About them frisking played All beasts of the earth, since wild, and of all chase In wood or wilderness, forest or den...
Side 260 - ABOU BEN ADHEM (may his tribe increase!) Awoke one night from a deep dream of peace, And saw within the moonlight in his room, Making it rich and like a lily in bloom, An angel writing in a book of gold : Exceeding peace had made Ben Adhem bold, And to the presence in the room he said, "What writest thou...
