Side 409 - The armaments which thunder-strike the walls Of rock-built cities, bidding nations quake, And monarchs tremble in their capitals ; The oak leviathans, whose huge ribs make Their clay creator the vain title take Of lord of thee, and arbiter of war ; — These are thy toys, and, as the snowy flake, They melt into thy yeast of waves, which mar Alike the Armada's pnde, or spoils of Trafalgar.
Side 409 - Roll on, thou deep and dark blue Ocean, roll ! Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain ; Man marks the earth with ruin, his control Stops with the shore ; upon the watery plain The wrecks are all thy deed...
Side 409 - His steps are not upon thy paths, — thy fields Are not a spoil for him, — thou dost arise And shake him from thee; the vile strength he wields For earth's destruction, thou dost all despise, Spurning him from thy bosom to the skies, And sendst him, shivering in thy playful spray, And howling to his gods, where haply lies His petty hope in some near port or bay, And dashest him again to earth; there let him lay.
Side 527 - A new Prometheus, chained upon the rock, Still grasping in his hand the fire of Jove, It does not hear the cry, nor heed the shock, But hails the mariner with words of love.

His steps are not upon thy paths, — thy fields Are not a spoil for him...

Side 478 - Her Majesty has great satisfaction in congratulating the country, and the world at large, on the successful accomplishment of the great design of connecting Europe and America by the means of an electric telegraph. It is hardly possible to anticipate the full extent of the benefits which may be conferred on the human race by this signal triumph of scientific enterprise ; and Her Majesty has pleasure in expressing her deep sense of what is due to the private energy which, in spite of repeated failure...
Side 14 - Espent, who sent up my private letter to him. And now may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with us all. Your truly devoted and now nearly dying hnshand, GW Gordon.
Side 654 - NW Coast of Scotland, 46; Irish Coast, 146; Isle of Man, 15; Lundy Island, 3; Scilly Isles, 5. As regards the loss of life, the returns show that the number lost from shipwreck on or near the coast of the United Kingdom, in 1865, was 698. These lives were lost in 164 ships; 124 of them were laden vessels...
Side 478 - The Queen congratulates the President on the successful completion of an undertaking which she hopes may serve as an additional bond of union between the United States and England.
