특성화 공립학교 (* 인종이나 통학 구역에 관계없이 다닐 수 있는 뛰어난 설비와 교육 과정을 갖춘 학교 / 다른 지역 학생들을 유치하기 위해 일부 교과목에 대해 특수반을 운영하는 대도시 학교)

equip : (필요한 지식 등을 가르쳐) 준비를 갖춰 주다 

So, if you love your school, celebrate it during School Choice Week!

If you’re searching for a school, be willing to try something new to find the right fit.

You might have a green-eggs-and-ham moment, when your child’s frustration with learning turns into an excited "I do love it!"

frustration : 좌절
