Sayfa 179 - The darksome pines that o'er yon rocks reclin'd Wave high, and murmur to the hollow wind, The wand'ring streams that shine between the hills, The grots that echo to the tinkling rills, The dying gales that pant upon the trees, The lakes that quiver to the curling breeze; No more these scenes my meditation aid, Or lull to rest the visionary maid.
Sayfa 178 - So on he fares, and to the border comes Of Eden, where delicious Paradise, Now nearer, crowns with her enclosure green, As with a rural mound, the champaign head Of a steep wilderness...

Here, not a temple...

Sayfa 2 - Millions of spiritual creatures walk the earth Unseen, both when we wake, and when we sleep. All these with ceaseless praise his works behold Both day and night : how often from the steep Of echoing hill or thicket have we heard Celestial voices to the midnight air, Sole, or responsive each to other's note, Singing their great Creator ? oft in bands While they keep watch, or nightly rounding walk With heavenly touch of instrumental sounds In full harmonic number join'd, their songs Divide the night,...
Sayfa 414 - His vestments when he officiates in church as well as his mitre do not differ from those of other prelates . The tiara seems originally to have been an ordinary mitre, such as is still worn by the Greek Patriarchs. The three circlets, which have raised it into a triple crown , were added at different periods, and it is said, for different mystic reasons . The first or lowest seems to have been originally a mere border , gradually enriched with gold and diamonds . The second was the invention of Boniface...
Sayfa 130 - Who grac'd their age with new-invented arts: Those who to worth their bounty did extend, And those who knew that bounty to commend. The heads of these with holy fillets bound, And all their temples were with garlands crown'd.
Sayfa 247 - Charles, that is, the qualities which give true sterling value to the man, and sanctify him to the eyes of his Creator — I mean humility, self-command, temperance, industry, prudence and fortitude — were not inferior to his public endowments. His table was for his guests ; his own diet was confined to bread and vegetables ; he allowed himself no amusement or relaxation, alleging that the variety of his duties was in itself a sufficient recreation. His dress and establishment...
