... fancy cast , Was lumber'd in an age so void of taste : But when the Second Charles assum'd the sway , And arts reviv'd beneath a softer day , Then , like a bow long forc'd into a curve , The mind , releas'd from too constrain'd a nerve ...

Strana 231 - Of my favourite field, and the bank where they grew ; And now in the grass behold they are laid, And the tree is my seat that once lent me a shade.

Strana 129 - He says but little, and that little said Owes all its weight, like loaded dice, to lead, His wit invites you by his looks to come, But when you knock, it never is at home.
Strana 98 - Fired with a zeal peculiar, they defy • The rage and rigour of a polar sky, And plant successfully sweet Sharon's rose On icy plains, and in eternal snows.
Strana 238 - Fond of the speculative height, Thither he wings his airy flight, And thence securely sees The bustle and the raree-show That occupy mankind below, Secure and at his ease.
Strana 239 - He sees that this great roundabout, The world, with all its motley rout, Church, army, physic, law, Its customs, and its businesses, Is no concern at all of his, And says — what says he? — Caw.
Strana 254 - And all the world would stare, If wife should dine at Edmonton, And I should dine at Ware.
