Էջ 141 - But ever and anon of griefs subdued There comes a token like a scorpion's sting, Scarce seen, but with fresh bitterness imbued; And slight withal may be the things which bring Back on the heart the weight which it would fling Aside for ever: it may be a sound A tone of music—summer's eve—or spring A flower—the wind—the ocean—which shall wound, Striking the electric chain wherewith we are darkly bound.
Էջ 115 - By Heaven ! it is a splendid sight to see (For one who hath no friend, no brother there) Their rival scarfs of mix'd embroidery, Their various arms that glitter in the air!

Էջ 1 - The tinklings of some vigilant guitars Of sleepless lovers to a wakefu I mistress, And cautious opening of the casement.
