SOPHRON X15108.
A Grecian Tale.
Soplironinios was born at Thebes; his
father, of an ancient family of Corinth,
and left the place of his nativity to estab-
lish himself in the capital of Ba:otia.——
\Vhile his only son was yet a child he
died, and his wife, not long surviving him,
Soplironimos at the early age of .twelve
was left a portioiiless orphan.
Of the many things of which he stood
in need,he had only regretted his parents;
the poor child would daily weep at their
tomb, and afterwards return to the d\vell-
ing ofa priest of Minerva,whose charity
prevented him from starving.
One day,wlicn walking through the city,
the unhappy Sophroiiinios lost his way,
he entered a work shop belonging to the
celebrated Praxiteles. Charmed at the
sight of so many beautiful statues, he
gazed, be admired, and seized with an
involuntary transport, he addressed I’rxi-
tcles with that innocent confidence which
only belongs to infancy.
“Father,” said he,” give me a cnisel,
and teach me to become avgtteat man like
yourself!" The sculptor looked at the
lovely child and was astonished at the aiii-
mation which shone in his eyes ; lie em-
braced liiin-—“ Yes, I will be your inas-
ter,”replied he ;" stay with‘ me,an'd I trust
that in time you will surpass me.”
The youthful Sophronimos, his heart
filled with gratitude and joy,h:id no desire
to leave Praxitelcs, but soon felt the germ
of talent whichnature had implanted in his
soul rapidly expanding; and-at eighteen
the master would not have blushed to own
the works of his pupil.
Unhappily about this period Praxitcles
died, leaving by his will a tolerable large
sum to his favorite pupil. Sophronimos
Was incosolable at his loss ;_ he took a dis-
like to Thebes quitted his .country,and cin-
ployed his benefactor’s legacy in travell-
ing through Greece. ‘
45 whcreverlie went he bore with him
that desire ofins°ruction«and admiration of ..
the sublime and beautiful which hafl infla-
med his mind even in childhood he daily
gathered IlTlpI‘OV€'DZt!‘.llt and each master-
piece he beheld added something to" his
store of knowledge. 7 The wish of pleasing
gave a polish to his-mind and manner ;
his modesty increasing with his acquire

was the most skilful aswel] u
amiable of men. I _

' Soplironimos, “Iliad the tcinerity to form
5 ed; but I perceive that I must make it
y and soon our hero was forgotten. Aris-
and prepared for the future, he returned
thanks. to the gods,‘ and retired to enjoy
repose.’ ‘
_ 'l‘h'is tranquility did not, however, last
‘long; the . ‘only cnimy that can rob
virtue ofpeiicc, assilcd our hero. Carite,
the (I;1|]3‘lt[t;3I' of Aristos, chcif magistrate
of Milctus, came with her father to see
the works of our youthful Thebnn.
Carite,in beauty, far surpased the farist
maid.-; of Iona, and her mind was still
lovelier than her face. Her father, 4 ristos,
who posscscd immcnsc riches, had, since
her birth, dedicated his wlinlc time to her
education: he had nodificulty iiubeiiding
her mind towards virtue, (1lltI—Ile IIlVlSII(‘tl

iiameiital acquircmciit. Carite was six-
teen, her wit was rclincd, her soul tender.
her form cncliaiiting, she thought like
Plato, and sung like Orpheus.
Sopliroiiinios on seeing her felt a con-
fusion and emotion totaly uiiknown.—-
Ho betit his eyes on the ground, and nev-
er so little to the purpose.’ Aristos, attri
Illltlllgiltls enibarsincnt to rcspect,cnde-av
ored to re-assure him. “Show us,”said lie,
”yoar fiiicst statue; I hear your pl‘.tlst'
from every nioutli.” “Alas!” replied
a Venus, with which I was till now satisfi-
oncc more.” \Vliile saying these words
he uncovered his statue, and threw a titti-
cd glance toward Carite She had pet'-
fcctly understood his meaning, and ap-
peared to be occupied with the Veiitis,
while her thoughts were really engaged
on the young sculptor.
Aristos, after having admired our he-
ro’.-:_woi'ks,departed, promising that he
would soon visit him again; Carite on
leaving him gracefully bade him adieu,
and Soplirotiiiiios now perceived, for the
first time, that his house appeared ex-
tremely solitary. '
That evening he could not read Ho-
mer as usual ; his whole mind was filled
with Carite. The next moruing,instead
of attending his labors, he traversed the
whole city in the hope of seeing her a
gain. He was successful, and from that
instant no more peace, no more study!
his statues remained unfinished, and A-
pollo, Diana and J upitcr were no longer
thought. of. His mind e3‘Cl‘ filled with
Carite, he now passed his whole time in
the circus and public walks in the hope
of beholding her ; and when unsuccess-
ful, he revolvcd a thousand plans, and
determined with the next dawn to put
them in execution.
