第 422 頁 - And now I'm in the world alone, Upon the wide, wide sea ; But why should I for others groan, When none will sigh for me? Perchance my dog will whine in vain, Till fed by stranger hands ; But long ere I come back again He'd tear me where he stands. With thee, my bark, I'll swiftly go Athwart the foaming brine ! Nor care what land thou bear'st me to, So not again to mine. Welcome, welcome, ye dark blue waves ! And when you fail my sight, Welcome, ye deserts, and ye caves ! My native Land— Good Night...
第 305 頁 - In our little journey up to the Grande Chartreuse, I do not remember to have gone ten paces without an exclamation, that there was no restraining. Not a precipice, not a torrent, not a cliff, but is pregnant with religion and poetry.
第 306 頁 - The great gate fronting to the north was about four feet high, and almost two feet wide, through which I could easily creep. On each side of the gate was a small window not above six inches from the ground: into that on the left side, the King's...
第 333 頁 - tis no mean art To know one from the other. " Thus, Love will fold his arms, and moan, And sigh, and weep, like Sorrow ; And Sorrow has caught Love's soft tone, And mixed his arrows with his own, And learned his smile to borrow.
第 274 頁 - I think a very great affront is offered to us, which we ought, for the dignity of the court, to resent. But that we may do nothing too suddenly, but take consideration at full leisure, and maturely, let us now rise, and to-morrow morning give order as becomes us. And do you...

But the doubt was, how they should signify their resentment, so as to be effectually remedial. At length they agreed, for one day, to make no motions at all; and opportunity would fall for shewing the reason how the court came to have no business.
第 134 頁 - ... her appearance every eye was directed towards her with an expression of the deepest interest. Splendidly adorned, as is customary on these occasions, and attended by a female friend of high rank, she slowly advanced to the seat assigned her near the altar. Her fine form rose above the middle stature, a gentle bend marked her contour, but it seemed as the yielding of a fading flower; her deep blue eyes, which were occasionally in pious awe raised to Heaven, and her long dark eye-lashes, gave life...
第 314 頁 - Whatever God did Say, Is all thy plain and smooth uninterrupted way ! Nay, ev'n beyond his works thy voyages are known, Thou 'hast thousand worlds too of thine own. Thou speak'st, great Queen ! in the same style as He; And a new world leaps forth when thou say'st,
第 274 頁 - ... in such a manner as the greatness of their offence demanded ; and then they should hear what the court would say to them. Accordingly they did ; and the chief first, and, then, the rest, in order, gave them a formal chiding with acrimony enough ; all which, with dejected countenances, they were bound to hear. When this discipline was over, the chief pointed to one to move ; which he did (as they said) more like one crying than speaking : and so ended the comedy, as it was acted in Westminster-hall,...
第 134 頁 - This solemn music continued long, and still fell mournfully on the ear ; and yet seraphic as in softened tones, and as it were receding in the distance, it gently sank into silence.
