الصفحة 1 - O how canst thou renounce the boundless store Of charms which Nature to her votary yields ! The warbling woodland, the resounding shore, The pomp of groves, and garniture of fields; All that the genial ray of morning gilds, And all that echoes to the song of even, All that the mountain's sheltering bosom shields, And all the dread magnificence of Heaven...
الصفحة 41 - When thy last look, ere thought and feeling fled, A mingled gleam of hope and triumph shed ; What to thy soul its glad assurance gave, Its hope in death, its triumph o'er the grave ? The sweet Remembrance of unblemished youth, The still inspiring voice of Innocence and Truth...
الصفحة 181 - ... instructors of these times: should they hear, that law was branded as a vain and even unjust attempt to bring individual actions under the restrictions of general rule; that chastity was defined to mean only individuality of affection ; that religion was degraded into a sentimental effusion; and that these doctrines do not proceed from the pen of avowed profligates, but from persons apparently actuated by the desire of improving the happiness of the world: should, I say, generations yet unborn...
الصفحة 119 - Others apart fat on a hill retir'd, In thoughts more elevate, and reafon'd high, Of providence, foreknowledge, will, and fate ; Fix'd fate, free will, foreknowledge abfolut* ; 560 And found no end, in wandring mazes loft.
الصفحة 193 - Pleasure's lying tales allur'd, From the bright sun and living breeze ye stray ; And, deep in London's gloomy haunts immur'd, Brood o'er your fortune's, freedom's, health's decay. O blind of choice and to yourselves untrue ! The young grove shoots, their bloom the fields renew, The mansion asks its lord, the swains...

الصفحة 181 - A mafter felf, that loves to domineer, And treat the monarch frankly as the flave. How doft thou light a torch to diftant deeds ? Make the paft, prefent ; and the future, frown ?
