Seite 15 - Be full, ye courts ! be great who will ; Search for Peace with all your skill : Open wide the lofty door, Seek her on the marble floor : In vain...
Seite 12 - The yellow beech, the sable yew, The slender fir that taper grows, The sturdy oak with broad-spread boughs.
Seite 180 - Europeans ; whom the circling cup Of luxury intoxicates. Ye routs, Who for your crimes have fled your native land; And ye voluptuous idle, who in vain Seek...
