... blood - dimm❜d brow Fame's chaplet withers soon . Away ! Away ! we soon shall see The sons of war and blood Condemned to cold obscurity , Whelm'd in oblivion's flood ; For peace , o'er all This earthly ball , E'en now begins to bud ...

Side 109 - every one who employs me shall always find me punctual ; for I am a man of honour, sir, and to convince you I would not forfeit it, the gentleman whom I have just sent home by your own order, gave me fifty pistoles to make an end of you.

At last we entered a thickly wooded glen, and, after following it for half-an-hour, we reached the monastery of Tismana, the most beautiful on the Carpathians. The date of its foundation and the name of its founder are unknown, as it is the most ancient establishment in Wallachia ; it was repaired in the year 1366, by Radu Negru, whose Roman Catholic princess...
