In vain may death and time subdue , While Nature mints her race anew , And
holds some vital spark apart , Like virtue , hid in ev'ry heart . ' Tis hence reviving
warmth is seen To clothe a naked world in green , No longer barr'd by winter's
cold ...

... heav'n - appointed way , For thee , lost maid , for thee alone , Nor pray'rs shall
plead , nor tears atone : Reproach , scorn , infamy , and bate , On thy returning
steps shall wait , Thy form be loath'd by ev'ry eye , And ev'ry foot thy presence fly .

الصفحة 168 - THE Lord my pasture shall prepare, And feed me with a shepherd's care ; His presence shall my wants supply, And guard me with a watchful eye ; My noonday walks he shall attend, And all my midnight hours defend.
الصفحة 171 - Ten thousand thousand precious gifts My daily thanks employ; Nor is the least a cheerful heart, That tastes those gifts with joy.
الصفحة 166 - Near yonder copse, where once the garden smiled, And still where many a garden flower grows wild ; There, where a few torn shrubs the place disclose, The village preacher's modest mansion rose.

Now fades the glimmering landscape on the sight, And all the air a solemn stillness holds, Save where the beetle wheels his droning flight, And drowsy tinklings lull the distant folds...
الصفحة 116 - Swinging slow with sullen roar; Or if the air will not permit, Some still removed place will fit, Where glowing embers through the room Teach light to counterfeit a gloom, Far from all resort of mirth, Save the cricket on the hearth, Or the bellman's drowsy charm To bless the doors from nightly harm.
الصفحة 24 - From seeming Evil still educing Good, And better thence again, and better still, In infinite progression.
الصفحة 109 - To hear the lark begin his flight, And singing startle the dull night, From his watch-tower in the skies, Till the dappled Dawn doth rise...
الصفحة 134 - With every plant, in sign of worship wave. Fountains and ye that warble, as ye flow, Melodious murmurs, warbling tune his praise : Join voices, all ye living souls ; ye birds, That singing up to heaven-gate ascend, Bear on your wings and in your notes his praise...
