Strona 399 - They fought, like brave men, long and well ; They piled that ground with Moslem slain; They conquered— but Bozzaris fell, Bleeding at every vein. His few surviving comrades saw His smile when rang their proud hurrah, And the red field was won; Then saw in death his eyelids close, Calmly, as to a night's repose, Like flowers at set of sun.
Strona 144 - Unto a stranger thou mayest lend upon usury ; but unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon usury : that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all that thou settest thine hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
Strona 496 - The hawthorn bush, with seats beneath the shade, For talking age and whisp'ring lovers made...
Strona 401 - Such graves as his are pilgrim-shrines, Shrines to no code or creed confined, — The Delphian vales, the Palestines, The Meccas of the mind.
