A timid grace sits trembling in her eye,

At length, my lord, I have the bliss,

At Sarra, in the land of Tartarie,

A village is a hive of glass,

Awake, my soul, and with the sun,.

Awake my St. John, leave all meaner things

A word spoken in due season, how good is it.
Ay me, what perils do environ

Beauties, have ye seen this toy

Before the starry threshold of Jove's court

Be good, sweet maid, and let who will be clever
Behold her, single in the field,

[blocks in formation]

Be Homer's works your study and delight
Ben Battle was a soldier bold,

[blocks in formation]

Breathes there the man with soul so dead
But facts are chiels that winna ding,

But how he will come and whither he goes,

Cæsar himself could never say

Can any mortal mixture of earth's mould

Can you paint a thought?

Captain or Co-lo-nel or Knight at arms!

Care-charming Sleep, thou easer of all woes,

Cheeks as soft as July peaches

Down by yon hazel copse, at evening blazed

Dread offspring of the holy light within,
Drink to me only with thine eyes

Earth has not anything to show more fair,
E'en such is Time, which takes in trust-

Eke Plato sayeth, whoso can him read,
Ever charming, ever new,

Every word that he speaks has been fierily furnaced

Falling out of faithful friends.

Fancies are but streams of vain pleasure

Farewell, a long farewell to all my greatness,

Farewell happy fields, where joy for ever dwells

Farewell! thou child of my right hand, and joy
Father of all, in every age

Fear no more the heat o' the sun,

[ocr errors]

Fierce wars and faithful loves shall moralize my song,

First when Maggie was my care,

Flow gently, sweet Afton--

Fly hence shadows, that do keep

Follow pleasure, and then will pleasure flee,

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.

For I who hold sage Homer's rule the best

For talents mourn untimely lost,
Forth she went out unattended;

For Truth has such a face and such a mien,
For you, my love, is all my fear!

Fresh clad from Heaven in robes of white,
Friends, Romans, Countrymen,

Friend to my life, which did not you prolong
From rosy bowers we issue forth,

From you, Ianthe, little troubles pass

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,"

Give Cartwright his Parliaments fresh every year
Give me again my hollow tree,

Give me a look, give me a face,

Give to the winds thy fears

Glories, pleasures, pomps, delights, and ease,

Glory to thee, my God, this night!.

Go, and catch a falling star,

God of my life! and Author of my days

God prosper long our noble king,

Go, little book, thyself present,

Gone! they ne'er go!

Go when the morning shineth,

[ocr errors]

Go, you may call it madness, folly, .

Grace was in all her steps, Heaven in her eye.

Had I but served my God with half the zeal
Hail, beauteous stranger of the grove!

Hail, holy Light! offspring of Heaven, firstborn!
Happy the man, and happy he alone,

Hark, hark, the lark!

Hark, his hands the lyre explore!

Has life so little store of real woes,

Hasting to pay his tribute to the sea

Hear! Land of Cakes, and brother Scots,
Heaven lies about us in our infancy

He best can paint them who can feel them most

He hath showed thee, O man, what is good,
Hence all you vain delights

Hence away, nor dare intrude!
Hence, loath-ed Melancholy,
Hence, vain deluding joys,

He prayeth best who loveth best,

Her air, her smile, her motions told

Here lies David Garrick, describe me who can

Here in the body pent-

Here Reynolds is laid, and, to tell you my mind,

Here Rogers sat, and here for ever dwell
Here stands proclaimed a general mart, .

Her eyes the glow-worm lend thee.

Her life to lead us up to Heaven was lent us, .

Howe'er we gaze with admiration –

How happy is he born and taught.

How many thousand of my poorest subjects
How richly glows the water's breast
Hues of the rich unfolding morn

Hush! my dear, lie still and slumber,

I am His Highness's dog at Kew

I bring fresh showers for the thirsting flowers.
I can call spirits from the vasty deep.

[merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][ocr errors][merged small][merged small]

I dare do all that may become a man,
I'd mourn the hopes that leave me,
If any man or woman, in country or in city,
If God build not the house, and lay
If it be true that any beauteous thing

I fruitless mourn to him that cannot hear

If that the world and love were young,

If thou wouldst view fair Melrose aright
I go, pursuant to my plan,

I got me flowers to straw thy way;

I hate the man who builds his name

I have had playmates, I have had companions

I have no name, I am but two days old.

I hear a voice you cannot hear,

heard a thousand blended notes,

I live for those who love me,

I'll hope no more for things that will not come

I may liken learning to a shield

I mourn no more my vanished years,

In beauty or wit,

In full-blown dignity see Wolsey stand,
In her living maidens might-en read,
In Homer's craft Jock Milton thrives,
In moderation placing all my glory
In the house of pure Emanuel

In your sweet simple nature of woman

I pr'ythee no more, dear importunate friend!

I remember when the fight was done,

I saw thee weep-the big bright tear—
see a form, I see a face,

[ocr errors][merged small]

It is an old saying, that few words are best

It fell once in a morn of May.

It is in vain you do conjure me

It is not growing like a tree

It is not the tear at this moment shed,

It's no in titles nor in rank,

It warms me, it charms me,

Katerfelto with his hair on end

Kindred objects kindred thoughts inspire
Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much

Lament who will, in fruitless tears,

Lead kindly Light! amid the encircling gloom,
Lead us with thy gentle sway

Learn of the little nautilus to sail

Music, when soft voices die

My conscience is my crown,

[ocr errors]

My days have been so wondrous free,
My hair is grey but not with years,
My hopes retire, my wishes as before
My life is cold and dark and weary !
My mind to me a kingdom is,

Mysterious night, when our first Parent knew.

Nature fits all her children with something to do,
Nephew of Fox, and friend of Grey,

Nine-and-twenty knights of fame

Nobles and heralds, by your leave,

No longer mourn for me when I am dead

Nor can the snow which now cold Age does shed,
Nor doth it lessen what he taught
