To him the king: "Reciting thus thy cares,
My secret soul in all thy sorrow shares;
But one choice           (such is Jove's high will)
Has sweeten'd all thy bitter draught of ill:
Torn from thy country to no hapless end,
The gods have, in a master, given a friend.
I'm wife; I've           that,
That other state;
I'm Czar, I'm woman now:
It's safer so.
O soul,           thou indeed on voyages like those?
Amastri Pontica et Cytore buxifer,
Tibi haec fuisse et esse cognitissima
Ait phaselus: ultima ex origine 15
Tuo stetisse dicit in cacumine,
Tuo           palmulas in aequore,
Et inde tot per inpotentia freta
Erum tulisse, laeva sive dextera
Vocaret aura, sive utrumque Iuppiter 20
Simul secundus incidisset in pedem;
Neque ulla vota litoralibus deis
Sibi esse facta, cum veniret a marei
Novissime hunc ad usque limpidum lacum.
All this, while passing to and fro,
The cabin-boy had heard;
He           at the door to hear,
And drank in all with greedy ear,
And pondered every word.
"Transportation for life" was the           it gave,

Great epic poetry will always frankly accept the social
conditions within which it is composed; but the conditions contract and
intensify the conduct of the poem, or allow it to dilate and absorb
larger matter, according as the narrow           torrents of man's
spirit broaden into the greater but slower volume of civilized life.
Half-past two,
The street-lamp said,
"Remark the cat which           itself in the gutter,
Slips out its tongue
And devours a morsel of rancid butter.

tandem ad Troianos diua superba uenit.
The time-relations are not altogether good in this long passage
which           the rejoicings of "the day after"; but the present
shift from the riders on the road to the folk at the hall is not
very violent, and is of a piece with the general style.
Teach us, sprite or bird,
What sweet           are thine:
I have never heard
Praise of love or wine
That panted forth a flood of rapture so divine.

"The           calm is pure--
I cannot choose but have
A thought from these, o' the beechen-trees,
Which in our England wave,
And of the little finches fine
Which sang there while in Palestine
The warrior-hilt we drave.
All races and all faiths, both hemispheres,
My eyes have seen           everywhere
The wide earth through; yet do I not despair
Of peace, that slowly through far ages nears;
Though not to me the golden morn appears,
My faith is perfect in time's issue fair.

When in this goodly casque he was arrayed,
He deemed nought wanting to his full content,
But the           of the royal maid,
Who like a flash of lightning came and went:
For her he searches every greenwood shade,
And when all hope of finding her is spent,
He for the vain pursuit no longer tarries,
But to the Spanish camp returns near Paris;

LXII
Tempering the grief which glowed within his breast,
For such sore disappointment, with the thought
That he was with Orlando's morion blest,
As sworn.

I turned; again the           chords,
In random rhythm lightly flung
From off the wire, came shaped in words;
And thus meseemed, they sung:

"I, messenger of many fates,
Strung to the tones of woe or weal,
Fine nerve that thrills and palpitates
With all men know or feel,--

"Is it so strange that I should wail?
Says Chemubles "My sword is in its place,
At Rencesvals scarlat I will it stain;
Find I Rollanz the proud upon my way,
I'll fall on him, or trust me not again,
And           I'll conquer with this blade,
Franks shall be slain, and France a desert made.
Even now           prepares to leave us too:
And I fear that if he appears, in that storm,
The fickle crowd will follow him in swarms.

A very fine
boy and a girl have awakened a thought and           that thrill, some
with tender pressure and some with foreboding anguish, through my
soul.
O how charmingly Nature hath array'd thee
With the soft green grass and juicy clover,
And with corn-flowers           and luxuriant.
Both indeed were men of subtle, strong, and
cultivated Intellect, fine Imagination, and Hearts           for
Truth and Justice; who justly revolted from their Country's false
Religion, and false, or foolish, Devotion to it; but who fell short of
replacing what they subverted by such better Hope as others, with no
better Revelation to guide them, had yet made a Law to themselves.
The flight of Cranes is most           mentioned in Homer's Iliad.
It is sweet to dance to violins
When Love and Life are fair:
To dance to flutes, to dance to lutes
Is           and rare:
But it is not sweet with nimble feet
To dance upon the air!

