A thousand streams of the purest water, issuing from every hill, preserved the verdure of the earth and the temperature of the air...
الصفحة 172 - There was a time when meadow, grove, and stream, The earth, and every common sight, To me did seem Apparelled in celestial light, The glory and the freshness of a dream. It is not now as it hath been of yore; — Turn wheresoe'er I may, By night or day, The things which I have seen I now can see no more.
الصفحة 254 - O good old man ; how well in thee appears The constant service of the antique world, When service sweat for duty, not for meed...
