rse, the rest of theworld's experience can be no guide in his case. Alas! alas! erethirty he has joined the ranks of the sneerers. It is not his fault.
Our passions,Christopher Tanev Tröjor, both the good and bad,Vince Dunn Tröjor, cease with our blushes. We donot hate,Jake Gardiner Tröjor, nor grieve, nor joy, nor despair in our thirties like we didin our teens. Disappointment does not suggest suicide, and we quaffsuccess without intoxication.
We take all things in a minor key as we grow older. There are fewmajestic passages in the later acts of life's opera. Ambition takes aless ambitious aim. Honor becomes more reasonable and convenientlyadapts itself to circumstances. And love--love dies. "Irreverencefor the dreams of youth" soon creeps like a killing frost upon ourhearts. The tender shoots and the expanding flowers are nipped andwithered, and of a vine that yearned to stretch its tendrils round theworld there is left but a sapless stump.
My fair friends will deem all this rank heresy, I know. So far from aman's not loving after he has passed boyhood, it is not till there isa good deal of gray in his hair that they think his protestations atall worthy of attention. Young ladies take their notions of our sexfrom the novels written by their own, and compared with themonstrosities that masquerade for men in the pages of that nightmareliterature, Pythagoras' plucked bird and Frankenstein's demon werefair average specimens of humanity.
In these so-called books, the chief lover, or Greek god, as he isadmiringly referred to--by the way, they do not say which "Greek god"it is that the gentleman bears such a striking likeness to; it mightbe hump-backed Vulcan, or double-faced Janus,CG Menn Bromley Bomber, or even drivelingSilenus, the god of abstruse mysteries.

But oh! the depth andstrength of this elderly party's emotion for some bread-and-butterschool-girl! Hide your heads, ye young Romeos and Leanders! this_blase_ old beau loves with an hysterical fervor that requires fouradjectives to every noun to properly describe.

Indeed,Blake Wheeler Tröjor, a man's sluggish current may not be called love, compared withthe rushing fountain that wells up when a boy's heart is struck withthe heavenly rod.
