الصفحة 47 - Steadfast, serene, immovable, the same Year after year, through all the silent night Burns on for evermore that quenchless flame, Shines on that inextinguishable light...
الصفحة 81 - O death ! the poor man's dearest friend. The kindest and the best ! Welcome the hour my aged limbs Are laid with thee at rest ! The great, the wealthy, fear thy blow, From pomp and pleasure torn ; But, Oh ! a blest relief to those That weary-laden mourn ! A PRAYER, IN THE PROSPECT OF DEATH.
الصفحة 2 - Then waken into sound divine The very pavement of thy shrine, Till we, like Heaven's star-sprinkled floor, Faintly give back what we adore. Childlike though the voices be, And untunable the parts, Thou wilt own the minstrelsy, If it flow from childlike hearts.
الصفحة 19 - WITH joy the guardian angel sees A duteous child upon his knees, And writes in his approving book Each upward, earnest, holy look. Light from his pure aerial dream He springs to meet morn's orient beam And pours towards the kindling skies His clear adoring melodies.
