Страница 49 - APPY the man, who, void of cares and strife, In silken or in leathern purse retains A Splendid Shilling: he nor hears with pain New oysters cry'd, nor sighs for cheerful ale ; But with his friends, when nightly mists arise, To Juniper's Magpie, or Town-Hall...
Страница 52 - Of loving friend, delights; distress 'd, forlorn, Amidst the horrors of the tedious night, Darkling I sigh, and feed with dismal thoughts My anxious mind ; or sometimes mournful verse Indite, and sing of groves and myrtle shades, Or desperate lady near a purling stream, Or lover pendent on a willow-tree.
Страница 31 - I'd bid adieu, Of dean, vice pres. — of bursar too ; Come joys, that rural quiet yields, Come, tithes, and house, and fruitful fields !" Too fond of freedom and of ease A patron's vanity to please, Long time he watches, and by stealth, Each frail incumbent's doubtful health ; At length, and in his fortieth year, A living drops — two hundred clear ! With...
Страница 71 - Rest to the weary, to the hungry food, The last kind refuge of the wise and good. Inspired by thee, dull cits adjust the scale Of Europe's peace, when other statesmen fail By thee protected, and thy sister, beer, Poets rejoice, nor think the bailiff near. Nor less the critic owns thy genial aid, While supperless he plies the piddling trade.
Страница 51 - Sure ruin ; so her disembowell'd web Arachne in a hall or kitchen spreads, Obvious to vagrant flies ; she secret stands Within her woven cell ; the humming prey, Regardless of their fate, rush on the toils Inextricable, nor will aught avail...
Страница 53 - My galligaskins, that have long withstood The winter's fury and encroaching frosts, By time subdued (what will not time subdue !) An horrid chasm disclose, with orifice Wide, discontinuous ; at which the winds Eurus and Auster, and the dreadful force Of Boreas, that congeals the Cronian waves, Tumultuous enter, with dire chilling blasts Portending agues.
Страница 51 - First have endued : if he his ample palm Should haply on ill-fated shoulder lay Of debtor, straight his body, to the touch Obsequious (as whilom knights were wont), To some enchanted castle is convey'd, Where gates impregnable and coercive chains In durance strict detain him, till, in form Of money, Pallas sets the captive free.
Страница 50 - Horrible monster ! hated by gods and men, To my aerial citadel ascends, With vocal heel thrice thundering at my gate, With hideous accent thrice he calls; I know The voice ill-boding, and the solemn sound. What should I do...
Страница 34 - I sell my college life (He cries) for benefice and wife ? Return, ye days ! when endless pleasure I found in reading, or in leisure ; When calm around the common room I...
Страница 92 - I go, The News of the Town so impatient to know: While Law, Locke and Newton, and all the rum Race That talk of their Modes, their Ellipses, and Space, The Seat of the Soul, and new Systems on high, In Holes, as abstruse as their Mysteries lye.
