Six days after was all in the dust...
Seite 268 - My dear Mistress has a heart Soft as those kind looks she gave me ; When, with love's resistless art, And her eyes, she did enslave me ; But her constancy's so weak, She's so wild and apt to wander, That my jealous heart would break Should we live one day asunder.
Seite 318 - Is this the region, this the soil, the clime,' Said then the lost Archangel, 'this the seat That we must change for Heaven, this mournful gloom For that celestial light? Be it so, since he Who now is...
Seite 60 - OLIVER'S gone to the Dogs, Oh ! No I do mistake, Hee's gone in a Wherry Over the Ferry, Is call'd the Stygian Lake. But Cerberus that Great Porter Did read him such a Lecture, That made him to roar When he came a-shoar For being Lord Protector.
