Strana 228 - Almighty's form Glasses itself in tempests; in all time, Calm or convulsed; in breeze or gale or storm, Icing the pole, or in the torrid clime Dark-heaving, boundless, endless, and sublime, — The image of Eternity, the throne Of the Invisible; even from out thy slime The monsters of the deep are made; each zone Obeys thee; thou goest forth, dread, fathomless, alone.

Strana 335 - Confirm, I pray, the vision with thy voice: This is our palace, — yonder is thy throne; Speak, and the floor thou tread'st on will rejoice. Not to appal me have the gods bestowed This precious boon; and blest a sad abode.
Strana 3 - 11 seek by day some glade unknown, All light and silence, like Thy throne ; And the pale stars shall be, at night, The only eyes that watch my...
Strana 103 - ... were quite apparent in her attire, her language, her sentiments, and even in her feelings, — though neither, perhaps, rose to the level of those which would properly characterize a lady.

Strana 154 - I'll own to a miss. The Quartermaster cut the wood, but you'll find no wood cut by that last messenger.
