Pàgina 414 - Weave the warp and weave the woof, The winding-sheet of Edward's race : Give ample room and verge enough The characters of hell to trace.
Pàgina 277 - Tho' at times her spirit sank: Shaped her heart with woman's meekness To all duties of her rank : And a gentle consort made he, And her gentle mind was such That she grew a noble lady, And the people loved her much. But a trouble weigh'd upon her, And perplex'd her, night and morn, With the burthen of an honour Unto which she was not born.
Pàgina 428 - On that best portion of a good man's life, — His little, nameless, unremembered acts Of kindness and of love.
Pàgina 82 - I know each lane, and every alley green, Dingle, or bushy dell, of this wild wood, And every bosky bourn from side to side...
Pàgina 428 - These beauteous forms, Through a long absence, have not been to me As is a landscape to a blind man's eye : But oft, in lonely rooms, and 'mid the din Of towns and cities, I have owed to them In hours of weariness, sensations sweet, Felt in the blood, and felt along the heart...
Pàgina 38 - Wherewith, alas! reviveth in my breast The sweet accord, such sleeps as yet delight; The pleasant dreams, the quiet bed of rest; The secret thoughts, imparted with such trust, The wanton talk, the divers change of play; The friendship sworn, each promise kept so just, Wherewith we past the winter night away.
Pàgina 397 - Inspired repulsed battalions to engage, And taught the doubtful battle where to rage. So when an angel by divine command With rising tempests shakes a guilty land, Such as of late o'er pale Britannia past, Calm and serene he drives the furious blast ; And, pleased the Almighty's orders to perform, Rides in the whirlwind, and directs the storm.
Pàgina 240 - KING'S COLLEGE CHAPEL, CAMBRIDGE. TAX not the royal saint with vain expense, With ill-matched aims the architect who planned, Albeit labouring for a scanty band Of white-robed scholars only, this immense And glorious work of fine intelligence ! Give all thou canst ; high Heaven rejects the lore Of nicely calculated less or more.
Pàgina 386 - Humpty together again. ide a cockhorse to Banbury Cross, To see a fine lady upon a white horse; With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes, She shall have music wherever she goes.
Pàgina 94 - The loss of Colonel Hampden goeth near the heart of every man that loves the good of his king and country, and makes some conceive little content to be at the army now that he is gone. The memory of this deceased colonel is such, that in no age to come but it will more and more be had in honour and esteem ;—a man so religious, and of that prudence, judgment, temper, valour, and integrity, that he hath left few his like behind him.
