Сторінка 110 - Who, then, no more by golden prospects led, Of the poor Indian begg'da leafy bed. Cold on Canadian hills, or Minden's plain, Perhaps that parent mourn'd her soldier slain : Bent o'er her babe, her eye...
Сторінка 116 - It is probable that fome benefit might be produced by planting a fmall number of male Hops in each Garden (for the Hop is of that order of vegetables which bear the male and female flowers on different plants.)

Сторінка 97 - To minifter; but, to th' exterior-croud Of fleek church-wardens and church-tending dames. Incomprehennbly refin'd and deep ; Expofing fchifms and herefies long time Refuted — yet frefh broach'd, — unwary flocks To fever from their fhepherd ; flocks, too fond Of novel food, — not heeding whence deriv'd ; Whether from Salem's Mount, with deathlefs flow'rs And ever-fpringing pafturage adorn'd; Or whether from the rank and treach'rous fens 280 Whence many an ignis fatuus moots up To lead unftable...
