Side 369 - So much the rather thou, celestial Light, Shine inward, and the mind through all her powers Irradiate ; there plant eyes, all mist from thence Purge and disperse, that I may sec and tell Of things invisible to mortal sight. Now had the Almighty Father from above, From the pure empyrean where he sits
Side 478 - he laves, And hears the unexpressive nuptial song, In the blest kingdoms meek of joy and love. There entertain him all the saints above, In solemn troops, and sweet societies, That sing, and, singing in their glory, move, And wipe the tears for ever from his eyes. Now, Lycidas, the shepherds weep no more
Side 477 - For Lycidas is dead, dead ere his prime, Young Lycidas, and hath not left his peer : "Who would not sing for Lycidas ? he knew 10 Himself to sing, and build the lofty rhyme. He must not float upon his watery bier Unwept, and welter to the parching wind, Without the meed of some melodious tear.
Side 358 - or Trebisond, Or whom Biserta sent from Afric shore, When Charlemain with all his peerage fell By Fontarabbia. Thus far these beyond Compare of mortal prowess, yet observ'd Their dread commander : he, above the rest In shape and gesture proudly eminent, Stood like a tower ; his form had yet not lost All her original brightness ; nor

Nine times the space that measures day and night To mortal men, he with his horrid

Side 355 - How overcome this dire calamity ; What reinforcement we may gain from hope ; If not, what resolution from despair." Thus Satan. talking to his nearest mate, With head up-lift above the wave, and eyes That sparkling blaz'd ; his other parts besides Prone on the flood, extended long and large, Lay floating many a rood ; in