At length his pt2rscverance,joined to
his celebrity, gained him an intreduction
to Aristos' house. He was allowed to
converse with Carite, and became still
more enamored ; butliow could he ever
dare to reveal it’! how could a sbulptor,
without fortune or friends, have any pre-
tensions to ‘the hand of the wealthiest
damsel of that city ’l Carite was too
rich for a poor youth to n ntice her beau-
ty. Sopliioiiimos knew all this, and
that if he declared himself he was lost;
but he must either comply with the irre-
sistiblc impulse, or expire with grief.-
He wrote to Carite. This letter, coucli-
ed in the tciidercst, the most submis-
sive, the most respectful tcrnis, was con-
fided to one ofAristos’ slaves, to whom
our hero gave all the little money he pos-
sessed, to ensure his secrecy; but the
treaclicrous confident, instead of giving
it to Carite, carried it to her father.
The indignant Aristos, after having
read it, for the first time, abused the au-
thority his situation gave him ; he accu-
sed Soplironimos in the council of crimes
which the youth had never dreamed of,
and caused him to be banished from the
city.
Meanwhile the unfortunate Thebaii
wifh trembling anxiety expected the
slave, and in stead of seeing him, receiv
ed an order to quit Miletus. He enter-
tained no doubt, but that Carite, offen-
ded at his presumption, had herself soli-
cited this vengcnce. “I have deserved
my fate,” exclaimed be, “yet I do not
repent,-—Oh, ye gods ! grant her" happi-
ness, and wreak over my head all the
woes which might trouble hcr repose.”—-
Such was the enthusiasm of his passion,
that without inurmuring at the injustice
ofhis sentence, his heart filled with grief,
he proceeded towards the harbor, mid
embarked in a vessel bound to Crete.
Aristos thought it advisable to conceal
from his daughter the real cause of soph-
ro'nimos’ banislimcnt. She,’ liowcver,
entertained doubts not far from the truth.
Carite had long since read in the young
Thebuii’s eyes all that this letter would
reveal; she shed tears to the remcm~
brance ofa' man whose love for her had
proved fatal ; but Carite was very young,
tos, on his side, felt confident in the mens-
ures he had adopted, enjoyed tranquility,
and only occupied himself in seeking a
suitable husband for his daughter, when
coast ofjlndia, purchased a small hous-._
as also some bloclis_of_inarble, and ‘prop!
ared to make sfatues for -his subsistancc.
Renown, which is -oftentimes so tardy
an attendant upon merit, was not so to
wards Sophronintos. His works were held
in great estimation, and soon-Iiis talents
were the general theme of conversition_.
The youthfulTliebaI,without permitting
himself . to» be intoxicated witb.tlie'p'aisc
so profusely bestowed upon him, only re-
doubled his efforts to remain worthy ofit.
Alone,in his dwelling,be dcd_icated the
whole of the day to labour, and in the
pvcmiig, asa relaxation‘,“a_n,iused Iiimself
in reading Homer; this instructive pleas-
ure elevated his soul, “and furished his
of the morrow. i Satisfied _ with the past,
an extraordinary event spread universal
miisternation throughout Miletus.‘
Some pirates from Lemnos surprised
11 ‘ll!-'Xt'tur of the city, and before the in-
l'"l31lanTS_ Could take up’ arms, these mis-
°"9“._"l5 lldlaléhtl Venus’ temple, and even
b‘"'“"d ““"'}’ Wltltttlicm the statue of
‘I'M lI”dd€59- Till“ statue was co'iisidcr-
ed asthe palladium or 1\,1',1,,t,,s, and the
prosperity of the Milcsians depended on
its possession. '
The people, much alarmed, immcdi-
atcly sent ambassadors to Delphos to
consult Apollo. The Oracle answered
that Milctus would only be in safety
when ti. new statue of Venus, i1's,lmud'L
some ‘as the goddess lierself, should have
replaced the one tlieyliad lost. ' ’ *
tlirougliout Greece, that the fairest maid
of '-Miletus, with four talents of gold,
should be the recompense of the sculptor,
who would fulfil the 0r_zicle’s condition.
Several celebrated artists arrived with
their works, which were exposed in the
public square ; the magistrates and the
people were well satisfied with many of
tlieni ; but as soon as the statue was pla-
ccd on the alter, a supernatural power
‘threw it down. The Milesiaiis now be-
gun to regret Soplironimos,and with tears
eiitrcatcd that he might be sought.
Aristos himself now thought it neces-
sary to gain some iiiI'orination of the
ship in wliiclt the unhappy banislied
youth had embarked. All his ciidcav-
ors were fruitless, and at lcngtli he was
-ohligcdto send to Crete, where the mes-
senger learned that the ship with all its
crew had perished near the island of
Naxos. .
