Страница 259 - While the yellow linnet sings : Or the tuneful nightingale Charms the forest with her tale ; Come with all thy various hues, Come, and aid thy sister Muse. Now, while Phoebus riding high, Gives lustre to the land and sky, Grongar Hill invites my song, Draw the landscape bright and strong.

Страница 380 - Enlarge the brightening sky, and, peopling, warm The opening valleys and the yellowing plains ?
