Strana 112 - So may we join the choir invisible Of those immortal dead, who live again In minds made better by their presence — live In pulses stirred to generosity, In deeds of daring rectitude, in scorn Of miserable aims that end with self, In thoughts sublime that pierce the night like stars.
Strana 293 - the Choir invisible Of those immortal dead who live again In minds made better by their presence: live In pulses stirred to generosity, In deeds of daring rectitude, in scorn Of miserable aims that end with self, In thoughts sublime that pierce the night like stars.
Strana 212 - Wee, sleekit, cowrin', tim'rous beastie, O, what a panic's in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae hasty Wi' bickerin' brattle! I wad be laith to rin an' chase thee, Wi' murderin' pattle! " I'm truly sorry man's dominion Has broken Nature's social union, And justifies that ill opinion Which makes thee startle

Strana 214 - art blest, compared wi' me! The present only toucheth thee: But och! I backward cast my e'e On prospects drear! And forward, though I canna see, I guess an
Strana 89 - I will have never a noble, No lineage counted great; Fishers and choppers and ploughmen Shall constitute a state. " Call the people together, The young men and the sires, The digger in the harvest field, Hireling and him that hires; " And here in a pine state-house They shall choose men to rule In every needful faculty, In church and state and school.
Strana 220 - forfoughten sair eneugh, Yet unco proud to learn — Even then, a wish — I mind its power,— A wish that to my latest hour Shall strongly heave my breast, That I for poor auld Scotland's sake Some usefu' plan or book could make, Or sing a sang at least. The rough burr-thistle spreading wide Among the bearded bear, I turned the weeder-clips aside, And spared the symbol dear.
Strana 89 - The word of the Lord by night To the watching Pilgrims came, As they sat by the seaside, And filled their hearts with flame. " God said, I am tired of kings, I suffer them no more; Up to my ear the morning brings The outrage of the poor.
