Pagina 14 - Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever the earth and the world were made, thou art God from everlasting, and world without end.
Pagina 122 - Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us, Footprints on the sands of time; Footprints, that perhaps another, Sailing o'er life's solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother, Seeing, shall take heart again.
Pagina 159 - To them his heart, his love, his griefs were given, But all his serious thoughts had rest in Heaven.

Pagina 200 - Not yet enslaved, not wholly vile, O Albion ! O my mother isle ! Thy valleys, fair as Eden's bowers, Glitter green with sunny showers ; Thy grassy uplands' gentle swells Echo to the bleat of flocks {Those grassy hills, those glittering dells Proudly ramparted with rocks) ; And Ocean, 'mid his uproar wild, Speaks safety to his island-child ! Hence, for many a fearless age Has social Quiet loved thy shore ! Nor ever proud invader's rage Or sacked thy towers, or stained thy fields with gore.

The hills are shadows, and they flow From form to form, and nothing stands ; They melt like mist, the solid lands, Like clouds they shape themselves and go. But in my spirit will I dwell, And dream my dream, and hold it true ; For tho' my lips may breathe adieu, I cannot think the thing farewell.
Pagina 106 - There is a path which no fowl knoweth, And which the vulture's eye hath not seen: The lion's whelps have not trodden it, Nor the fierce lion passed by it.
