Sayfa 244 - I held my tongue, and spake nothing : I kept silence, yea, even from good words; but it was pain and grief to me.
Sayfa 89 - The world — the clustering spheres He made, The glorious light, the soothing shade, Dale, champaign, grove, and hill; The multitudinous abyss, Where Secrecy remains in bliss, And Wisdom hides her skill.
Sayfa 51 - Pomegranates, and I take the opportunity of explaining, in reply to inquiries, that I only meant by that title to indicate an endeavor towards something like an alternation, or mixture, of music with discoursing, sound with sense, poetry with thought ; which looks too ambitious, thus expressed, so the symbol was preferred.
Sayfa 95 - The cheerful holly, pensive yew, And holy thorn, their trim renew; The squirrel hoards his nuts: All creatures batten o'er their stores, And careful nature all her doors For Adoration shuts.
Sayfa 74 - MANUSCRIPT was communicated to me during my travels in Italy, which was copied from the archives of the Cenci Palace at Rome, and contains a detailed account of the horrors which ended in the extinction of one of the noblest and richest families of that city during the Pontificate of Clement VIII, in the year i599.
Sayfa 420 - Mrs. Browning's death is rather a relief to me, I must say : no more Aurora Leighs, thank God ! A woman of real genius, I know ; but what is the upshot of it all !

Except in such things as little novels, they only devote themselves to what men do much better, leaving that which men do worse or not at all.
Sayfa 89 - His muse, bright angel of his verse. Gives balm for all the thorns that pierce, For all the pangs that rage; Blest light, still gaining on the gloom, The more than Michal of his bloom, The Abishag of his age.
Sayfa 434 - He was made a Companion of the Order of St. Michael and St. George in 1882, and two years later was knighted'.
Sayfa 59 - I know no other piece of modern English, prose or poetry, in which there is so much told, as in these lines, of the Renaissance spirit,— its worldliness, inconsistency, pride, hypocrisy, ignorance of itself, love of art, of luxury, and of good Latin.
Sayfa 279 - PARLEYINGS WITH CERTAIN PEOPLE OF IMPORTANCE IN THEIR DAY: TO WIT : BERNARD DE MANDEVILLE, DANIEL BARTOLI, CHRISTOPHER SMART, GEORGE BUBB DODINGTON. FRANCIS FURINI, GERARD DE LAIRESSE, AND CHARLES AVISON. INTRODUCED BY A DIALOGUE BETWEEN APOLLO AND THE FATES; CONCLUDED BY ANOTHER BETWEEN JOHN FUST AND HIS FRIENDS.
