Стр. 68 - Who hath not proved how feebly words essay To fix one spark of Beauty's heavenly ray? Who doth not feel, until his failing sight Faints into dimness with its own delight, His changing cheek, his sinking heart confess The might, the majesty of Loveliness...
Стр. 244 - ... hardihood to follow us into the trackless and unknown Atlantic, without any other guides than their own feeble knowledge ; and we will depart with the return of the sun. All now dependeth on quitting the Canaries unseen.
