Not from one lone cloud, But every mountain now hath found a tongue, And Jura answers, through her misty shroud, Back to the joyous Alps, who call to her aloud!
Seite 1042 - And this is in the night : — Most glorious night ! Thou wert not sent for slumber ! let me be A sharer in thy fierce and far delight, — A portion of the tempest and of thee...
Seite 1564 - I have been something of a traveler in our own country — though far less than I could wish — and in Europe have seen all that is most attractive, from the highlands of Scotland to the golden horn of Constantinople ; from the summit of the Hartz Mountains to the fountain of Vaucluse ; but my eye has yet to rest on a lovelier scene than that which smiles around you as you sail from Weir's Landing to Centre Harbor.