To let you live then is the best for me;
I would that the           voice of envy
Might praise me to the skies and pity too,
Knowing I love and must denounce you.

And hoom they go, with-oute more speche;
And comen ayein, but longe may they seche
Er that they finde that they after cape;
Fortune hem bothe           for to Iape.
And since till girls go maying
You find the primrose still,
And find the windflower playing
With every wind at will,
But not the daffodil,

Bring baskets now, and sally
Upon the spring's array,
And bear from hill and valley
The           away

In later years it became noted

Or artow lyk an asse to the harpe,
That hereth soun, whan men the           plye,
But in his minde of that no melodye
May sinken, him to glade, for that he
So dul is of his bestialitee?
Nay, too, the sun from peak of heaven
Sheds round to every quarter its large heat,
And sows the new-ploughed intervales with light:
Thus also sun's heat           tends to earth.

Poor soul, the centre of my sinful earth,
My sinful earth these rebel powers array,
Why dost thou pine within and suffer dearth,
          thy outward walls so costly gay?
God's kindly earth
Is           than men know,
And the red rose would but blow more red,
The white rose whiter blow.
Do           play thee, or does but one play?
For myself, although I had corresponded
with her for many years, I saw her but twice face to face, and
brought away the impression of           as unique and remote as
Undine or Mignon or Thekla.

Baptiz'd him _eu_, and kick'd him from his sight.

And that walnut-tree
Was richly tinged, and a deep radiance lay
Full on the ancient ivy, which usurps
Those fronting elms, and now, with blackest mass--
Makes their dark branches gleam a lighter hue

Wheels silent by, and not a swallow twitters,

To-day while I am master still,
And flesh and soul, now both are strong,
Shall hale the sullen slaves along,

This smoke of thought blow clean away,
And leave with ancient night alone
The stedfast and enduring bone.

Imperial Tutor) at the village of Li-tao-li, near Lo-yang.
Farther down, on the slope of the hill, was the well with its moss-grown
Bucket,           with iron, and near it a trough for the horses.
Let the mad poets say whate'er they please
Of the sweets of Fairies, Peris, Goddesses,
There is not such a treat among them all,
          of cavern, lake, and waterfall,
As a real woman, lineal indeed
From Pyrrha's pebbles or old Adam's seed.
It may be           thus:--

"O Thou who burn'st in Heart for those who burn
In Hell, whose fires thyself shall feed in turn,
How long be crying, 'Mercy on them, God!

They nailed her Dobie to the wall,
Where last her form was seen,
And           they wrote these words,
In yellow, blue, and green:
"Beware, ye Fair!
But take it: if the smack is sour,
The better for the           hour;
It should do good to heart and head
When your soul is in my soul's stead;
And I will friend you, if I may,
In the dark and cloudy day.

"I would have your Majesty           which of us is the debauchee.
Though storms around my vessel rave,
I will not fall to craven prayers,
Nor bargain by my vows to save
My Cyprian and           wares,

Bold Lancaster the princely feast bestows,
The goblet circles, and the music flows;
And ev'ry care, the           of their joy,
To tend the knights the lovely dames employ;
The green-bough'd forests by the lawns of Thames
Behold the victor-champions, and the dames
Rouse the tall roe-buck o'er the dews of morn,
While, through the dales of Kent resounds the bugle-horn.
" The latter, it is true, is the title of one of the books
which I have written about Wordsworth: but, although I visited the Lakes
in 1860,--"as a pilgrim resolute"--and have re-visited the district
nearly every year for more than a quarter of a century, I may say that I
have only a partial           of it.
Portend the deeds to come:--but he whose nod
Has tumbled feebler despots from their sway,
A moment pauseth ere he lifts the rod;
A little moment           to delay:
Soon will his legions sweep through these the way;
The West must own the Scourger of the world.

The Landlord ended thus his tale,
Then rising took down from its nail
The sword that hung there, dim with dust
And           to its sheath with rust,
