Strona 196 - Are God and Nature then at strife, That Nature lends such evil dreams? So careful of the type she seems, So careless of the single life...
Strona 154 - I WAGE not any feud with Death For changes wrought on form and face ; No lower life that earth's embrace May breed with him can fright my faith. Eternal process moving on, From state to state the spirit walks ; And these are but the shatter'd stalks, Or ruin'd chrysalis of one.
