The stars are quenched In darkness, and the pure and spangling snow Gleams faintly through the gloom that gathers round.

Seite 225 - A little spring had lost its way amid the grass and fern, A passing stranger scooped a well, where weary men might turn ; He walled it in, and hung with care a ladle at the brink; He thought not of the deed he did, but judged that toil might drink.
Seite 210 - THE trembling dewdrops fall Upon the shutting flowers ; like souls at rest, The stars shine gloriously ; and all, Save me, are blest. Mother, I love thy grave ! The violet, with its blossoms blue and mild, Waves o'er thy head : when shall it wave Above thy child ? 'Tis a sweet flower, yet must Its bright leaves to the coming tempest bow : Dear mother, 'tis thine emblem ; dust Is on thy brow. And I could love to die — To leave untasted...
Seite 95 - it will be remembered that the American department was the poorest and least interesting of all foreign countries. Of late, it has justly assumed a position of the first importance, as having brought to the aid of our distressed agriculturists, a machine, which if it realizes the anticipations of competent judges, will amply remunerate England for all her outlay connected with the Great exhibition.
