Страница 53 - Th' invoking ravens in the greenwood wide; And though their throats coarse rattling hurt the ear, They mean it all for music, thanks and praise They mean, and leave ingratitude to man, — But not to all, — for hark the organs blow Their swelling notes round the cathedral's dome, And grace th...
Страница 80 - O'er twice three pickers, and no more, extend The bin-man's sway; unless thy ears can bear The crack of poles continual, and thine eyes Behold unmoved the hurrying peasant tear Thy wealth, and throw it on the thankless ground.

Страница 128 - Fitz-Osborne,41 and with inimitable effrontery published it in his INSPECTOR No. 239, as a production of his own. We are informed that, having been taxed with this affair, he declares with a great deal of art, that it was given him by another person, to which all we have to say is, that the receiver is as bad as the thief.
Страница xx - One advantage is also to be gained from the sight of poor countries; we learn to know the comforts of our own.
