Pagina 47 - Enough has Heaven indulg'd of joy below, To tempt our tarriance in this lov'd retreat: Enough has Heaven ordain'd of useful woe, T]o make us languish for a happier seat.
Pagina 340 - And still new beauties meet his lonely walk, And loves unfelt attract him. Not a breeze Flies o'er the meadow, not a cloud imbibes The setting sun's effulgence, not a strain From all the tenants of the warbling shade Ascends, but whence his bosom can partake Fresh pleasure, unreproved.
Pagina 30 - For them ev'n vernal nature looks more gay, For them more lively hues the fields adorn; To them more fair the fairest smile of day, To them more sweet the sweetest breath of morn. They feel the bliss that hope and faith supply; They pass serene th...

Pagina 26 - The fmile of beauty, and the voice of fong ; If gloomy thought the human mind o'erpow'r, Ev'n vernal hours glide unenjoy'd along.
Pagina 109 - SECOND: When thy light land on scorching gravel lies, And to the springing blade support denies; Fix on the wintry tilth the frequent fold, And mend with cooling marl or untried mould. THIRD: If thy strong loam superfluous wet retain, Lead through thy fields the subterraneous drain, And o'er the surface mellowing stores expand Of fiery lime or incoherent sand.
Pagina 140 - Money in this current came but by drops ; it could not quench the thirst of those who waited in India to receive it. An expedient, such as it was, remained to quicken its pace.
