A recluse by temperament and habit,
literally spending years without setting her foot beyond the
doorstep, and many more years during which her walks were strictly
limited to her father's grounds, she habitually concealed her mind,
like her person, from all but a very few friends; and it was with
great
difficulty
that she was persuaded to print, during her
lifetime, three or four poems.

Terrified with his heart & spirit at the visions of futurity

Pope - Essay on Man |

When Teucer fled before his father's frown
From Salamis, they say his temples deep
He dipp'd in wine, then wreath'd with poplar crown,
And bade his
comrades
lay their grief to sleep:
"Where Fortune bears us, than my sire more kind,
There let us go, my own, my gallant crew.

le pole insieme, al
cominciar
del giorno,
si movono a scaldar le fredde piume;
poi altre vanno via sanza ritorno,
altre rivolgon se onde son mosse,
e altre roteando fan soggiorno;

in quello sfavillar che 'nsieme venne,
si come in certo grado si percosse.
