第 182 頁 - Then gently scan your brother man, Still gentler sister woman ; Though they may gang a kennin wrang, To step aside is human : One point must still be greatly dark, The moving why they do it ; And just as lamely can ye mark How far, perhaps, they rue it.
第 6 頁 - Who hath not proved how feebly words essay To fix one spark of Beauty's heavenly ray? Who doth not feel, until his failing sight Faints into dimness with its own delight, His changing cheek, his sinking heart confess The might, the majesty of Loveliness...
第 186 頁 - Big, bright, and fast, unknown to her they fell ; But still her lips refused to send — " Farewell ! " For in that word, that fatal word, howe'er We promise, hope, believe, there breathes despair.

第 76 頁 - And what hostilities, without a foe! Nor are foes wanting to the best on earth. But endless is the list of human ills, And sighs might sooner fail, than cause to sigh.
第 40 頁 - Enjoys the sad prerogative above him, To think, and to be wretched ! What is life To him, that's born to die ! Or, what the wisdom, whose perfection ends In knowing, we know nothing? Mere contradiction all ! A tragic farce, Tedious, though short, elab'rate without art, Ridiculously sad Enter RANDAL.
第 180 頁 - Bell in the open air; and the comment made upon it by his face and voice was very different from that of some later critics ! Whatever might be thought of the poem, " his face was as a book Where men might read strange matters," and he announced the fate of his hero in prophetic tones.
