Called “The Thunderer” from an article contributed by Captain E. Sterling, beginning: “We thundered forth the other day an article on the subject of social and political reform;” and “The Turnabout,” because its politics jump with the times, and are not fossilized whig or tory. =Tim´ias=, King Arthur’s squire. He went after the “wicked foster,” from whom Florimel fled, and the “foster,” with his two brothers, falling on him, were all slain. Timias, overcome by fatigue, now fell from his horse in a swoon, and Belphœbê, the huntress, happening to see him fall, ran to his succor, applied an ointment to his wounds, and bound them with her scarf. The squire, opening his eyes, exclaimed, “Angel or goddess; do I call thee right?” “Neither,” replied the maid, “but only a wood-nymph.” Then was he set upon his horse and taken to Belphœbê’s pavilion, where he soon “recovered from his wounds, but lost his heart” (bk. iii. 6). In bk. iv. 7 Belphœbê subsequently found Timias in dalliance with Amoret, and said to him, “Is this thy faith?” She said no more, “but turned her face and fled.” This is an allusion to Sir Walter Raleigh’s amour with Elizabeth Throgmorton (_Amoret_), one of the queen’s maids of honor, which drew upon Sir Walter (_Timias_) the passionate displeasure of his royal mistress, Queen Elizabeth, (_Belphœbê_).--Spenser, _Faëry Queen_, iii. (1590). =Timms= (_Corporal_), a non-commissioned officer in Waverley’s regiment.--Sir W. Scott, _Waverley_ (time, George II.). =Timo´leon=, the Corinthian. He hated tyranny, and slew his own brother, whom he dearly loved, because he tried to make himself absolute in Corinth. “Timophănês he loved, but freedom more.” The fair Corinthian boast Timoleon, happy temper, mild and firm, Who wept the brother while the tyrant bled.
