Side 128 - Alma quies, optata, veni, nam sic sine vita, Vivere quam suave est ; sic sine morte mori!
Side 12 - Armine's wealth, were Armine's fame. His heart no selfish cares confined, He felt for all that feel distress, And, still benevolent and kind, He blest them, or he wish'd to bless. For what though Fortune's frown deny With wealth to bid the sufferer live ? Yet Pity's hand can oft supply A balm she never knew to give : Can oft with lenient drops assuage The wounds no ruder hand can heal, When Grief, Despair, Distraction, rage, While Death the lips of Love shall seal. Ah ! then, his anguish to remove,...
Side 42 - Elvira blush'd the warm reply, (To love a language not unknown,) The milder glories fill'd her eye, And there a softer lustre shone. The yielding smile that 's half suppress'd, The short, quick breath, the trembling tear, The swell tumultuous of the breast, In Armine's favour all appear. At each kind glance their souls unite, While love's soft sympathy imparts The tender transport of delight That beats in undivided hearts. Respectful to his lips he press'd Her yielded hand ; in haste away Her yielded...
Side 42 - Kespectful to his lips he press'd Her yielded hand ; in haste away Her yielded hand she drew, distress'd, With looks that witness'd wild dismay. " Ah ! whence, fair Excellence, those fears ? What terror unforeseen alarms ?" " See, where a father's frown appears !" She said, and sunk into his arms. " My daughter ! Heavens, it cannot be ! And yet it must — Oh, dire disgrace ! Elvira have I lived to see Clasp'd in a peasant's vile embrace...
Side 4 - Unerring Sway ; And while his eye to heaven he raised, Its silent waters stole away. Life's gayer ensigns once he bore — Ah ! what avails the mournful tale ? Suffice it, when the scene was o'er, He fled to the sequester'd vale. " What though the joys I loved so well, The charms...
Side xv - ... Undazzled shares with him Heaven's brightest glow, Or penetrates the boundless depths below ; Or on the sloping sun-beam joys to ride, Or sails amidst the uncreated void ; Imbibes a portion of his sacred flame, Reflects his genius, and partakes his fame. THE LAST ADIEU, BY LAURA SOPHIA TEMPLE. And Death, with Nature's noblest works at strife, Quench'd the fair star that smil'd upon his life.
Side 126 - twas mine to roam. I reach'd the object of my views sublime, And richly freighted, bore my cargo home. My friends expectant fill the crowded strand; But ere I gain the shore, what storms arise! My vessel founders e'en in sight of land! And now a wreck upon the beach she lies ! With firm, unshaken mind that wreck I see, " Nor think the doom of man should be reversed for me.
Side 30 - He said; and as the trembling dove, , Sent forth t" explore the watery plain, Soon fear'd her flight might fatal prove, And sudden sought her ark again— His heart recoil'd, as one that rued What he too hastily confest; And all the rising soul, subdued, Sought refuge in his inmost breast. The tender strife Elvira saw...
Side 14 - Extends her liberal hand to all. " By Sympathy's untutor'd voice Be taught her social laws to keep ; Rejoice with them that do rejoice, And weep with them that weep. " The heart that bleeds for others' woes, Shall feel each selfish sorrow less ; His breast who happiness bestows, Reflected happiness shall bless.
