Página 280 - PAUCOS, XXXV. OB. FEB. XVI. MDCCXX. STATESMAN, yet friend to Truth! of soul sincere, In action faithful, and in honour clear! Who broke no promise, served no private end, Who gain'd no title, and who lost no friend; Ennobled by himself, by all approved, Praised, wept, and honour'd, by the Muse he loved.
Página 124 - Justice lift aloft her scale; Peace o'er the world her olive wand extend, And white-robed Innocence from heaven descend. 20 Swift fly the years, and rise the expected morn! Oh spring to light, auspicious Babe, be born! See Nature hastes 7 her earliest wreaths to bring, With all the incense of the breathing spring:

Sudden, these honours shall be
Página 125 - ch. xxxv. ver. 1.—" The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad, and the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose." Ch. Ix. ver. 18.—" The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fir-tree, the pine-tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of
Página 192 - At every trifle scorn to take offence, That always shows great pride, or little sense; Those heads, as stomachs, - are not sure the best, Which nauseate all, and nothing can digest.

Ye heavens! 3 from high the dewy nectar pour, And in soft silence shed the kindly shower! * The 5 sick and weak the healing plant shall aid,
