Страница 307 - Ye mists and exhalations that now rise From hill or steaming lake, dusky or gray, Till the sun paint your fleecy skirts with gold, In honor to the world's great Author rise...
Страница 101 - And, as the earth's first mercy, so they are its last gift to us. When all other service is vain, from plant and tree, the soft mosses and grey lichen take up their watch by the head-stone.
Страница 101 - When all other service is vain, from plant and tree, the soft mosses and grey lichen take up their watch by the headstone.
