Sida 115 - the blue midnight, and the stars Shone through the rents of ruin; from afar The watchdog bayed beyond the Tiber; and More near from out the Caesars' palace came The owl's long cry, and, interruptedly, Of distant sentinels the fitful song Begun and died upon the gentle wind. Some cypresses beyond the
Sida 116 - roots with the imperial hearths, Ivy usurps the laurel's place of growth; — But the gladiators' bloody Circus stands, A noble wreck in ruinous perfection! While Caesar's chambers, and the Augustan halls, Grovel on earth in indistinct decay. — And thou didst shine, them rolling moon, upon All this, and cast a wide and tender light, Which

Sida 20 - like me to want a mate, But was not half so desolate, And it was come to love me when None lived to love me so again, And cheering from my dungeon's brink, Had brought me back to feel and think. I know not if it late were free, Or broke its cage to perch on mine, 280
Sida 14 - And I have felt the winter's spray Wash through the bars when winds were high iao And wanton in the happy sky; And then the very rock hath rock'd, And I have felt it shake, unshock'd, Because I could have smiled lo see The death that would have
Sida 43 - came o'er the spirit of my dream. — The Wanderer was return'd. — I saw him stand Before an Altar — with a gentle bride; Her face was fair, but was not that which made The Starlight of his Boyhood; — as he stood Even at the altar, o'er his brow there came The selfsame aspect, and the quivering shock
Sida 109 - came Things in my path which are no more. ABBOT. * Alas! I "gin to fear that thou art past all aid From me and from my calling; yet so young, I still would — MAN. Look on me! there is an order Of mortals on the earth, who do become Old in their youth, and
