My life is a fault at last, I fear: It seems too much like a fate, indeed! Though I do my best I shall scarce succeed.
Seite 129 - Morn in the white wake of the morning star Came furrowing all the orient into gold. We rose, and each by other drest with care Descended to the court that lay three parts In shadow, but the Muses' heads were touch'd Above the darkness from their native East.
Seite 303 - But the trees all kept their counsel, And never a word said they, Only there sighed from the pine-tops A music of sea far away.
Seite 74 - Mr. Bainbridge made no immediate reply. He leaned back in his chair, put the tips of his fingers together with methodical precision, and took an exhaustive survey of Wriothesley, who bore the studied inspection with the utmost indifference.
