Էջ 414 - My boat is on the shore, And my bark is on the sea ; But, before I go, Tom Moore, Here's a double health to thee !

Էջ 333 - Go, from the creatures thy instructions take : Learn from the birds what food the thickets yield ; Learn from the beasts the physic of the field: Thy arts of building from the bee receive; Learn of the mole to plough, the worm to weave ; Learn of the little nautilus to sail ; Spread the thin oar, and catch the driving gale...
