But pleasures are like poppies spread;
Sivu 240 - thro' rocks abrupt, and sounding far: Then o'er the sanded valley, floating, spreads, Calm, sluggish, silent: till again constrain'd Betwixt two meeting hills, it bursts away, Where rocks and woods o'erhang the turbid stream. There gathering triple force, rapid and deep, It boils, and wheels, and foams, and thunders thro'. Nature! great parent! whose
Sivu 89 - 1726. * See WINTER comes to rule the varied year, Sullen and sad ; with all his rising train Vapours, and clouds, and storms: Be these my theme, These, that exalt the soul to solemn thought, And heavenly musing. Welcome, kindred glooms
