第 194 頁 - I was not ever thus, nor prayed that Thou Shouldst lead me, on. I loved to choose and see my path ; but now Lead Thou me on ! I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears, Pride ruled my will : remember not past years.
第 24 頁 - And all the silvery gossamers That twinkle into green and gold: Calm and still light on yon great plain That sweeps with all its autumn bowers, And crowded farms and lessening towers, To mingle with the bounding main: Calm and deep peace in this wide air, These leaves that redden to the fall; And in my heart, if calm at all, If any calm, a calm despair: Calm on the seas, and silver sleep, And waves that sway themselves in rest, And dead calm in that noble breast Which heaves but with the heaving...
第 122 頁 - My conscience hath a thousand several tongues, And every tongue brings in a several tale, And every tale condemns me for a villain.

第 143 頁 - My sky, that shone so sunny bright, With foggy gloom is clouded o'er : My gay green leaves are yellow-black, Upon the dank autumnal floor ; For love, departed once, comes back No more again, no more. A roofless ruin lies my home, For winds to blow and rains to pour ; One frosty night befell, and lo !
