Pàgina 283 - The castled crag of Drachenfels("> Frowns o'er the wide and winding Rhine, Whose breast of waters broadly swells Between the banks which bear the vine, And hills all rich with blossom'd trees, And fields which promise corn and wine, And scatter'd cities crowning these, Whose far white walls along them shine, Have strew'da scene, which I should see With double joy wert thou with me ! 2.
Pàgina 420 - The forests had done it ; there they stood ; We caught for a moment the powers at play : They had mingled us so, for once and good, Their work was done — we might go or stay, They relapsed to their ancient mood.
Pàgina 365 - Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.
Pàgina 386 - Good Friend, for Jesus' sake, forbear To dig the dust enclosed here; Blest be the man that spares these stones And curst be he that moves my bones.
