Seite 110 - The tiny cell is forlorn, Void of the little living will That made it stir on the shore. Did he stand at the diamond door Of his house in a rainbow frill? Did he push, when he was uncurl'd, A golden foot or a fairy horn Thro...
Seite 179 - THE cock is crowing, The stream is flowing, The small birds twitter, The lake doth glitter, The green field sleeps in the sun ; The oldest and youngest Are at work with the strongest ; The cattle are grazing, Their heads never raising ; There are forty feeding like one ! Like an army defeated The Snow hath retreated, And now doth fare ill On the top of the bare hill...
Seite 170 - New-trimmed in Heaven, nor than his steadfast mood More steadfast, far from rashness as from fear ; Rigid, but with himself first, grasping still In swerveless poise the wave-beat helm of will ; Not honored then or now because he wooed The popular voice, but that he still withstood ; Broad-minded, higher-souled, there is but one Who was all this and ours, and all men's, — WASHINGTON.
