Of vision search'd for him, as one would look
Athwart the sallows of a river nook
To catch a glance at silver throated eels,--

His rugged forehead in a mantle pale,
With an eye-guess towards some pleasant vale
Descry a

Beauty, knowledge, inure not to me--yet there are two or three things

Composed these songs.

Rests at his heart: the customed morning came,
And breathed new vigour in his shaken frame; 250
And solace sought he none from priest nor leech,
And soon the same in movement and in speech,
As heretofore he filled the passing hours,
Nor less he smiles, nor more his forehead lowers,
Than these were wont; and if the coming night
Appeared less welcome now to Lara's sight,

Whose shuddering proved _their_ fear was less forgot.

me,
Full of my burning; there's no more for me
Now, but to dwell alone in my still soul's
Hoarding of ecstasies, a great place of lusts
Achieved and shining fixt; for every man
Is mine, and every soil is mine, from here
Round to the furthest cliffs that steadfast are
To keep the hoofs of the sea from murdering
The tilled leagues of the land.

Lascelles Abercrombie - Emblems of Love |

Amidst this wreck, where thou hast made a shrine
And temple more
divinely
desolate,
Among thy mightier offerings here are mine,
Ruins of years--though few, yet full of fate:
If thou hast ever seen me too elate,
Hear me not; but if calmly I have borne
Good, and reserved my pride against the hate
Which shall not whelm me, let me not have worn
This iron in my soul in vain--shall THEY not mourn?

As ouphant faieries, whan the moone sheenes bryghte, 475
In littel circles daunce upon the greene,
All living creatures flie far from their syghte,
Ne by the race of destinie be seen;
For what he be that ouphant
faieries
stryke,
Their soules will wander to Kyng Offa's dyke.

Roar'd high--and

by the tempest driven,
In Tagus' breast a gallant navy sought
The shelt'ring port, and glad assistance brought.
