Side 131 - The cheerful lark, mounting from early bed, With sweet salutes awakes the drowsy light; The earth she left, and up to heav'n is fled ; There chants her maker's praises out of sight.
Side x - Gainst whom he always bent a brazen shield, Which his right hand unarmed fearfully did wield. With him went Hope in rank, a handsome maid, Of chearfull look and lovely to behold; In silken samite she was light array'd, And her fair locks...
Side 169 - His certain life, that never can deceive him, Is full of thousand sweets, and rich content : The smooth-leaved beeches in the field receive him With coolest shades, till...
