Page 211 - I could a tale unfold, whose lightest word Would harrow up thy soul; freeze thy young blood ; Make thy two eyes, like stars, start from their spheres; Thy knotted and combined locks to part, And each particular hair to stand on end, Like quills upon the fretful porcupine : But this eternal blazon must not be To ears of flesh and blood : — List, list, O list!

Page 62 - Our dwelling is in the ALMIGHTY'S hand ; We come, and we go at his command. Though joy or sorrow may mark our track, His will is our guide, and we look not back ; And if, in our wrath, ye would turn us away, Or win us in gentlest airs to play, Then lift up your hearts to Him who binds Or frees, as he will, the obedient winds.
Page 37 - Every passion gives a particular cast to the countenance, and is apt to discover itself in some feature or other.

For my own part, I am so apt. to frame a notion of...
Page 94 - Hill of Time, From whence with grief we see that prime, And all its sweetness end. The die now cast, our station known, Fond expectation past; The thorns, which former days had sown, To crops of late repentance grown, Thro
