The summer sunshine falls O'er the hot vistas of the crowded town, Mantling the
dusty walls With beauty and with glory not their own ; The summer skies are
bright, A canopy of peace above the strife Of human hearts, that fight And
struggle on ...

Be fill'd with grateful joy, For 'tis a blessed privilege to dwell Where little the alloy
Of art hath cast its cold restraining spell. Yet for the common lot Of bright hope
dimm'd, of woe thou yet may'st share, Even in that lonely spot, Bend thou the
knee, ...

By every glorious star, Seen in the azure sky, serene and bright, Send wisdom
from afar Leading my spirit to the source of light. "The dew when day is done
Should teach me how thy Spirit's dew can bless ; By the pure rising sun Remind
me of ...

... Its waters flash through leaf and flower — O ! merrily they go ; Like living things,
their voices pour Dim music as they flow. Sinless and pure they seek the sea, As
souls pant for eternity ; — Heaven speed their bright course till they sleep In the ...

And lo ! even like a giant wight Slumbering his battle toils away, The sleep-lock'd
city, gleaming bright With many a dazzling ray, Lies stretched in vastness at my
feet ; Voiceless the chamber and the street, And echoless the hall; Had Death ...

Popularne fragmenty
Strona 159 - O'er other creatures : yet when I approach Her loveliness, so absolute she seems, And in herself complete, so well to know Her own, that what she wills to do or say Seems wisest, virtuousest, discreetest, best...
Strona 173 - YES! in the sea of life enisled, With echoing straits between us thrown, Dotting the shoreless watery wild, We mortal millions live alone.
Strona 87 - How wonderful is Death, Death and his brother Sleep ! One, pale as yonder waning moon With lips of lurid blue ; The other, rosy as the morn When throned on ocean's wave It blushes o'er the world : Yet both so passing wonderful...
Strona 384 - And thinking of the days that are no more. Fresh as the first beam glittering on a sail That brings our friends up from the underworld, Sad as the last which reddens over one That sinks with all we love below the verge; So sad, so fresh, the days that are no more.
Strona 383 - The path of duty was the way to glory : He that walks it, only thirsting For the right, and learns to deaden Love of self, before his journey closes, He shall find the stubborn thistle bursting Into glossy purples, which outredden All voluptuous garden-roses. Not once or twice in our fair island-story, He, that ever following her commands, On with toil of heart and knees and hands, Thro...
Strona 272 - Long, sparkling aisles of steel-stemmed trees Bending to counterfeit a breeze; Sometimes the roof no fretwork knew But silvery mosses that downward grew; Sometimes it was carved in sharp relief With quaint arabesques...
Strona 217 - Or hear'st thou rather pure ethereal stream, Whose fountain who shall tell? Before the sun, Before the heavens, thou wert, and at the voice Of God, as with a mantle, didst invest The rising world of waters dark and deep, Won from the void and formless Infinite!
Strona 95 - Music, when soft voices die, Vibrates in the memory — Odours, when sweet violets sicken, Live within the sense they quicken. Rose leaves, when the rose is dead, Are heaped for the beloved's bed; And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone, Love itself shall slumber on.
Strona 193 - Wanderers in that happy valley Through two luminous windows saw Spirits moving musically, To a lute's well-tuned law, Round about a throne where, sitting, "Porphyrogene, In state his glory well befitting, The ruler of the realm was seen.
Strona 383 - And all the rule, one empire: only add Deeds to thy knowledge answerable; add faith, Add virtue, patience, temperance; add love, By name to come call'd charity, the soul Of all the rest: then wilt thou not be loath To leave this Paradise, but shalt possess A paradise within thee, happier far.
