Stran 228 - Now let not nature's hand Keep the wild flood confin'd ! Let order die, And let the world no longer be a ftage To feed contention in a ling'ring aft: But let one fpirit of the firft-born Cain Reign in all bofoms, that each heart being fet On bloody courfes, the rude fcene may end, And darknefs be the burier of the dead

Stran 199 - Unhappy glories! for his fate was near, Due to ftern 'Pallas, and Pelides fpear: Yet Jove deferr'd the death he was to pay, And gave what fate allow'd, the honours of a day!. Now all on fire for fame, his breaft, his eyes Burn at each foe, and fingle ev'ry prize
Stran 197 - But enter'd in the Grecian ranks, he turns 710 His manly breaft, and with new fury burns.

Stran 144 - Whom Hermes lov'd, and taught the arts of gain) Full in his eye the weapon chanc'd to fall, And from the fibres fcoop'd the rooted ball, Drove thro' the neck, and hurl'd him to the plain: He lifts his miferable arms in vain ! 580 Swift his broad falchion fierce Peneleus fpread, And from the fpouting fhoulders
Stran 281 - rear; 820 What honours mortals after death receive, Thofe unavailing honours we may give! Apollo bows, and from mount Ida's height, Swift to the field precipitates his flight; Thence from the war the breathlefs hero bore, 825 Veil'd in a cloud, to filver
Stran 67 - O thou, great Father! Lord of earth and fkies, Above the thought of man, fupremely wife ! 790 If from thy hand the fates of mortals flow, From whence this favour to an impious foe, A godlefs crew, abandon'd and unjuft, Still breathing rapine, violence, and luft
