Стр. 44 - FORGIVE and forget ! why the world would be lonely, The garden a wilderness left to deform, If the flowers but remembered the chilling winds only, And the fields gave no verdure for fear of the storm !

Стр. 154 - Word. And Youth came in his blush of health, And in a moment fell ; And Avarice, grasping still at wealth, Was rolled into hell ; And Age stood trembling at the pass, And would have turned again ; But Time said, " No, 'tis never so, Thou canst not here remain." The bride came in her wedding robe — But that did nought avail ; Her ruby lips went cold and blue, Her rosy cheek turn'd pale ! And some were hurried from the ball, And some came from the play ; And some were eating to the last, And some...
Стр. 19 - I would not be A leaf on yonder aspen tree ; In every fickle breeze to play, Wildly, weakly, idly, gay, — So feebly framed, so lightly hung, »^ By the wing of an insect stirred and swung ; Thrilling...
Стр. 17 - I asked the stars in the pomp of night, Gilding its blackness with crowns of light, Bright with beauty, and girt with power, Whether eternity were not their dower ; And dirge-like music stole from their spheres, Bearing this message to mortal ears...
