Sivu 15 - Tis thus the busy beat the air, And misers gather wealth and care. Now, ev'n now, my joys run high, As on the mountain-turf I lie; While the wanton zephyr sings, And in the vale perfumes his wings ; While the waters murmur deep ; While the shepherd charms his sheep ; While the birds unbounded fly, And with music fill the sky, Now, ev'n now, my joys run high.
Sivu 11 - In all the hues of heaven's bow, And, swelling to embrace the light, Spreads around beneath the sight.
Sivu 13 - Big with the vanity of state ; But transient is the smile of Fate ! A little rule, a little sway, A sun-beam in a winter's day, Is all the proud and mighty have Between the cradle and the grave.

Sivu 78 - First, howe'er, Drive to the double fold, upon the brim Of a clear river, gently drive the flock, And plunge them one by one into the flood...
Sivu 15 - Be full, ye courts ! be great who will ; Search for Peace with all your skill : Open wide the lofty door, Seek her on the marble floor : In vain...
Sivu 12 - The yellow beech, the sable yew, The slender fir that taper grows, The sturdy oak with broad-spread boughs.
Sivu 180 - Europeans ; whom the circling cup Of luxury intoxicates. Ye routs, Who for your crimes have fled your native land; And ye voluptuous idle, who in vain Seek...
