Página 273 - Parched body, hollow eyes, some uncouth thing Made him appear, long since from earth exiled. There burst he forth: "All ye whose hopes rely On God, with me amidst these deserts mourn, Repent, repent, and from old errors turn!
Página 201 - A THING of beauty is a joy for ever : Its loveliness increases ; it will never Pass into nothingness ; but still will keep A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
Página 263 - My best guide now : methought it was the sound Of riot and ill-managed merriment, Such as the jocund flute, or gamesome pipe, Stirs up among the loose unletter'd hinds, When, for their teeming flocks, and granges full, In wanton dance they praise the bounteous Pan, And thank the gods amiss.
