Popularne fragmenty
Strona 157 - We thought, as we hollowed his narrow bed, And smoothed down his lonely pillow, That the foe and the stranger would tread o'er his head, And we far away on the billow ! Lightly they'll talk of the spirit that's gone, And o'er his cold ashes upbraid him ; But little hell reck if they let him sleep on In the grave where a Briton has laid him...
Strona 57 - Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception, in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children ; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
