Сторінка 225 - What, me, my lord ?' quoth he. ' Yea, thee, traitor,' quoth the protector.

Then...
Сторінка 133 - Think not, the good, The gentle deeds of mercy thou hast done Shall die forgotten all; the poor, the pris'ner, The fatherless, the friendless, and the widow, Who daily own the bounty of thy hand, Shall cry to heav'n, and pull a blessing on thee...
Сторінка 136 - To sooth the sorrows of the midnight mourner, Comfort comes with them ; like the golden sun Dispels the sullen shades with her sweet influence, And cheers the melancholy house of care.
Сторінка 199 - Inclining fondly to me she has sworn, She lov'd me more than all the world beside. Alic. Ha ! say'st thou ! — let me look upon thee well — «° 'T is true — I know thee now — A mischief on \ thee! — Thou art that fatal fair, that cursed she, That set my brain a madding.

Сторінка 134 - If, strongly charm'd, she leave the thorny way, And in the softer paths of pleasure stray, Ruin ensues, reproach and endless shame, And one false step entirely damns her fame: In vain with tears the loss she may deplore, In vain look back on what she was before; She sets, like stars that fall, to rise no more.
Сторінка 208 - Thou murd'rous sorrow! Wo't thou still drink her blood, pursue her still? Must she then die? Oh, my poor penitent, Speak peace to thy sad heart.— She hears me not; Grief masters ev'ry sense.
Сторінка 225 - I will not to dinner till I see thy head off.' It boded him not to ask why, but heavily he took a priest at adventure, and made a short shrift, for a longer would not be suffered, the Protector made so much haste to dinner; which he might not go to till this were done for saving of his oath.
