Strana 151 - There are a sort of men whose visages Do cream and mantle like a standing pond...
Strana 22 - But she has treasured, and she loves them all ; When in her way she meets them, they appear Peculiar people — death has made them dear. He named his friend, but then his hand she prest, And fondly whisper'd, " Thou must go to rest ;"
Strana 277 - Though mangled, hack'd, and hew'd, not yet destroy'd ; The little ones, unbutton'd, glowing hot, Playing our games, and on the very spot ; As happy as we once, to kneel and draw The chalky ring, and knuckle down at taw...
Strana 9 - Far off the Petrel in the troubled way Swims with her Brood, or flutters in the Spray ; She rises often, often drops again, And sports at ease on the tempestuous Main.
Strana 275 - The ocean smiling to the fervid sun — The waves that faintly fall and slowly run — The ships at distance and the boats at hand ; And now they walk upon the sea-side sand, Counting the number and what kind they be, Ships softly sinking in the sleepy sea...

Strana 55 - Be brave then ; for your captain is brave, and vows reformation. There shall be in England seven halfpenny loaves sold for a penny ; the three-hooped pot shall have ten hoops ; and I will make it felony to drink small beer.
Strana 10 - Darkness begins to reign; the louder wind Appals the weak and awes the firmer mind; But frights not him, whom evening and the spray In part conceal — yon prowler on his way. Lo ! he has something seen ; he runs apace, As if he fear'd companion in the chase; He sees his prize, and now he turns again, Slowly and sorrowing — ' Was your search in vain ? ' Gruffly he answers, ' 'Tis a sorry sight ! 'A seaman's body; there'll be more to-night!
