Sida 13 - Yet he was kind — or, if severe in aught, The love he bore to learning was in fault.
Sida 43 - ... loudly his sweet voice he rears! He loves to talk with marineres That come from a far countree. "He kneels at morn, and noon, and eve — He hath a cushion plump: It is the moss that wholly hides The rotted old oak-stump. "The skiff-boat neared: I heard them talk, 'Why, this is strange, I trow!
