Adieu , adieu ! my native shore Fades o ' er the waters blue , The night winds sigh
, the breakers roar , And shrieks the wild sea mew . ' I have said ... Hardly were
we out of the harbor , when the wind rose , and drove us furiously on our course .

THEORY OF WEST AND NORTH - WEST WINDS . I PROCEED to offer a few
remarks by way of a Theory of West and North - West Winds . These are the most
generally prevailing winds that we have , and ordinarily they are much the

As a port , Suez is infinitely superior to Cosseir , farther down the Red Sea ; and
the difficulty of access to it from the southward , on account of the prevailing
northerly winds , may be considered as its greatest if not its only disadvantage .

Than yonder gallant ship , with all her sails Woving the winds , can cross from
morn till eve . His bright eyes were his compass , earth his chart , His talons
anchored on the stormiest cliff , And on the very light - house rock he perched ,

Popularne fragmenty
Strona 235 - Shaped by himself with newly-learned art ; A wedding or a festival, A mourning or a funeral ; And this hath now his heart, And unto this he frames his song : Then will he fit his tongue To dialogues of business, love, or strife ; But it will not be long Ere this be thrown aside, And with new joy and pride The little actor cons another part ; Filling from time to time his
Strona 402 - Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools. And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
Strona 567 - And now to that same spot in the south of Spain, are thirty similar French artisans, from a French Dumdrudge, in like manner wending : till at length, after infinite effort, the two parties come into actual juxta-position, and Thirty stands fronting Thirty, each with a gun in his hand. Straightway the word
Strona 459 - Herostratus lives that burnt the temple of Diana, he is almost lost that built it ; Time hath spared the epitaph of Adrian's horse, confounded that of himself. In vain we compute our felicities by the advantage of our good names, since bad have...
Strona 219 - So many mermaids, tended her i' the eyes, And made their bends adornings ; at the helm A seeming mermaid steers ; the silken tackle Swell with the touches of those flower-soft hands, That yarely frame the office. From the barge A strange invisible perfume hits the sense Of the adjacent wharfs. The city cast Her people out upon her, and Antony, Enthron'd i...
Strona 266 - twere anew, the gaps of centuries ; Leaving that beautiful which still was so, And making that which was not, till the place Became religion, and the heart ran o'er With silent worship of the great of old — The dead...
Strona 567 - Fire!" is given: and they blow the souls out of one another: and in place of sixty brisk, useful craftsmen, the world has sixty dead carcasses, which it must bury, and anew shed tears for. Had these men any quarrel? Busy as the Devil is, not the smallest! They lived far enough apart: were the entirest strangers: nay. in so wide a Universe, there was even, unconsciously, by Commerce, some mutual helpfulness between them. How then? Simpleton! Their governors had fallen out: and instead of shooting...
Strona 370 - I've met him, faced him, scorned him, when the fight was raging hot; — I'll try his might, I'll brave his power; — defy, and fear him not. "Ho! sound the tocsin from my tower, and fire the culverin ; Bid each retainer arm with speed; call every vassal in ! Up with my banner on the wall! — The banquetboard prepare; Throw wide the portal of my hall, and bring my armor there!
Strona 219 - The barge she sat in, like a burnish'd throne, Burn'd on the water: the poop was beaten gold ; Purple the sails, and so perfumed that The winds were love-sick with them : the oars were silver ; Which to the tune of flutes kept stroke, and made The water, which they beat, to follow faster, As amorous of their strokes.
Strona 504 - Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth ; and having on the breast-plate of righteousness ; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace ; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God...
