Էջ 227 - at the close, And keep the flame from wasting by repose ; I still had hopes, for pride attends us still, Amid the swains to show my book-learn'd skill. Around my fire an evening group to draw, And tell of all I felt and all 1 saw ; And as a hare, whom hounds and
Էջ 230 - The whitewash'd wall, the nicely-sanded floor. The varnish'd clock that click'd behind the door: The chest, contrived a double debt to pay, A bed by night, a chest of drawers by day; The pictures placed for ornament and use, The twelve good rules, the royal game of goose.'

Էջ 343 - ten times a day: Though secure of our hearts, yet confoundedly sick If they were not his own by finessing and trick: He cast off his friends as a huntsman his pack, For he knew, when he pleased, he could whistle them back Of praise a mere glutton, he

While the pent ocean, rising o'er the pile. Sees an amphibious world before him smile The slow canal, the yellow blossom'd vale, The willow-tufted bank, the gliding
