Strana 228 - These see the works of the Lord, and His wonders in the deep. For He commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof. They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble. They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits
Strana 228 - They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters ; These see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.
Strana 66 - His form was of the manliest beauty. His heart was kind and soft; Faithful below he did his duty, But now he's gone aloft. Tom never from his word departed His virtues were so rare ; His friends were many and true-hearted, His Poll was kind and fair : And then he'd sing so blithe and jolly; Ah, many's the time and oft! But mirth is turned to melancholy, For Tom is gone aloft.
Strana 168 - And now the cannons roar Along the affrighted shore; Our Nelson led the way, His ship the Vict'ry named; Long be that Vict'ry famed, For vict'ry crowned the day. But dearly was that conquest bought, Too well the gallant hero fought, For England, home, and beauty. He cried, as midst the fire...
Strana 118 - Thus was I, sleeping, by a brother's hand Of life, of crown, of queen, at once dispatch'd: Cut off even in the blossoms of my sin, Unhousel'd, disappointed, unanel'd, No reckoning made, but sent to my account With all my imperfections on my head: O, horrible!
Strana 65 - Which is the properest day to drink, Saturday, Sunday, Monday ? Each is the properest day, I think, Why should I name but one day ? Tell me but yours, I'll mention my day, Let us fix on some day : Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday.
Strana 48 - I got upon my feet, and endeavoured to make on towards the land as fast as I could before another wave should return and take me up again. But I soon found it was impossible to avoid it; for I saw the sea come after me as high as a great hill, and as furious as an enemy which I had no means or strength to contend with.
Strana 129 - Bach man's rigged out A vessel stout, To take for life a trip. The shrouds, the stays, the braces, Are joys, and hopes, and fears ; The halliards, sheets, and traces, Still, as each passion veers, And whim prevails, Direct the sails, As on the sea of life he steers.
Strana 57 - Arthur, you must let me stay for five minutes. I have made up my mind what I am going to do to-night in the House. The debate on the Argentine Canal is to begin at eleven. (A chair falls in the drawing-room.) What is that?
Strana 34 - Dan, indeed, was wonderfully learned about birds and their habits, and possessed a singular power over them. He could train them to do almost anything. And, bear this in mind, he used no cruel means in his training of them. What he taught them...
