Strana 292 - I slept, and dreamed that life was beauty; I woke, and found that life was duty. Was thy dream then a shadowy lie? Toil on, sad heart, courageously, And thou shalt find thy dream to be A noonday light and truth to thee...
Strana 69 - He spake of love, such love as Spirits feel In worlds whose course is equable and pure ; No fears to beat away — no strife to heal — The past unsighed for, and the future sure...

Strana 167 - ... every increase of capital gives or is capable of giving additional employment to industry...
Strana 183 - They glide, like phantoms, into the wide hall ! Like phantoms to the iron porch they glide, Where lay the Porter, in uneasy sprawl, With a huge empty...
