Էջ 72 - WINTER. THOU hast thy beauties: sterner ones, I own, Than those of thy precursors ; yet to thee Belong the charms of solemn majesty And naked grandeur. Awful is the tone Of thy tempestuous nights, when clouds are blown By hurrying winds across the troubled sky ; Pensive, when softer breezes faintly sigh Through leafless boughs, with ivy overgrown. Thou hast thy decorations too ; although Thou art austere : thy studded mantle, gay With icy brilliants, which as proudly glow As erst Golconda's ; and...
Էջ 94 - Now in thy youth, beseech of Him Who giveth, upbraiding not; That his light in thy heart become not dim, And his love be unforgot; And thy God, in the darkest of days, will be, Greenness, and beauty, and strength to thee.
Էջ 209 - Sun, and moon, and stars shine o'er thee, See thy surface ebb, and flow ; Yet attempt not to explore thee In thy soundless depths below. Whether morning's splendours steep thee With the rainbow's glowing grace ; Tempests rouse, or navies sweep thee, 'Tis but for a moment's space.
Էջ 222 - WHITE !t while life was in its spring, And thy young Muse just waved her joyous wing. The spoiler came ; and all thy promise fair, Has sought the grave, to sleep for ever there. Oh ! what a noble heart was here undone, When Science...
Էջ 203 - The angelic orders, and inferior creatures mute, Irrational and brute ? Nor do I name of men the common rout, That, wandering loose about, Grow up and perish, as the summer fly, Heads without name, no more remembered...
Էջ 52 - Woman ! believe me, the hour is near, When He, if ye rightly would hail him, Will neither be worshipped exclusively here, Nor yet at the altar of Salem.
Էջ 92 - DOST thou not love, in the season of spring, To twine thee a flowery wreath, And to see the beautiful birch-tree fling Its shade on the grass beneath ? Its glossy leaf, and its silvery stem ; Oh dost thou not love to look on them...
Էջ 164 - I shall not forget, until memory depart, When first I beheld it, the glow of my heart ; The wonder, the awe, the delight that stole o'er me, When its billowy boundlessness opened before me.
Էջ 26 - Fond dreamer! meditate thine idle song! But let thine idle song remain unknown: The verse, which cheers thy solitude, prolong; What, though it charm no moments but thine own, Though thy loved Psyche smile for thee alone, Still shall it yield thee pleasure, if not fame, And when, escaped from tumult, thou hast flown To thy dear silent hearth's enlivening flame, There shall the...
Էջ 263 - O preserve me still From dulness, nor let cold indifference steep My senses in oblivion: if the thrill Of early bliss must sober, as it will, And should, when earthly things to heavenly yield. I would have feelings left time cannot chill; That, while I yet can walk through grove or field, I may be conscious there of charms by thee reveal'd.
