Страница 368 - a should not think of God ; I hoped there was no need to trouble himself with any such thoughts yet: So, 'a bade me lay more clothes on his feet : I put my hand into the bed, and felt them, and they were as cold as any stone ; then I felt to his knees, and so upward, and upward, and all was as cold as any stone.
Страница 372 - She dwelt among the untrodden ways Beside the springs of Dove, A Maid whom there were none to praise And very few to love : A violet by a mossy stone Half hidden from the eye! Fair as a star, when only one Is shining in the sky.
Страница 190 - Here thou, great ANNA ! whom three realms obey, Dost sometimes counsel take — and sometimes tea.
Страница 367 - Yet shun their fault, who, scandalously nice, Will needs mistake an author into vice ; All seems infected that th' infected spy, As all looks yellow to the jaundic'd eye.
Страница 362 - From each she nicely culls with curious Toil, And decks the Goddess with the glitt'ring Spoil. This Casket India's glowing Gems unlocks, And all Arabia breathes from yonder Box. The Tortoise here and Elephant unite, Transform'd to Combs, the speckled and the white.

Страница 249 - Nature in her then erred not, but forgot. "With every pleasing, every prudent part, Say, what can Chloe want?"— She wants a heart.

Страница 196 - As to any remuneration, you may think my songs either above or below price ; for they shall absolutely be the one or the other.

A proof of each of the songs that I compose or amend I shall receive as a favour.
Страница 101 - twill take root and flourish there, though under foot 'tis trod. When law can stop the blades of grass from growing as they grow, And when the leaves in summer-time their verdure dare not show, Then I will change the colour that I wear in my caubeen, But till that day, please God, I'll stick to wearing of the Green.
Страница 196 - AFTER all my boasted independence, curst Necessity -compels me to implore you for five pounds. A cruel scoundrel of a Haberdasher, to whom I owe an account, taking it into his head that I am dying, has commenced a process, and will infallibly put me into jail.
