Сторінка 15 - Free and unquestion'd through the wilds of love; While woman,— sense and nature's easy fool. If poor, weak, woman swerve from virtue's rule; 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 49 - Oh ! my Soul ! For are not thy Transgressions great and numberless? Do they not cover thee, like rising Floods, And press thee like a Weight of Waters down?

Сторінка 13 - And you, the brightest of the stars above, Ye saints that once were women here below, Be witness of the truth, the holy friendship, Which here to this my other self I vow.

Сторінка 51 - Mercy ! I know it not — for I am miserable. I'll give thee Misery, for here She dwells ; This is her House, where the Sun never dawns, The Bird of Night sits screaming o'er the Roof, Grim Spectres sweep along the horrid Gloom, And nought is heard but Waitings and Lamentings.
Сторінка 49 - My guard, too, that observed me still so close, Tire in the task of their inhuman office, And loiter far behind. Alas ! I faint, My spirits fail at once — This is the door Of my Alicia Blessed opportunity ! I'll steal a little succour from her goodness, Now while no eye observes me. [She knocks at the Door. Enter a SERVANT.
Сторінка 30 - Has mov'd the people much about the lawfulness Of Edward's issue ? By right grave authority Of learning and religion, plainly proving, A bastard scion never should be grafted Upon a royal stock ; from thence, at full Discoursing on my brother's former contract To Lady Elizabeth Lucy, long before • SCENE I.] JANE SHORE.
Сторінка 40 - You heard, the duke's commands to me were absolute. Therefore, my lord, address you to your shrift, With all good speed you may. Summon your courage, And be yourself; for you must die this instant.
Сторінка 47 - Gaze unconcern'd upon the ruin round thee ; As if thou hadst resolv'd to brave thy fate, And triumph in the midst of desolation. " Ha ! see, it swells ; the liquid crystal rises, " It starts, in spite of thee, but I will catch it ; " Nor let the earth be wet with dew so rich.
