Σελίδα 101 - Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam, Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home ; A charm from the skies seems to hallow us there, Which, seek through the world, is ne'er met with elsewhere. Home ! home ! sweet, sweet home ! There's no place like home...
Σελίδα 180 - Sunk though he be beneath the watery floor. So sinks the day-star in the ocean bed, And yet anon repairs his drooping head, And tricks his beams, and with new-spangled ore Flames in the forehead of the morning sky : So Lycidas sunk low, but mounted high, Through the dear might of Him that walk'd the waves...
Σελίδα 180 - Through the dear might of Him that walked the waves, Where other groves and other streams along, With nectar pure his oozy locks he laves, And hears the unexpressive nuptial song In the blest kingdoms meek of joy and love. There entertain him all the Saints above, In solemn troops, and sweet societies, That sing, and singing in their glory move, And wipe the tears for ever from his eyes.
Σελίδα 84 - Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.

Σελίδα 256 - To charm the fish he never spoke, — Although his voice was fine, He found the most convenient way Was just to drop a line...
Σελίδα 272 - I could play with much more pleasure than if I had the thought of an unfinished task before my mind. I early formed the habit of doing everything in time, and it soon became easy to do so. It is to this I owe my prosper^." Let every one who reads this do likewise. COURTESIES. — How much does it cost you to say "I thank you" to your husband, your children, your domestics?
Σελίδα 104 - Ye who the power of God delight to trace, And mark with joy each monument of grace, Tread lightly o'er this grave, as ye explore 'The short and simple annals of the poor.' A child reposes underneath this sod, A child to memory dear, and dear to God. Rejoice, yet shed the sympathetic tear — Jane, the ' Young Cottager,
Σελίδα 32 - Let them chant in praise of the tar whose days Are spent on the ocean vast; I would render to these all the worship you please, I would honor them even now; But I'd give far more, from my heart's full store, To the cause of the good old plough.
Σελίδα 213 - Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.
