Стр. 398 - No flocks that range the valley free To slaughter I condemn : Taught by that power that pities me, I learn to pity them : ' But from the mountain's grassy side A guiltless feast I bring ; A scrip with herbs and fruits supplied, And water from the spring.

That art so exquisitely wild, 1 think of thee with many fears For what may be thy lot in future years.
Стр. 29 - All, all are gone, the old familiar faces. I loved a love once, fairest among women; Closed are her doors on me, I must not see her — All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.
Стр. 73 - Labor is rest — from the sorrows that greet us, Rest from all petty vexations that meet us, Rest from sin-promptings that ever entreat us, Rest from world-sirens that lure us to ill.
Стр. 69 - And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Take this child and nurse it for me, and I will pay your wages.
