Halaman 38 - Some feelings are to mortals given, With less of earth in them than heaven ; And if there be a human tear From passion's dross refined and clear, A tear so limpid and so meek, It would not stain an angel's cheek, 'Tis that which pious fathers shed Upon a duteous daughter's head...
Halaman 60 - For the prevention of crimes and injuries the laws to be adopted or made shall have force in all parts of the district and for the execution of process criminal and civil, the governor shall make proper divisions thereof, and he shall proceed from time to time as circumstances may require to lay out the parts of the District in which the indian titles shall have been extinguished into counties and townships...
Halaman 33 - Can storied urn, or animated bust, Back to its mansion call the fleeting breath ? Can honor's voice provoke the silent dust, Or flattery soothe the dull cold ear of death...
Halaman 389 - ... art lying, Will tears the cold turf steep. When hearts, whose truth was proven, Like thine, are laid in earth, There should a wreath be woven To tell the world their worth. And I, who woke each morrow To clasp thy hand in mine, Who shared thy joy and sorrow, Whose weal and woe were thine: It should be mine to braid it Around thy faded brow, But I've in vain essayed it, And feel I cannot now.

Halaman 389 - Green be the turf above thee, Friend of my better days ! None knew thee but to love thee, Nor named thee but to praise.
Halaman 55 - How sleep the brave, who sink to rest By all their country's wishes blest ? When Spring, with dewy fingers cold, Returns to deck their hallowed mould, She there shall dress a sweeter sod Than Fancy's feet have ever trod.
Halaman 382 - On that best portion of a good man's life, — His little, nameless, unremembered acts Of kindness and of love.
Halaman 25 - I asked them very abruptly whether or not they thought they were speaking to savages, that I was certain they did from the tenor of their conversation. Did they suppose that we meant to strip the women and children or take the bread out of ther mouths? Or that we would condesend to make war on the women and children or the church?
Halaman 315 - I am aware that our ablest patriots are looking out on the deep, vexed with storms, with great forebodings and failings of heart, for fear of the things that are coming upon us ; and I perceive a spirit of impatience rising, and distrust in respect to the perpetuity of our republic ; and I am sure that these fears are well founded, and am glad that they exist. It is the star of hope in our dark...
Halaman 22 - Wabash among the Miami-Pinghichias, is as large as our best villages here, and needs a missionary even more. Disorders have always prevailed there: but have increased in the last three years. Some come here to be married or to perform their Easter duty. The majority cannot or will not. The guardian of the Church publishes the banns for three Sundays. He gives certificates to those who are willing to come here, whom I publish myself before marrying them. Those who are unwilling to come here, declare...
