Side 423 - Nor fame, nor power, nor love, nor leisure. Others I see whom these surround — Smiling they live, and call life pleasure ; To me that cup has been dealt in another measure.
Side 266 - The herded wolves, bold only to pursue; The obscene ravens, clamorous o'er the dead; The vultures to the conqueror's banner true Who feed where Desolation first has fed, And whose wings rain contagion...
Side 179 - For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground And tell sad stories of the death of kings: How some have been deposed ; some slain in war ; Some haunted by the ghosts they have deposed ; Some poisoned by their wives ; some sleeping killed; All murdered...
Side 266 - The Pilgrim of Eternity, whose fame Over his living head like Heaven is bent, An early but enduring monument, Came, veiling all the lightnings of his song In sorrow; from her wilds lerne sent The sweetest lyrist of her saddest wrong, And love taught grief to fall like music from his tongue.

Side 319 - ... upon trust, that they, the said trustees, and the survivors and survivor of them, and the executors, administrators, and assigns, of such survivor...
Side 377 - To cold oblivion, though it is in the code Of modern morals, and the beaten road Which those poor slaves with weary footsteps tread, Who travel to their home among the dead By the broad highway of the world, and so With one chained friend, perhaps a jealous foe, The dreariest and the longest journey go.
