Pàgina 23 - While we can, the sports of love, Time will not be ours for ever, He, at length, our good will sever ; Spend not then his gifts in vain ; Suns that set may rise again ; But if once we lose this light, 'Tis with us perpetual night.
Pàgina 26 - Thy valour and thy honesty together, For so it did in him. Ensign, this cuirass, Your general's necklace once. You gentle bearers, Divide this purse of gold : this other strew Among the poor. 'Tis all I have. Romont, Wear thou this medal of himself, that like A hearty oak grew'st close to this tall pine...
Pàgina 26 - ... and hack'd ye were, but never fell'd. For me, my portion provide in heaven: My root is earth'd, and I, a desolate branch, Left scatter'd in the highway of the world, Trod under foot, that might have been a column Mainly supporting our demolish'd house.

Pàgina 26 - And I have done. Captain, wear thou these spurs, That yet ne'er made his horse run from a foe. Lieutenant, thou this scarf ; and may it tie Thy valour and thy honesty together, For so it did in him. Ensign, this cuirass, Your general's necklace once. You gentle bearers, Divide this purse of gold : this other strew Among the poor. 'Tis all I have. Romont, Wear thou this medal of himself, that like A hearty oak grew'st close to this...
