Strana 3 - Invoke thy aid to my advent'rous song, That with no middle flight intends to soar 15 Above th' Aonian mount, while it pursues Things unattempted yet in prose, or rhyme. And chiefly Thou, O SPIRIT ! that dost prefer Before all temples the upright heart and pure, Instruct me, for Thou knowest: Thou from the first
Strana xi - the invocation of Dame Memory, and her Syren daughters; but by devout prayer to that Eternal Spirit, who can enrich with all utterance and knowledge, and sends out his Seraphim with the hallowed fire of his altar, to touch and purify the lips of whom he pleases.
Strana 10 - shield, 285 Ethereal temper, massy, large, and round, Behind him cast: the broad circumference Hung on his shoulders like the moon, whose orb Through optic glass the Tuscan artist views At ev'ning, from the top of Fesole, 290 Or in Valdarno, to descry new lands, Rivers, or mountains, in her spotty globe. His
Strana 10 - Here for his envy;—will not drive us hence : " Here we may reign secure; and, in my choice, ," To reign is worth ambition, though in hell: " Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heaven. " But wherefore let we then our faithful friends, 265 " The associates and copartners of our loss,

Strana 95 - Him first, him last, him midst, and without end! " Fairest of stars! last in the train of night, " If better thou belong not to the dawn,— " Sure pledge of day, that crown'st the smiling morn " With thy bright circlet,—praise him in thy sphere, 170 " While day arises, that sweet hour of prime.
Strana 87 - slunk;—all but the wakeful nightingale ; She, all night long, her amorous descant sung ; Silence was pleas'd: now glow'd the firmament 605 With living sapphires; Hesperus, that led The starry host, rode brightest; till the moon, Rising in clouded majesty, at length, Apparent queen, unveil'd her peerless light, And o'er the dark her silver mantle threw.
