第 57 頁 - Lay a garland on my hearse, Of the dismal yew; Maidens, willow branches bear; Say I died true: My love was false, but I was firm From my hour of birth. Upon my buried body lie Lightly, gentle earth!
第 xiii 頁 - That humour interposed too often makes; All this still legible in memory's page, And still to be so to my latest age, Adds joy to duty, makes me glad to pay Such honours to thee as my numbers may; Perhaps a frail memorial, but sincere, Not scorned in heaven, though little noticed here.
第 167 頁 - Dick then made for the lower part of the heath, and skirted a part that leads towards North End, passing the furze-crowned summit, which is now crested by a clump of lofty pines. It was here that the chase first assumed a character of interest. Being open ground, the pursued and pursuers were in full view of each other ; and as Dick rode swiftly across the heath, with the shouting trio hard at his heels, the scene had a very animated appearance.

Scudding rapidly past Highgate, like a swift-sailing schooner with three lumbering Indiamen in her wake, Dick now took the lead along a narrow lane that...
第 xiv 頁 - ... and trifling jollities, and do what lies in you to keep me always merry. Be frolic now, my lads, cheer up your hearts, and joyfully read the rest, with all the ease of your body and profit of your reins.
