Pagina 249 - Sirens' harmony, That sit upon the nine infolded spheres, And sing to those that hold the vital shears, And turn the adamantine spindle round On which the fate of gods and men is wound.
Pagina 277 - Than reason above beasts before ; Virtue was thy life's centre, and from thence Did silently and constantly dispense The gentle vigorous influence To all the wide and fair circumference...
Pagina 284 - Lets in new light through chinks that Time has made: Stronger by weakness, wiser men become As they draw near to their eternal home. Leaving the old, both worlds at once they view That stand upon the threshold of the new.
