Seite 189 - How dear to me the hour when daylight dies, And sun-beams melt along the silent sea, For then sweet dreams of other days arise, And memory breathes her vesper sigh to thee.

"Since from an ancient race descended You boast an unattainted blood, By yours be their fair fame attended, And claim by birth-right to be good. «' In love for ev'ry fellow creature Superior rise above the crowd, What most ennobles human nature Was ne'er the portion of the proud. " Be thine the gen'rous heart that borrows From others' joys a friendly glow, And for each hapless neighbour's sorrows Throbs with a sympathetic woe.
Seite 162 - Pride, of all others the most dangerous fault, Proceeds from want of sense, or want of thought; The men who labour and digest things most Will be much apter to despond than boast; For if your author be profoundly good, Twill cost you dear before he 's understood.
