Side 205 - Of fruits, and flowers, and bunches of knot-grass, And diamonded with panes of quaint device, Innumerable of stains and splendid dyes, As are the tiger-moth's deep-damask'd wings; And in the midst, 'mong thousand heraldries, And twilight saints, and dim emblazonings, A shielded scutcheon blush'd with blood of queens and kings.
Side 44 - Soldier, rest! thy warfare o'er, Sleep the sleep that knows not breaking; Dream of battled fields no more, Days of danger, nights of waking. In our isle's enchanted hall, Hands unseen thy couch are strewing; Fairy strains of music fall, Every sense in slumber dewing. Soldier, rest! thy warfare o'er...
Side 205 - Showed many a prophet, and many a saint, Whose image on the glass was dyed ; Full in the midst, his Cross of Red Triumphant Michael barndished, And trampled the Apostate's pride. The moon-beam kissed the holy pane, And threw on the pavement a bloody stain.
Side 245 - I have seen," continues my author, " a quintain set upon Cornhill by Leadeuball, where the attendants of the lords of merry disports have run and made great pastime; for he that hit not the board end of the quintain was laughed to scorn, and he that hit it full, if he rode not the faster, had a sound blow upon his neck with a bag full of sand hanged on the other end.

Side 55 - Jive pounds, one half thereof to our lord the king, and the other half to him that will sue for the same, to be recovered in an action of debt in any court of record in the united kingdom, with full costs of suit. Provided always, that such action shall be commenced within ninety days after the day of taking such toll. And be it further enacted, that this act shall commence from...
Side 187 - List wound, he gave three legacies : his soule to his Lord Jesus, his body to be lodged in Flemish earth, his heart to be sent to his dear wife in England. Here lies his wounded heart, for whome One kingdom was too small a roome : Two kingdoms therefore have thought good to part So stout a body and so brave a heart.
Side 205 - Full on this casement shone the wintry moon, And threw warm gules on Madeline's fair breast, As down she knelt for heaven's grace and boon ; Rose-bloom fell on her hands, together prest, And on her silver cross soft amethyst, And on her hair a glory, like a saint: She seem'da splendid angel, newly drest, Save wings, for heaven: Porphyro grew faint: She knelt, so pure a thing, so free from mortal taint.
