Side 205 - Flowers of all hue, and without thorn the rose : Another side, umbrageous grots and caves Of cool recess, o'er which the mantling vine Lays forth her purple grape, and gently creeps Luxuriant; meanwhile murmuring waters fall Down the slope hills, dispersed, or in a lake, That to the fringed bank with myrtle crown'd Her crystal mirror holds, unite their streams.

Side 202 - Four acres was the' allotted space of ground, Fenced with a green enclosure all around : Tall thriving trees confess'd the fruitful mould ; The reddening apple ripens here to gold : Here the blue fig with luscious juice o'erflows, With deeper red the full pomegranate glows, The branch here bends beneath the weighty pear, And verdant olives flourish round the year.
Side 279 - Breaft is open laid, And while the Head's intent, the Heart's betray'd. Then, bafe Defire of Gain, then, Rage appears, Quarrels and Brawls arife, and anxious Fears ; Then, Clamours and Revilings reach the Sky, While lofing Gamefters all the Gods defie.
