Halaman 399 - I declined it, from an apprehension that my spirits would sink. We bade adieu to each other affectionately in the carriage. When he had got down upon the foot-pavement, he called out, " Fare you well ; " and, without looking back, sprung away with a kind of pathetic briskness, if I may use that expression, which seemed to indicate a struggle to conceal uneasiness, and impressed me with a foreboding of our long, long separation.
Halaman 171 - JUST for a handful of silver he left us, Just for a riband to stick in his coat — Found the one gift of which fortune bereft us, Lost all the others she lets us devote ; They, with the gold to give, doled him out silver, So much was theirs who so little allowed : How all our copper had gone for his service ! Rags — were they purple, his heart had been proud...
Halaman 356 - ... siècle qui y sont couchées ; je n'étais à l'aise que dans la compagnie des morts, près de ces chevaliers, de ces nobles dames, dormant d'un sommeil calme, avec leur levrette à leurs pieds et un grand flambeau de pierre à la main. Les environs de la ville présentaient le même caractère religieux et idéal.
Halaman 758 - All the world over, I wonder, in lands that I never have trod, Are the people eternally seeking for the signs and steps of a God? Westward across the ocean, and Northward ayont the snow, Do they all stand gazing, as ever, and what do the wisest know? Here, in this mystical India, the deities hover and swarm...
Halaman 391 - Mr. Boswell's book I was going to recommend to you, when I received your letter : it has pleased and moved me strangely, all (I mean) that relates to Paoli. He is a man born two thousand years after his time ! The pamphlet proves what I have always maintained, that any fool may write a most valuable book by chance, if he will only tell us what he heard and saw with veracity.
Halaman 758 - Is there nought in the heaven above, whence the hail and the levin are hurled, But the wind that is swept around us by the rush of the rolling world? The wind that shall scatter my ashes, and bear me to silence and sleep With the dirge, and the sounds of lamenting, and voices of women who weep.
Halaman 399 - I am absolutely certain that my mode of biography, which gives not only a History of Johnson's visible progress through the world, and of his publications, but a view of his mind in his letters and conversations, is the most perfect that can be conceived, and will be more of a Life than any work that has ever yet appeared.
Halaman 277 - York Saint Mary's School Mount Saint Gabriel PEEKSKILL-ON-THE-HUDSON, NY Boarding School for Girls Under the charge of the Sisters of St. Mary. New fireproof building beautifully situated. For catalogues address The Sister Superior.
Halaman 758 - Free love — free field — we love but while we may : The woods are hush'd, their music is no more : The leaf is dead, the yearning past away : New leaf, new life — the days of frost are o'er : New life, new love, to suit the newer day : New loves are sweet as those that went before : Free love — free field — wo love but while we may.
