Страница 270 - For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red ; it is full of mixture ; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.
Страница 121 - And in the midst of this wide quietness A rosy sanctuary will I dress With the wreath'd trellis of a working brain, With buds, and bells, and stars without a name, With all the gardener Fancy e'er could feign, Who breeding flowers, will never breed the same: And there shall be for thee all soft delight That shadowy thought can win, A bright torch, and a casement ope at night, To let the warm Love in!
Страница 394 - Cypresse grew in greatest store, And trees of bitter Gall, and Heben sad ; Dead sleeping Poppy, and black Hellebore ; Cold Coloquintida, and Tetra mad ; Mortall Samnitis, and Cicuta bad, With which th...

Страница 431 - I did not paint it to be understood, but I wished to show what such a scene was like : I got the sailors to lash me to the mast to observe it ; I was lashed for four hours, and I did not expect to escape, but I felt bound to record it if I did. But no one had any business to like the picture.
Страница 119 - Alpine cliff, far from all house or work of men, looking up to its companies of pine, as they stand on the inaccessible juts and perilous ledges of the enormous wall, in quiet multitudes, each like the shadow of the one beside it — upright, fixed, spectral, as troops of ghosts standing on the walls of Hades, not knowing each other — dumb for ever.
Страница 444 - and to the worm, " Thou art my mother, and my sister.
