Sivu 70 - I saw rain falling and the rainbow drawn On Lammermuir. Hearkening I heard again In my precipitous city beaten bells Winnow the keen sea wind. And here afar, Intent on my own race and place, I wrote.
Sivu 67 - The Holy Supper is kept, indeed, In whatso we share with another's need; Not what we give, but what we share, ! For the gift without the giver is bare; Who gives himself with his alms feeds three, Himself, his hungering neighbor, and me.
Sivu 70 - MY WIFE TRUSTY, dusky, vivid, true, With eyes of gold and bramble-dew, Steel-true and blade-straight, The great artificer Made my mate. Honour, anger, valour, fire; A love that life could never tire, Death quench or evil stir, The mighty master Gave to her. Teacher, tender, comrade, wife, A fellow-farer true through life, Heart-whole and soul-free The august father Gave to me.
Sivu 24 - Young heads are giddy, and young hearts are warm, And make mistakes for manhood to reform. Boys are, at best, but pretty buds unblown, Whose scent and hues are rather...
Sivu 74 - Take them and keep them, Silvery thorn and flower, Plucked just at random In the rosy weather — Snowdrops and pansies, Sprigs of wayside heather, And five-leafed wild-rose Dead within an hour. Take them and keep them : Who can tell ? some day, dear, (Though they be withered, Flower and thorn and blossom,) Held for an instant Up against thy bosom, They might make December Seem to thee like May, dear...
Sivu 71 - JUNE BRACKEN AND HEATHER. To . THERE on the top of the down, The wild heather round me and over me June's high blue, When I look'd at the bracken so bright and the heather so brown, I thought to myself I would offer this book to you, This, and my love together, To you that are seventy-seven, With a faith as clear as the heights of the June-blue heaven, And a fancy as summer-new As the green of the bracken amid the gloom of the heather.
Sivu 37 - ... region. The historian of science, from early periods to the present time, may hope for favor on the score of the mere subject of his narrative, and in virtue of the curiosity which the men of the present day may naturally feel respecting the events and persons of his story." II. Although Harriott was the first who described the natural characteristics of North America, it would not be proper to ignore the fact that the first scientific exploration of the western continent was accomplished by...
Sivu 19 - Many a man lives a burden to the earth ; but a good book is the precious life blood of a master spirit, embalmed and treasured up on purpose to a life beyond life...
Sivu 75 - Bonaparte An entire volume might be compiled on the variations of dedications to wives, for it has long been traditional for an author, in an encomiastic address, to ascribe his success, or his potential success, to his wife's influence. A typical example is to be found in Coventry Patmore's The Angel in the House: This Poem is inscribed to the memory of Her By whom and for whom I became a poet.
Sivu 70 - For, old and new, All that is good in them belongs Only to you. And singing as when always young, They will recall Those others, lived but left unsung — The best of all.
