Pagina 20 - The oracles are dumb, No voice or hideous hum Runs through the arched roof in words deceiving. Apollo from his shrine Can no more divine With hollow shriek the steep of Delphos leaving. No nightly trance, or breathed spell, Inspires the pale-eyed priest from the prophetic cell.
Pagina 77 - It is evident the mind knows not things immediately, but only by the intervention of the ideas it has of them. Our knowledge, therefore, is real only so far as there is a conformity between our ideas and the reality of things.
Pagina 9 - In yonder grave a druid lies, Where slowly winds the stealing wave ; The year's best sweets shall duteous rise ^ To deck its poet's sylvan grave. In yon deep bed of whispering reeds His airy harp shall now be laid, That he, whose heart in sorrow bleeds, May love through life the soothing shade.
Pagina 144 - Desire not that, my father ! Thou must live. For some are born to do great deeds, and live, As some are born to be obscured, and die. Do thou the deeds I die too young to do, And reap a second glory in thine age ; Thou art my father, and thy gain is mine. But come ! thou seest this great host of men Which follow me ; I pray thee, slay not these ! Let me entreat for them ; what have they done ? They follow'd me, my hope, my fame, my star.

Pagina 56 - Cette grande roideur des vertus des vieux âges Heurte trop notre siècle et les communs usages...
Pagina 66 - Sie hören nicht die folgenden Gesänge, Die Seelen, denen ich die ersten sang; Zerstoben ist das freundliche Gedränge, Verklungen ach ! der erste Widerklang.
Pagina 230 - Sate simply chatting in a rustic row ; Full little thought they than That the mighty Pan Was kindly come to live with them below : 90 Perhaps their loves, or else their sheep, Was all that did their silly thoughts so busy keep.
