Strana 43 - Sally'd awhile, at once their peal renew, And high in air the tuneful thunder rolls. See, how they toss, with animated rage Recovering all they lost ! — That eager haste Some doubling wile foreshows. — Ah ! yet once more They're check'd, — hold...
Strana 91 - Confiding sure ; give him full scope to work His winding way, and with thy voice applaud His patience, and his care : soon...
Strana 61 - Wide-gaping threatens death. The craggy steep Where the poor dizzy shepherd crawls with care, And clings to every twig, gives us no pain ; But down we sweep, as stoops the falcon bold To pounce his prey. Then up the...

Strana 104 - Huntsman, bring Thy eager pack; and trail him to his couch. Hark! the loud peal begins, the clam'rous joy, The gallant chiding, loads the trembling air. Ye Naiads fair, who o'er these floods preside, Raise up your dripping heads above the wave, And hear our melody. Th...
Strana 76 - And such th' harmonious din, the soldier deems The battle kindling, and the statesman grave Forgets his weighty cares ; each age, each sex, In the wild transport joins ; luxuriant joy, And pleasure in excess, sparkling exult On every brow, and revel unrestrain'd.
