Σελίδα 656 - The Lord bless thee, and keep thee : the Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee : the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
Σελίδα 446 - The laws of changeless justice bind Oppressor with oppressed; And close as sin and suffering joined We march to fate abreast.
Σελίδα 496 - O'er windy hill, through clogged ravine, And woodland paths that wound between Low drooping pine-boughs winter-weighed. From every barn a team afoot, At every house a new recruit, Where, drawn by Nature's subtlest law, Haply the watchful young men saw...
Σελίδα 646 - HERE lie I, Martin Elginbrodde; Hae mercy o' my soul, Lord God, As I wad do were I Lord God, And ye were Martin Elginbrodde.
Σελίδα 486 - O bells ! Every stroke exulting tells Of the burial hour of crime. Loud and long, that all may hear, Ring for every listening ear Of Eternity and Time !

This evening they are going to entertain their friends with readings from your poems and music.
Σελίδα 698 - NEW ENGLAND'S poet, rich in love as years, Her hills and valleys praise thee, her swift brooks Dance in thy verse ; to her grave sylvan nooks Thy steps allure us, which the wood-thrush hears As maids their lovers', and no treason fears ; Through thee her Merrimacs and Agiochooks And many a name uncouth win gracious looks, Sweetly familiar to both Englands...
Σελίδα 488 - The name he has left behind is none the less " pure " that instead of being " humble," as he then anticipated, it is on the lips of grateful millions, and written ineffaceable on the record of his country's trial and triumph : — " Yet not for me when I shall fall asleep Shall Santa Croce's lamps their vigils keep.
