Sida 8 - The birds of broadest wing their mansion form, The chough, the seamew, the loquacious crow, And scream aloft, and skim the deeps below. Depending vines the shelving cavern screen, With purple clusters blushing through the green. Four limpid fountains from the clefts distil...
Sida 122 - With many a weary step, and many a groan, Up the high hill he heaves a huge round stone ; The huge round stone, resulting with a bound, Thunders impetuous down, and smokes along the ground.

Sida 81 - I deem'd some godlike giant to behold, Or lofty hero, haughty, brave, and bold ; Not this weak pigmy-wretch, of mean design, Who, not by strength subdued me, but by wine. But come, accept our gifts, and join to pray...
Sida 104 - O, say, what angry power Elpenor led To glide in shades, and wander with the dead ? How could thy soul, by realms and seas disjoined, Outfly the nimble sail, and leave the lagging wind...
Sida 68 - They went and found a hospitable race; Not prone to ill, nor strange to foreign guest, They eat, they drink, and nature gives the feast; The trees around them, all their fruit produce; Lotos, the name; divine nectareous juice!