The Milesiuns, in despair, accused
their magistrate of want of vigilance, to
which cause they atrihuted the invasion
of the pirates, and the loss of Sophroiii-
mos, wlioin they discovered he had un-
justly banished. The people soon pro-
ceeded from murinering to revolt ; they
surrounded his dwelling, and entered it
by force ; Carite’s tears, ciitrcaties, and_
lamentations were ofiio avail, they could
iiotsave her father; Aristos was seized,
loaded with irotis, and dragged to a dun-
geon, where the people declared he
should remain until the statue of Venus
was replaced.
Carite, inn state bordering on distrac-
tion, wished to go to_Atliens, Corinth, or
Thebes, to seek for an artist who would
restore her father to freedom. She first
took every means in her power to soften
his confinement, and left a confidential
slave with him to adriiinisterto his wants.
Somewhat tranquilized by these proceed-
ings, she caused a ship to be fitted out for
her, loaded it with treasures, and depar-
ted on her searclt.
The zhree first days of her navigation
were very favorable; and it seemed as
if the winds had taken her under their
protection : but suddenly a tremenduous
storm arose, and the ship was violently
assailed with contrary blasts, which for-
ced the pilot to seek for refuge in an un-
known creek. Tlwy had not long rc-
maiucd stationary, when the storm ceas-
ed, the sun returned, and Carite invited
by the beauty of the weather, went on
shore to refresh herself for a few hours,
from the fatigue she had experienced at
sea. On landing, she seated herself on
the turf, and soon a gentle slumber made
her insensible to her afllictions. She,
however, soon awoke, and perceiving
that her ilavcs were still fast locked in
the arms of Morpheus, determined not
to disturb them. but ventured to -walk a-
lone on the sea-shore, and having a wish
of exploring a part of this uninhabited
island, proceeded onwards beyond the
rocks that defended it from the intrusion
of the waves.
Soon a delightful valley metlier view,
crossed by two small iivulets, and cover-
ed with fruit trees; struck her admira-
tion,.Carite stopped awile to gaze onthe
beauty of the prospect. Nature was then
clothed in the lovely garb of spring; all
the trees were in bloom ; their leaves
were still dripping from the past storm,
and the sun while warming them with its
rays, seemed to cover their branches with
drops of crystal. The butterflies rejoi-
cing at the returuiiig beauty of the weath-
er,_began to wander from flower to flow-
er, aiid legions of bees buzzed about,
not yet daring to cull honey, for fear of
wetting their transparent wings. The
nightingale and the linnet, "recovered
from their terror, made the air re-echo
with their notes, while their tender mates
fluttered over the meadows in search of a
blade of dried grass to form their" new
built nest.
Carite after having some moments ga-
zed" on this spectacle, descended into
the valley, and crossing the meadow, de-
scricd a small lint, , surrounded with
trees, the entrance of which was hidden
from the view by- an arbor: she 31)..
preached, and listened to the murinering
of a stream which meandcrcd at her feet;
soon the notes ofa lyre mingled with this
pleasing, sound ; she lent an attentive
ear to a voice that sang the following
words to a plaintive air :— '
“Sad is the memory of pleosures past ;
It stealsupon the soul as on the car,
The moninful voice ef Winter's stormy blast,
When sleep In dust the beauties ofthe year.
Gay were the dreams of liope,tliat chccrednw liile
My glowing fancy, my weak heart,
Fleet is the brightest lay of cupid’s smile,
But everlasting is his smart.”_ . ‘
The voice had not concluded, when
Carite recognized through the trees the
figure of Sopliroiiinios, and instantly
fainted. He had also perceived her, he
flew and raised her in his arms, gazed
on her, and could not credit his happi-
ncss ; he bore her to the rivulet,
and ii few drops of water sprinkled on
her lovelyfnce soon restored her senses.
“Are you Carite,” exclaimed lie, “or a
diviu_ity»that has assumed her form 'l’’-—
“I anithe daughter of .-_\iris_t_’os,” she mild-
I)’ wlllled 3“llly father is in danger; you;
alone can_ save _li'i‘m.’Z . “Oh,l_spca_k,,”:
joy, “say WIltlt_I am to do, I will‘ gladly
expose my life, forhis and your service.”.
Carite then related to him the nian-
ncr in which he-might be of essential
service to her country, and rescue‘ her
father from impending danger. ,As she
proceeded in her request," delight shone
in the eyes of our hero. “Cease tofcur,”
Suigl he with dignity,“I have in that but
alstatuc, whichl think‘ will’ not. fa'l- to
The Millesiaiis instaiitly ‘pi.i,1ig1,c(}
mllsfx‘ your goddess,’ as well as your
rejoined-Soplironimos in a transport of
countrymen ; it belongs to you, fair Ca- . 5”
rite, but I have a request to make, wli.
is, that you will not look at it, utitilit is
placed in the temple at Blllcllls.”
