第 163 頁 - Still to be neat, still to be drest, As you were going to a feast ; Still to be powdered, still perfumed: Lady, it is to be presumed, Though art's hid causes are not found, All is not sweet, all is not sound. Give me a look, give me a face; That makes simplicity a grace ; Robes loosely flowing, hair as free : Such sweet neglect more taketh me, Than all the adulteries of art ; They strike mine eyes, but not my heart.
第 130 頁 - Tis good to be merry and wise, 'Tis good to be honest and true ; 'Tis good to be off with the old love, Before you be on with the new.
第 313 頁 - Refined himself to soul, to curb the sense, And made almost a sin of abstinence : Yet had his aspect nothing of severe, But such a face as promised him sincere. Nothing reserved or sullen was to see ; But sweet regards, and pleasing sanctity : Mild was his accent, and his action free.
第 314 頁 - Wide was his parish; not contracted close In streets, but here and there a straggling house; Yet still he was at hand, without request, To serve the sick; to succour the distress'd: Tempting, on foot, alone, without affright, The dangers of a dark tempestuous night.

For, letting down the golden chain from high, He drew his audience upward to the sky ; And oft, with holy hymns, he charm'd their ears, (A music more melodious than the spheres,) For David left him, when he went to rest, His lyre ; and after him he sung the best.
第 3 頁 - Mrs. Stanhope did not find Belinda such a docile pupil as her other nieces, for she had been educated chiefly in the country; she had early been inspired with a taste for domestic pleasures ; she was fond of reading, and disposed to conduct herself with prudence and integrity.
第 301 頁 - I hear a voice, you cannot hear, Which says, I must not stay; I see a hand, you cannot see, Which beckons me away.
第 225 頁 - ... she, bursting into a horse laugh. Without sharing in any degree that confusion which Belinda felt for her, she strode out of the room, saying, " Miss Portman, you understand these things better than I do ; come and set me to rights." When she was in Belinda's room, she threw herself into an arm-chair, and laughed immoderately. " How I have trimmed Percival this morning !" said she. " I am glad you think so," said Belinda ; "for I really was afraid he had been too severe upon you.
第 313 頁 - But never sued, or cursed with bell and book: With patience bearing wrong, but offering none, Since every man is free to lose his own.
