Сторінка 29 - In times severe, when many a sturdy swain Felt it his pride, his comfort, to complain ; Isaac their wants would soothe, his own would hide And feel in that his comfort and his pride. At length he found, when seventy years were run, His strength departed, and his labour done ; When he, save honest fame, retain'd no more, But lost his wife, and saw his children poor : Twas then, a spark of — say not discontent — Struck on his mind, and thus he gave it vent : — " Kind are your laws, ('tis not...

Сторінка 28 - twas not their vulgar pride, Who, in their base contempt, the great deride ; Nor pride in learning, though my clerk agreed, If fate should call him, Ashford might succeed ; Nor pride in rustic skill, although we knew None his superior, and his equals few : But if that spirit in his soul had place, It was the jealous pride that shuns disgrace...
Сторінка 193 - Now within the gate rejoice, Safe, and owned, and bought, and blest. Safe, from all the lures of vice ; . Owned, by joys the contrite know ; Bought, by love, and life the price ; Blest, the mighty debt to owe.
