Էջ 265 - So sleep, for ever sleep, O marble Pair ! Or, if ye wake, let it be then, when fair On the carved western front a flood of light Streams from the setting sun, and colours bright Prophets, transfigured Saints, and Martyrs brave, In the vast western window of the nave ; And on the pavement round the Tomb there glints A chequer-work of glowing...
Էջ 421 - "~THE world is very evil, The times are waxing late, Be sober and keep vigil, The Judge is at the gate...
Էջ 450 - With jasper glow thy bulwarks, Thy streets with emeralds blaze ; The sardius and the topaz Unite in thee their rays; Thine ageless walls are bonded With amethyst unpriced ; The saints build up its fabric, And the corner-stone is Christ.
