Página 9 - Upon the billows rising — all the deep Is restless change ; the waves so swell'd and steep, Breaking and sinking, and the sunken swells, Nor one, one moment, in its station dwells : But nearer land you may the billows trace, As if contending in their watery chase ; May watch the mightiest till the shoal they reach, Then break and hurry to' their utmost stretch ; Curl'd as they come, they strike with furious force, And then re-flowing, take their grating course, Raking the rounded flints, which...
Página 277 - Though mangled, hack'd, and hew'd, not yet destroy'd ; The little ones, unbutton'd, glowing hot, Playing our games, and on the very spot ; As happy as we once, to kneel and draw The chalky ring, and knuckle down at taw...

O'er all within the lady-hostess rules, Her bar she governs, and her kitchen schools ; To every guest th...

Página 254 - Who, undisturb'd by feelings just or kind, Would parish-boys to needy tradesmen bind; They in their want a trifling sum would take, And toiling slaves of piteous orphans make.
Página 140 - Not warn'd by misery, not enrich'd by gain ; Whom justice pitying, chides from place to place, A wandering, careless, wretched, merry race, Who cheerful looks assume, and play the parts Of happy rovers with repining hearts ; Then cast off care, and in the mimic pain Of tragic...
Página 9 - Th' unwieldy porpoise through the day before Had roll'd in view of boding men on shore ; And sometimes hid and sometimes show'd his form, Dark as the cloud, and furious as the storm. All where the eye delights, yet dreads to roam, The breaking billows cast the flying foam Upon the billows rising — all the deep Is restless change ; the waves so...
Página 21 - Thomas, I must die : Would I could see my Sally, and could rest My throbbing temples on her faithful breast, And gazing go ! — if not, this trifle take, And say till death I wore it for her sake ; Yes ! I must die — blow on, sweet breeze, blow on ! Give me one look before my life be gone, Oh ! give me that, and let me not despair, One last fond look — and now repeat the prayer.
Página 22 - The friendly many, and the favourite few; Nor one that day did he to mind recall But she has treasured, and she loves them all; When in her way she meets them, they appear Peculiar people — death has made them dear.
