Сторінка 123 - SONG. Go, lovely rose! Tell her, that wastes her time and me, That now she knows, When I resemble her to thee, How sweet, and fair, she seems to be. Tell her that's young, And shuns to have her graces spy'd, That hadst thou sprung In desarts, where no men abide, Thou must have
Сторінка 322 - Fair laughs the Morn, and soft the Zephyr blows, While proudly riding o'er the azure realm, In gallant trim the gilded vessel goes; Youth on the prow, and Pleasure at the helm ; Regardless of the sweeping Whirlwind's sway, That, hush'd in grim repose, expects his evening prey.
Сторінка 496 - seek ! Follow where all is fled !—Rome's azure sky, Flowers, ruins, statues, music, words are weak The glory they transfuse with fitting truth to speak. Why linger, why turn back, why shrink, my Heart I Thy hopes are gone before : from all things here They have departed ; thou shouldst now depart ! A light is

Сторінка 61 - From Paul's I went to Eton sent, To learn straightways the Latin phrase; Where fifty three stripes given to me At once I had, For fault but small, or none at all, It came to pass thus beat I was. See, Udall, see the mercy of thee To me poor lad.

I could not have slept this night in my bed, nor reposed my head on my pillow, without giving this vent to my eternal abhorrence of such preposterous and enormous principles.

Сторінка 107 - your praise When Philomel her voice shall raise ' " So when my mistress shall be seen In form and beauty of her mind, By virtue first, then choice, a queen, Tell me if she were not designed The eclipse and glory of her kind
