Pàgina 35 - IF THAT HIGH WORLD. IP that high world, which lies beyond Our own, surviving Love endears ; If there the cherish'd heart be fond, The eye the same, except in tears...
Pàgina 202 - Mais elle e'tait du monde, ou les plus belles choses Ont le pire destin ; Et, rose, elle a vecu ce que vivent les roses, L'espace d'un matin.

Pàgina 146 - You will go to the Breakfast, of course ?" said D'Arcy, one morning, in Mrs. Harcourt's drawingroom. " Certainly, as I am invited. Shall you go ? — but it is no use asking, as it is not to be for a week.
