Strana 413 - Let there be light, and light was over all; Why am I thus bereaved thy prime decree? The sun to me is dark And silent as the moon, When she deserts the night Hid in her vacant interlunar cave.
Strana 124 - The sound must seem an echo to the sense : Soft is the strain when Zephyr gently blows, And the smooth stream in smoother numbers flows ; But when loud surges lash the sounding shore, The hoarse, rough verse should like the torrent roar: When Ajax strives some rock's vast weight to throw, The line too labours, and the words move slow : Not so, when swift Camilla scours the plain, Flies o'er th' unbending corn, and skims along the main.

Strana 48 - Whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, even so do unto them ; for this is the law and the prophets.
Strana 82 - Which they beheld, the moon's resplendent globe, And starry pole : « Thou also mad'st the night, Maker Omnipotent! and thou the day...
