Strona 104 - Under the greenwood tree Who loves to lie with me, And tune his merry note Unto the sweet bird's throat — Come hither, come hither, come hither! Here shall he see No enemy But winter and rough weather. Who doth ambition shun And loves to live i' the sun, Seeking the food he eats And pleased with what he gets — Come hither, come hither, come hither!
Strona 177 - But to storm with all the forces we have mentioned, was too risky; So they hurried off to Richmond for the Government Marines — Tore them from their weeping matrons, fired their souls with Bourbon whiskey, Till they battered down Brown's castle with their ladders and machines; And Old Brown, Osawatomie Brown, Received three bayonet stabs, and a cut on his brave old crown, Tallyho ! the old Virginia gentry gather to the baying ! In they rushed and killed the game, shooting lustily away; And whene'er...
Strona 169 - Borderstrife grew warmer, Till the Rangers fired his dwelling, in his absence — in the night — And Old Brown, Osawatomie Brown, Came homeward in the morning — to find his house burned down. Then he grasped his trusty rifle, and boldly fought for Freedom ; Smote from border unto border the fierce, invading...
Strona 173 - Grew more sullen, till was over the bloody Border War, And Old Brown, Osawatomie Brown, Had gone crazy, as they reckoned by his fearful glare and frown. So he left the plains of Kansas and their bitter woes behind him, Slipt off into Virginia, where the statesmen all are born, Hired a farm by Harper's Ferry, and no one knew where to find him, Or whether...
Strona 195 - Quando mi diparti' da Circe, che sottrasse me più d'un anno là presso a Gaeta, prima che sì Enea la nomasse, né dolcezza di figlio, né la pietà del vecchio padre, né '1 debito amore lo qual dovea Penelope far lieta, vincer poterò dentro a me l'ardore ch'i...
Strona 177 - tis said, some prisoners escaped from Old Brown's durance, And the effervescent valor of the Chivalry broke out, When they learned that nineteen madmen had the marvellous assurance — Only nineteen — thus to seize the place and drive them straight about; And Old Brown, Osawatomie Brown, Found an army come to take him, encamped around the town. But to storm, with all the forces...
Strona 158 - Love ! Love ! What times were those, Long ere the age of belles and beaux, And Brussels lace and silken hose, When, in the green Arcadian close, You married Psyche under the rose, With only the grass for bedding! Heart to heart, and hand to hand, You followed Nature's sweet command, Roaming lovingly through the land, Nor sighed for a Diamond Wedding. So have we read in classic Ovid, How Hero watched for her beloved, Impassioned youth, Leander. She was the fairest of the fair, And wrapt him round...
Strona 168 - Grandissimo Bastinado — That gold-encrusted, fortunate man — All will land in naked equality: The lord of a ribboned principality Will mourn the loss of his cordon; Nothing to eat and nothing to wear Will certainly be the fashion there ! Ten to one, and I'll go it alone; Those most used to a rag and bone, Though here on earth they labor and groan, Will stand it best, as they wade abreast To the other side of Jordan.
Strona 195 - Penelope far lieta, vincer potero dentro a me l'ardore eh' i' ebbi, a divenir del mondo esperto e degli vizi umani e del valore ; ma...
Strona 171 - But in peace, behind his plow-share — and they loaded him with chains, And with pikes, before their horses, even as they goad their cattle, Drove him cruelly, for their sport, and at last blew out his brains ; Then Old Brown, Osawatomie Brown, Raised his right hand up to Heaven, calling Heaven's vengeance down. And he swore a fearful oath, by the name of the Almighty, He would hunt this ravening evil that had scathed and torn him so ; He would seize it by the vitals ; he would crush it day and...
