Strana 284 - Poh poh ! child, pray dismiss your idle dread ; I would not hurt a hair of that sweet head ; Well then, with one kind kiss of friendship meet me :' ' La, Sir,' quoth Miss, with seeming artless tongue, ' I fear our salutation would be long ; So loving too, I fear that you would eat me.
Strana 123 - ... you cannot thrive. Shame, shame, to fill your hut with such a train! Shame to get brats for others to maintain! Get, get a wooden leg, or one of cork: Wood's cheapest — yes, get wood, and go to work. But mind, mind, Sailor — hae, hae...
Strana 21 - VIRTUE'S caufe fo faint ; Like DAVID in his youth, a lawlefs fwain ! Preferring (let me own with blufhing face) The ftorms of PASSION to the calms of GRACE; One ounce of p leaf are to a pound of pain.
Strana 317 - Whofe joys muft like a whirlwind pour along. Calmly let me begin and end Life's chapter, Ne'er panting for a hurricane of rapture; Calm let me walk — not riotous and jumping; With due decorum let my heart Perform a fober, quiet part — Not at the ribs be ever bumping, bumping!
Strana 44 - Proud to be gaz'd at by a reptile race : Charm'd with the mufic of their clanking chains, Pleas'd with the fog of STATE that clouds their brains, Who cry, with all the impudence of face, • " Behold your GODS! — down, rafcals, on your knees ; " Your money, mifcreants — quick, no werds, no ftrife; " Your lands too, fcoundrels, vermin, lice, bugs, fleas ; " And thank our mercy that allows you life !" Thus fpeak the HIGHWAYMEN in purple pride, On Slavey's poor gall'd back fo wont to ride.
Strana 209 - Behold the lark in ether float, While rapture swells the liquid note ! What warbles he, with merry cheer ? "Let Love and Pleasure rule the year!
Strana 117 - Plumps in, and fills the village with amaze. He's off" again : he smokes along the road. Pursue him, Pye ; pursue him with an ode : And yet a pastoral might better please, That talks of sheep and hay, and beans and peas ; . Of trees cut down that Richmond's lawn adorn, To gain the pittance of a peck of corn*. He reaches Weymouth ; treads the Esplanade : Hark, hark, the jingling bells! the cannonade! Drums beat, the hurdygurdies grind the air ; Dogs, cats, old women, all upon the stare. All Weymouth...
Strana 183 - MIS'RY feek my cot with fighs, And humbly fue for piteous alms my ear; Yet difappointed go with lifted eyes, And on my threfhold leave th' upbraiding tear ? Thou boweft for the pity I beftow : Bend not to me, becaufe I mourn diftrefs ; I am thy debtor — much to thee I owe ; For learn — the greatcft bleffing is to blefs.
Strana 23 - PATHETIC ODES. THE DUKE OF RICHMOND'S DOG THUNDER, AND THE WIDOW'S PIGS: A TALE. THE POOR SOLDIER OF TILBURY FORT. ODE TO CERTAIN FOREIGN SOLDIERS. ODE TO EASTERN TYRANTS. THE FROGS AND JUPITER, A FABLE. THE DIAMOND PIN AND CANDLE, A FABLE. THE SUN AND THE PEACOCK. A FABLE.
