الصفحة 169 - The stifling wave, and then he sank. No poet wept him ; but the page Of narrative sincere, That tells his name, his worth, his age, Is wet with Anson's tear : And tears by bards or heroes shed Alike immortalize the dead. I therefore purpose not, or dream, Descanting on his fate, To give the melancholy theme A more enduring date : But misery still delights to trace Its semblance in another's case. No voice divine the storm allayed, No light propitious shone, When, snatched from all effectual aid,...
الصفحة 393 - Where the thin harvest waves its wither'd ears; Rank weeds, that every art and care defy, Reign o'er the land and rob the blighted rye : There thistles stretch their prickly arms afar, And to the ragged infant threaten war ; There poppies nodding, mock the hope of toil...

الصفحة 298 - All will be dry, and we must die, 'cause Essex calves want pasture. Away with boats and rudder, farewell both boots and skatches, No need of one nor th'other, men now make better matches; Stilt-makers all and tanners shall complain of this disaster; For they will make each muddy lake for Essex calves a pasture. The...
الصفحة 275 - ... riding at the head of two thousand people through such a town as Lynn, dining with above two hundred of them, amid bumpers, huzzas, songs, and tobacco, and finishing with country dancing at a ball and sixpenny whisk ! I have borne it all cheerfully ; nay, have sat hours in conversation, the thing upon earth that I hate, have been to hear misses play .on the harpsichord, and to see an alderman's copies of Rubens and Carlo Marat! Yet, to do the folks justice, they are sensible, and reasonable,...
الصفحة 185 - But never more could see the man Approaching from the town : Their pretty lips with blackberries Were all besmear'd and dyed.
الصفحة 110 - WHEN the funeral pyre was out, and the last valediction over, men took a lasting adieu of their interred friends, little expecting the curiosity of future ages should comment upon their ashes ; and, having no old experience of the duration of their reliques, held no opinion of such after-considerations.
