Seite 42 - This is the place, the centre of the grove ; Here stands the oak, the monarch of the wood. How sweet and solemn is this midnight scene The silver moon, unclouded, holds her way Through skies, where I could count each little star. The fanning west wind scarcely stirs the leaves ; The river, rushing o'er its pebbled bed, Imposes silence, with a stilly sound.

Seite 35 - I'll kneel, And call Lord Douglas to protect his blood. Nor. The blood of Douglas will protect itself. Lady R. But we shall need both friend and favour, boy, To wrest thy lands and lordship from the gripe Of Randolph and his kinsman. Yet I think My tale will move each gentle heart to pity, My life incline the virtuous to believe.
Seite 17 - On my sad heart, and kindled up a fondness For this young stranger wand'ring from his home, And like an orphan cast upon my care. I will protect thee, said I to myself, With all my power, and grace with all my favour.
Seite 22 - Alas ! I'm sore beset ! let never man, For sake of lucre, sin against his soul! Eternal Justice is in this most just ! I, guiltless now, must former guilt reveal.
Seite 25 - I did, one has no satisfaction with such apprehensions about one — if my lord should wake,or the Swish gentleman should see one, or madam Heidelberg should know of it, I should be frighted to death — besides I have had my tea already this morning I'm sure I hear my lord. [In a Fright.
Seite 49 - But then, serius aut citius, as we say, sooner or later, Mr Sterling, he is sure to put his business out of hand as he should do. - My clerk has brought the writings and all other instruments along with him, and the settlement is, I believe, as good a settlement as any settlement on the face of the earth!
