Sida 95 - Oh ! ever thus, from childhood's hour, I've seen my fondest hopes decay ; I never loved a tree or flower, But 'twas the first to fade away. I never nursed a dear gazelle. To glad me with its soft black eye, But when it came to know me well, And love me, it was sure to die ! Now too — the joy most like divine Of all I ever dreamt or knew.
Sida 54 - ... churchyard and, pointing to the various headstones, said : "My folks are all buried there, Jennie. Wad ye like to be buried there too?" IMPECUNIOUS LOVER — "Be mine, Amanda, and you will be treated like an angel," WEALTHY MAIDEN — "Yes, I suppose so.
Sida 10 - ... comprehensive and philanthropic scale. Every alderman takes a stall , and to give you an idea of the enthusiasm of the city — but this also is a secret — the Lady Mayoress has been up three nights making pincushions.
Sida 7 - The very man. Corks. (Reads.) " He ventures on a state benevolence as a timid spinster ventures on sea-bathing. He stands shivering on the brink of good intentions ; dabbles, splashes a little ; and, making noise enough to bring all the world about him, never has the heart to plunge right in.
Sida 13 - Water lilies and aquatic plants gemming the translucent crystal, shells of rainbow brightness, a constant supply of gold and silver fish, with the right of angling secured to shareholders. The extent of the river being necessarily limited, will render lying there so select, so very respectable. DOUGLAS JERROLD. DREAMS. FROM " ROMEO AND JULIET." ERCUTIO.—O then, I see, queen Mab hath been with you. She is the fairies...
Sida 13 - Eiver for a Grand Junction Temperance Cemetery. Brown. What ! so many watery graves ? Smoke. Yes, sir, with floating tombstones. Here's the prospectus. Look here ; surmounted by a hyacinth — the very emblem of temperance — a hyacinth flowering in the limpid flood. Now, if you don't feel equal to the lucifers — I know his lordship's goodness, — he'll give you up the cemetery.
Sida 10 - Skindeep. Benevolence and respectability ! Of course, I'm with you. Well, the precise object ? Sir P. It is to remove a stain — a very great stain from the city ; to give an air of maiden beauty to a most venerable institution ; to exercise a renovating taste at a most inconsiderable outlay ; to call up, as it were, the snowy beauty of Greece in the coal-smoke atmosphere of London ; in a word, my lord — but as yet 'tis a profound secret — it is to paint St. Paul's ! To give it a virgin outside...
Sida 13 - And then the fittings-up will be so respectable. A delightful billiardtable in the ward-room ; with, for the humbler classes, skittles on the orlop-deck. Swings and archery for the ladies, trap-ball and cricket for the children, whilst the marine sportsman will find the stock of gulls unlimited. Weippert's quadrille band is engaged, and Smoke. For the convenience of lovers, the ship will carry a parson. Chat. And the object ? Smoke. Pleasure and education. At every new country we shall drop anchor...
Sida 12 - And not respectable. Smoke. Pardon me, my lord : it was coarse. But the fact is, humbug has received such high patronage, that now it's quite classic.
