Pàgina 344 - In all my wanderings round this world of care, In all my griefs — and God has given my share — I still had hopes my latest hours to crown, Amidst these humble bowers to lay me down...
Pàgina 318 - His acquaintance with books was great ; and what he did not immediately know, he could at least tell where to find.
