Trang 144 - Conspicuous scene ! another yet is nigh, (More silent far) where kings and poets lie; Where Murray (long enough his country's pride) Shall be no more than Tully or than Hyde...
Trang 309 - His guide to happiness on high. And see ! 'Tis come, the glorious morn ! the second birth Of heaven and earth ! awakening nature hears The new-creating word, and starts to life, In every heighten'd form, from pain and death For ever free.
Trang 309 - Virtue sole survives, Immortal, never-failing friend of man, His guide to happiness on high. And see! Tis come, the glorious morn! the second birth Of heaven and earth! Awakening Nature hears The new-creating word, and starts to life, In every heightened form, from pain and death For ever free.
Trang xv - Cupid at my heart, Still as his mother favour'd you, Threw a new flaming dart. Each gloried in their wanton part : To make a lover he Employed the utmost of his art, To make a beauty she.
Trang xxx - Not to be solicitous what men will say or think, so long as I keep myself exactly according to the rule of justice.

Trang xv - The face of the court was much changed in the change of the king, for King Charles was temperate, chaste, and serious ; so that the fools and bawds, mimics and catamites, of the former court, grew out of fashion ; and the nobility and courtiers, who did not quite abandon their debaucheries, had yet that reverence to the king to retire into corners to practise them.
