Pàgina 187 - Or seeks the den where snow-tracks mark the way And drags the struggling savage into day. At night returning, every labour sped, He sits him down the monarch of a shed; Smiles by his cheerful fire, and round surveys His children's looks that brighten at the blaze; While his lov'd partner, boastful of her hoard, Displays her cleanly platter on the board ; And haply, too, some pilgrim, thither led, With many a tale repays the nightly bed.
Pàgina 455 - I'll seek the solitude he sought, And stretch me where he lay. And there, forlorn, despairing, hid, I'll lay me down and die: 'Twas so for me that Edwin did, And so for him will I.

Though poor the peasant's hut, his feasts though small, He sees his little lot, the lot of all; Sees no contiguous palace rear its head, To shame the meanness of his humble shed; No costly lord, the sumptuous banquet deal, To make him loathe his vegetable meal ; But calm, and bred in ignorance and toil Each wish contracting, fits him to the soil.
Pàgina 455 - Till quite dejected with my scorn, He left me to my pride ; And sought a solitude forlorn. In secret where he died.
Pàgina 137 - ANIMULA ! vagula, blandula, Hospes, comesque, corporis, Quae nunc abibis in- loca — Pallidula, rigida, nudula, Nee, ut soles, dabis jocos...
Pàgina 189 - And though the rocky-crested summits frown, These rocks, by custom, turn to beds of down. From art more various are the blessings sent, Wealth, commerce, honour, liberty, content.
