Popularne fragmenty
Strona 36 - Grief fills the room up of my absent child, Lies in his bed, walks up and down with me, Puts on his pretty looks, repeats his words, Remembers me of all his gracious parts, Stuffs out his vacant garments with his form; Then, have I reason to be fond of grief ? Fare you well: had you such a loss as I, I could give better comfort than you do.
Strona 118 - The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together: our virtues would be proud if our faults whipped them not ; and our crimes would despair if they were not cherished by our virtues.
Strona 47 - Ah little think they, while they dance along, How many feel, this very moment, death And all the sad variety of pain.
Strona 147 - For he who fights and runs away May live to fight another day ; But he who is in battle slain Can never rise and fight again.
Strona 47 - How many feel, this very moment, death And all the sad variety of pain. How many sink in the devouring flood, Or more devouring flame. How many bleed, By shameful variance betwixt man and man. How many pine in want, and dungeon glooms; Shut from the common air, and common use Of their own limbs.
Strona 28 - TV oppreflbr's wrong, the proud man's contumely, The pangs of defpis'd love, the law's delay, The infolence of office, and the fpurns ., That patient merit of the unworthy takes, When he himfelf might his quietus make With a bare bodkin...
Strona 22 - Indiana do make and publish this my last Will and Testament hereby revoking and making void all former Wills by me at any time heretofore made.
Strona 53 - Cerberus, guards each avenue to the heart, so that pleasure does not approach. Happy! thrice happy ! are those who are blessed with an independent competence, and can confine their wants within the bounds of that competence, be it what it may. To such alone the bread of life is palatable and nourishing. Sweet is the morsel that is acquired by an honest industry, the produce of which is permanent, or that flows from a source which will not fail. A subsistence, that is precarious, or procured by an...
Strona 42 - Though plung'd in ills, and exercis'd in care, Yet never let the noble mind despair: When press'd by dangers, and beset with foes, The gods their timely succour interpose ; And when our virtue sinks, o'erwhelm'd with grief, By unforeseen expedients, bring relief.
Strona 133 - Barker, or his certain attorney, executors, administrators, or assigns ; for which payment well and truly to be made, I bind myself, my heirs, executors, and administrators, firmly by these presents, sealed with my seal.
