Стр. 159 - ... human, angel, man, Beast, bird, fish, insect, what no eye can see, No glass can reach; from Infinite to thee, From thee to nothing. On superior...
Стр. 147 - There has of late arisen a practice of giving to adjectives, derived from substantives, the termination of participles ; such as the cultured plain, the daisied bank ; but I was sorry to see, in the lines of a scholar like Gray, the honied spring.
Стр. 164 - With his loll'd tongue he faintly licks his prey ; His warm breath blows her flix up as she lies ; She, trembling, creeps upon the ground away, And looks back to him with beseeching eyes.
