Seite 21 - Pearl upon our Coast. And in these Rocks for us did frame A Temple, where to sound his Name. Oh let our Voice his Praise exalt, Till it arrive at Heaven's Vault : Which thence (perhaps) rebounding may Echo beyond the Mexique Bay.
Seite 159 - Content I live, this is my stay; I seek no more than may suffice; I press to bear no haughty sway; Look, what I lack my mind supplies; Lo, thus I triumph like a king, Content with that my mind doth bring.
Seite 227 - Strange cozenage ! None would live past years again, Yet all hope pleasure in what yet remain ; And, from the dregs of life, think to receive, What the first sprightly running could not give. I'm tired with waiting for this chemic gold, Which fools us young, and beggars us when old.

Seite 111 - What, thou art one of those who esteem men only by the marks and value fortune has set. upon /em, and never consider intrinsic worth! but counterfeit honour will not be current with me : I weigh the man, not his title; 'tis not the king's stamp can make the metal better or heavier. Your lord is a leaden shilling, which you bend every way, and debases the stamp he bears, instead of being raised by it.
Seite 159 - Some have too much, yet still they crave, I little have, yet seek no more ; They are but poor, though much they have, And I am rich with little store. They poor, I rich ; they beg, I give ; They lack, I lend ; they pine, I live.
