Leisure

In the matter of small or capital letters, I have followed the old copy, except in one or two places where a personification seemed not plainly enough marked to a modern reader without a capital.

Thus, in Il Pensaroso, line 49, I print Leisure, L-E-A-S-U-R-E with a capital L, although both editions read leisure and in the vacation exercise line seventy one times with a capital t for times with a small t also where the employment or omission of a capital is plainly due to misprinting as too frequently in the sixteen seventy three edition i silently make the correction examples are notes with a small n for notes with a capital in sonnet seventeen line thirteen anointed with a capital a for anointed with a small a in some two nine twelve in regard to punctuation i have followed the old printers except in obvious misprints and followed them also as far as possible in their distribution of roman and italic type and in the grouping of words and lines in the various titles to follow them exactly was impossible as the books are so very different in size at this point the candid reader may perhaps ask what advantage is gained by presenting these poems to modern readers in the dress of a bygone age if the question were put to me i should probably evade it by pointing out that mr froude is issuing an edition based upon this in which the spelling is frankly that of to-day but if the question were pressed i think a sufficient answer might be found to begin with i should point out that even professor masson who in his excellent edition argues the point and decides in favor of modern spelling allows that there are peculiarities of milton's spelling which are really significant and ought therefore to be noted or preserved but who is to determine exactly which words are spelled according to the poet's own instructions and which according to the printer's It is notorious that in Paradise Lost some words were spelt upon a deliberate system, and it may very well happen that in the volume of minor poems which the poet saw through the press in 1645, there were spellings no less systematic.

Professor Masson makes a great point of the fact that Milton's own spelling, exhibited in the autograph manuscript of some of the minor poems preserved in Trinity College, Cambridge, does not correspond with that of the printed copy.

Note.

This is certainly true, as the reader may see for himself by comparing the passage from the manuscript given in the appendix with the corresponding place in the text.

Milton's own spelling revels in redundant E's, while the printer of the 1645 book is very sparing of them.

All right.

Anyway, b- but to your larger question, um, I will have a lot more free time.

I will have weekends free, and I looked at the, the schedule.

It's weird.

Safe driving out there.

i went camping kind of uh for the first time two weeks ago.

And I'll say kind of because we didn't actually overnight, but we did drive out to the water.

So today, to help you with your English language learning, I'm going to talk about that trip.

So this will help you with everyday English for travel and leisure activities.

That's leisure, L-E-I-S-U-R-E.

That means what you do when you're not at work.

There'll also be some geography and some lovely Lake District place names.

Oh, his talk was so good.

His talk was called Leisure in a Time of Robots, the Benedictine Model of Life as a Template for Missional Place.

Yes.

He argued that as artificial intelligence takes over more of our labor, more of our cognitive tasks, we desperately need to reclaim the classical philosophical understanding of leisure.

9-1-3-3-8-10-8-10, the phone number to be a part of the show, part of the game we call Sports or Leisure, where we give away $25 to Johnny's Tavern, 10 area locations, including Lawrence and Topeka.

Who has been waiting the longest? That is...

Chuck, next up, or first up on Sports or Leisure on Sports Radio 810 WHB.

Chuck, what side do you want to start with, man, sports or leisure?

Why does struggling for something make it more satisfying? And why can getting what you want leave you feeling flat? Well, in this week's episode, I sit down with Arthur Brooks, one of the world's leading voices on the science of happiness, for a conversation that might just change how you feel about your life.

Arthur is a professor at Vanderbilt University, senior fellow of Harvard Business School, and best-selling author of multiple books, including his very latest, The Meaning of Your Life.

In our conversation, Arthur shares what he calls his three macronutrients of a happy life, enjoyment, satisfaction, and meaning.

We discuss the genetics of happiness, the concept of earned success, and the difference between enjoyment and pleasure.

It's so interesting that all these kind of different lenses through which we can look at happiness because, of course, I think happiness is something that we all want.

Yeah.

Right? I know it's maybe a bit more fashionable these days to say it's not about happiness, it's about meaning, when it's interesting because y- your last two books, one was on happiness, one i-

Yeah
