Text Appearing Before Image:
Adam Bede. Drawn by Merrill. and that showing an Eastern fanatic on the battlefield: One of that saintly, murderous brood, To carnage and the Koran given,Who think through unbelievers blood Lies their directest path to heaven, —One who will pause and kneel unshod In the warm blood his hand hath pourd,To mutter oer some text of God Engraven on his reeking sword ;Nay, who can coolly note the line,The letter of those words divine,To which his blade, with searching art,Had sunk into its victims heart! 136 AMERICAN ART
Text Appearing After Image:
A Queer Puppy. Drawn by Merrill. The picture on this page (from The Red Mountain of Alaska ) shows a direction of Merrillstalent in which he is very strong, and that is, in drawing a boy. Boys he seems to thoroughly knowand appreciate, and he must have studied them somewhat as did Charles Dudley Warner, whoseBeing a Boy is a complete guide to the American boy. That is proven by these quotationsalone: There is a great comfort to a boy in the amount of work he can get rid of doing. Every boy who is good for anything is a natural savage. You want to catch your boy young,and study him before he has either virtues or vices in order to understand the primitive man.Merrills boy looks a hearty fellow, who can eat without undue urging. To parody Wordsworth,who knew something about boys himself, he is — A creature not too bright or goodTo eat considable daily food. AMERICAN ART 137 Merrill has drawn in a spirited and faithful manner many scenes in our great war, and ofthese we select Tirrels
