Stran 163 - Since once I sat upon a promontory, And heard a mermaid on a dolphin's back Uttering such dulcet and harmonious breath. That the rude sea grew civil at her song, And certain stars shot madly from their spheres, To hear the sea-maid's music.
Stran 76 - EVEN such is time, that takes in trust Our youth, our joys, our all we have, And pays us but with earth and dust; Who, in the dark and silent grave, When we have wandered all our ways, Shuts up the story of our days; But from this earth, this grave, this dust, My God shall raise me up, I trust!
Stran 127 - Those joyous hours are past away ; And many a heart, that then was gay, Within the tomb now darkly dwells, And hears no more those evening bells. And so 'twill be when I am gone ; That tuneful peal will still ring on, While other bards shall walk these dells, And...
Stran 143 - Anne, by the Grace of God, of Great Britain, France, and Ireland, Queen, Defender of the faith, &c.
Stran 22 - We need not bid, for cloistered cell, Our neighbour and our work farewell, Nor strive to wind ourselves too high For sinful man beneath the sky : The trivial round, the common task, Would furnish all we ought to ask ; Room to deny ourselves ; a road To bring us, daily, nearer God.

Hunt fell — or threw himself — among the constables, and was driven or dragged, as fast as possible, down the avenue which communicated with the magistrates' house; his associates were hurried after him in a similar...
Stran 47 - Huge, mighty, massive, hard, and strong, Were the choice stones they lifted then; The vision of their hope was long, They knew their God, those faithful men. They pitched no tent for change or death. No home to last man's shadowy day; There! there! the everlasting breath Would breathe whole centuries away.
Stran 63 - A deep dale beneath, A dungeon therein, With deep ditches and dark And dreadful of sight. A fair field full of folk Found I there between, Of all manner of men, The mean and the rich, Working and wandering, As the world asketh. Some...
Stran 74 - ... twelve of the most comely and decentlooking youths, who were placed in two rows of six each, with each a branch of laurel held presented in his hand, as a token of amity and peace ; then followed the men of several districts in fives ; then the band of music, an excellent one ; then the colours : a blue one of silk, with inscriptions in golden letters, "Unity and Strength," "Liberty and Fraternity"; a green one of silk, with golden letters, "Parliaments Annual...
