Стр. 164 - Beneath those rugged elms, that yew tree's shade, Where heaves the turf in many a mouldering heap, Each in his narrow cell forever laid, The rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep.
Стр. 239 - Still thou turnedst, and still Beckonedst the trembler, and still Gavest the weary thy hand.

Стр. 127 - As they are seated, there is not one point to distinguish them from men : the dressing and powdering of the hair; their wellstarched neckcloths ; the upper part of their habits, which they always wear, even at a dinner-party, made precisely like men's coats; and regular black beaver men's hats. They looked exactly like two respectable superannuated old clergymen...
Стр. 370 - A towering, mighty fastness-rock. In its sides, above those leaping crests, The thronging sea-birds built their nests. "What a disagreeable daub!" said she; "Why, it isn't anything like the sea!" Then he painted a stretch of hot, brown sand, With a big hotel on either hand, And a handsome pavilion for the band — Not a sign of the water to be seen Except one faint little streak of green.