Aristos’ daughter readily» consented;
Sophronimos related to her how he had
alone escaped from the wteck, and that
the box contaiiitng his tools had. been
cast ashore by the waves. He had fouijid
in the island, water, fruit and niarhlc.-—
Alone in the hu‘. which he had liimselfc-y
rcctcd, he had devoted his time to form-
ing the masterpiece which was to deliv-
er Aristos. “Come,” added he, “and
behold the asylum where I have‘ long
dwelt with no other coinpaiiion than your
image, which I constantly had before my
eyes, and ever clierislied in my heart.”
Carite followed Sophronimos into his
hut ; every where she saw her name
written; every where her initials were
entwined with those of her ltivcr. “For-
give me,” said he; “ifalone in this place,
I (hired to trace on the walls of my
dwelling the sentiments of my soul ;
here I entertained no fear of being bati-
islied.” These words made the tctidcr
Carite’s eyes fill with tears ; she looked
at Soplironiinos. and almost pressed the
hand which held her. “Ah l” ‘said she,
“It was not 1”-——slie did not conclude,
but contemplated a statue which, cover-
ed with a vail, stood on :1 sort of altar;
“let us hasten,” continued she, “tojoin
my slaves, that they may bear _to the ship
that masterpiece which I am onl_y.to ad-
mire at Milctus ; you will return with
me; and Whatever may be the event, we
will no more part.”
The overjoyed Sophroninios dared to
raise Caritc’s hand to his lips, and
did not meet with a repulse. They
were procoiling towards the sea-
sliorc when they were met by the slaves
and sailors, who, alarmed at the absence
of their mistress, had been seeking Iicr
forsomc time.
Carite ordered them to carry, careful-
ly, the vniled statue on board their ship ;
she was obeyed ; and Soplironiinos bade
adieu to his liut,but not withott first rc-
turning thanks to the Sylvan deities who
had protected him while in that asylum.
He placed all his, tools on the altar
where the statue had stood, and conse-
crated them to Pan; tlicu respectfully
kissing the thresl hold of the door, “I
shall return hither,” he exclaimed, “to
expire, if I am not permitted to live for
Carite.” After this farewell, they enter»
cd the ship and steered towards Milctus.
Happily for Carite, who wished So-
plironimos to have restored her father to
liberty, before she acknowledged her
afl'ection,their voyge was not tedious; or
if it had proved longer, pcrliaps,tlie sculp-
tur might have been reccompensed by
her avowal, before he, by his actions, de-
served it.' By the prudence of Carite, and
the respect of Sophronimos, aided by
prosperous gales, they arrived at Miletus,
witliout having broaced the subject.
joy throughout the city. The people, by
whom he was beloved, assembled, dcci
ded thatithe statue liadno need of beitig ex-
amincd previous to its cxpcricnceiug the
trial of the altar of Venus. All their.hab-
itants repaired to the temple, and as soon
as it was crowded, Carite with faltering
steps followed her lover, who advanced,
bearing in his arms the statue covered
with a veil. On his arrval, he placed it
on the alter, with a modest cor.-tideutial
air. The statue ri-mained statioary. He
uncovered it, and iinmediatly all the spec-
tators recognised the featurcs of Carite
It was she, it was his beloved maiden,
whom the sculptor hadcliosen for the nio-
del of his Venus I The portrait ofCarite was
so indelibly eiigraven in his heart, that far
frotn her, in his deesert island, he had
been able to dispense with the original;
and in making the resemblance, hevhad
fulfiled the condition of the the Oracle,
who exacted a statue as handsome asVe-
nus.
The goddess, satisfied, and void of jeal-
ousy, accepted the offering, and manifes-
ted her approbation by tlic mouth of her
high priest, and thus the oracle was ac-
complished. The people uttering ac-
clainations of joy, surrounded Soproni-
mos, and entreated him to choose his rc-
compense. "Restore Aristos to liberty,”
replied he, “mid I shall consider myself
uinply-repaid.”/ All immediately fled to
the prison of the old man; but Carite
was desirous ofbcing tlic first to break
her father's chains. She embraced him,
told him of her happiness, and blushing,
beat her eyes on thcground, whenever
pronouncing the name of Soporonimos.
Aristos’ breast filled with gratitude, asked
tor his liberator, threw himself into his
arms, and while tears fell on his furrow-
e d heck, exclaimed, “My friend, [have
been very guilty towards you, but Carite
shall repair my crime.” After having
said. these words, he joined the lovers’
hands amidst universal aicclainatioiis of
joy ; all _appe'ai'cd_ to sliafire their_' happi-
ness, whilc—our.hcro and heroine return-
