Sida 173 - I HAD a dream, which was not all a dream. The bright sun was extinguished, and the stars Did wander darkling in the eternal space, Rayless, and pathless, and the icy earth Swung blind and blackening in the moonless air...

Sida 172 - All heaven and earth are still — though not in sleep, But breathless, as we grow when feeling most ; And silent, as we stand in thoughts too deep...
Sida 376 - ... consideration, I put down under the different heads short hints of the different motives that at different times occur to me for or against the measure. When I have thus got them all together in one view, I...

Sida 174 - The birds, and beasts, and famished men at bay, Till hunger clung them, or the dropping dead Lured their lank jaws ; himself sought out no food, But, with a piteous and perpetual moan And a quick desolate cry, licking the hand, Which answered not with a caress — he died.
Sida 381 - Divinity; though it is a question I do not dogmatize upon, having never studied it, and think it needless to busy myself with it now, when I expect soon an opportunity of knowing the truth with less trouble.
