Strana 313 - Sweet echo, sweetest nymph, that liv'st unseen Within thy airy shell By slow Meander's margent green, And in the violet-embroidered vale Where the love-lorn nightingale Nightly to thee her sad song mourneth well: Canst thou not tell me of a gentle pair That likest thy Narcissus are? O, if thou have Hid them in some flowery cave, Tell me but where, Sweet Queen of Parley, Daughter of the Sphere! So may'st thou be translated to the skies, And give resounding grace to all Heaven's harmonies!
Strana 313 - He, that has light within his own clear breast, May sit in the centre, and enjoy bright day: But he, that hides a dark soul and foul thoughts, Benighted walks under the mid-day sun; Himself is his own dungeon.
Strana 313 - So may'st thou be translated to the skies, And give resounding grace to all Heaven's harmonies!
Strana 160 - THE blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, which was shed for thee, preserve thy body and soul unto everlasting life!

In his adversity I ever prayed, that God would give him strength ; for greatness he could not want. Neither could I condole in a word or syllable for him, as knowing no accident could do harm to virtue, but...
Strana 222 - There's not a budding boy or girl this day But is got up, and gone to bring in May.
Strana 307 - May, nuts in May. Here we come gathering nuts in May, On a cold and frosty morning.
Strana 189 - COME, lasses and lads, take leave of your dads, And away to the may-pole hie; For every he has got him a she, And the minstrel's standing by; For Willie has gotten his Jill, And Johnny has got his Joan, To jig it, jig it, jig it, Jig it up and down. 'Strike up,' says Wat; 'Agreed,' says Kate, 'And I prithee, fiddler, play;' 'Content,' says Hodge, and so says Madge, For this is a holiday.
