... Never had shaken his nerves in fight ; But he better could brook to behold the dying , Deep in the tide of their warm blood lying , Scorch'd with the death - thirst , and writhing in vain , Than the perishing dead who are past all pain ...

... Never , oh never , we meet again ! Thou hast done a fearful deed In falling away from thy father's creed : But dash that turban to earth , and sign The sign of the cross , and for ever be mine ; Wring the black drop from thy heart , And ...

... never did clasp of one so dear Strike on the pulse with such feeling of fear , As those thin fingers , long and white , Froze through his blood by their touch that night . The feverish glow of his brow was gone , And his heart sank so ...

... never shalt see Not earth - that's past - but heaven or me . If this thou dost accord , albeit A heavy doom ' tis thine to meet , That doom shall half absolve thy sin , And mercy's gate may receive thee within : But pause one moment ...

... at hand : Their leader's nervous arm is bare , Swifter to smite , and never to spare- Unclothed to the shoulder it waves them on ; Thus in the fight is he ever known : Others a gaudier garb may show , To tempt the THE SIEGE OF CORINTH . 63.

Side 49 - To fetters, and the damp vault's dayless gloom— Their country conquers with their martyrdom, And Freedom's fame finds wings on every wind.
Side 23 - Fashion'd by long forgotten hands ; Two or three columns, and many a stone, Marble and granite, with grass o'ergrown ! Out upon Time ! it will leave no more Of the things to come than the things before ! Out upon Time ! who for ever will leave But enough of the past for the future to grieve...
Side 55 - And I have felt the winter's spray Wash through the bars when winds were high And wanton in the happy sky; And then the very rock hath rock'd, And I have felt it shake unshock'd, Because I could have smiled to see The death that would have set me free.
Side 53 - Twas still some solace, in the dearth Of the pure elements of earth, To hearken to each other's speech, And each turn comforter to each With some new hope or legend old, Or song heroically bold ; But even these at length grew cold.
Side 64 - It might be months, or years, or days, I kept no count, I took no note, I had no hope my eyes to raise, And clear them of their dreary mote...
Side 51 - PRISONER OF CHILLON. MY hair is gray, but not with years, Nor grew it white In a single night, As men's have grown from sudden fears: My limbs are bow'd, though not with toil, But rusted with a vile repose, For they have been a dungeon's spoil, And mine has been the fate of those To whom the goodly earth and air Are bann'd, and barr'd — forbidden fare...
Side 61 - For he would never thus have flown, And left me twice so doubly lone, — Lone — as the corse within its shroud, Lone — as a solitary cloud, A single cloud on a sunny day, While all the rest of heaven is clear, A frown upon the atmosphere, That hath no business to appear When skies are blue, and earth is gay.
Side 62 - Returning where my walk begun, Avoiding only, as I trod, My brothers' graves without a sod; For if I thought with heedless tread My step profaned their lowly bed, My breath came gaspingly and thick, And my crush'd heart fell blind and sick.
Side 75 - It is the hour when lovers' vows Seem sweet in every whisper'd word; And gentle winds, and waters near, Make music to the lonely ear. Each flower the dews have lightly wet, And in the sky the stars are met, And on the wave is deeper blue, And on the leaf a browner hue, And in the heaven that clear obscure, So softly dark, and darkly pure, Which follows the decline of day, As twilight melts beneath the moon away.(l) n.
Side 58 - Whose tints as gently sunk away As a departing rainbow's ray ; An eye of most transparent light, That almost made the dungeon bright, And not a word of murmur, not A groan o'er his untimely lot, — A little talk of better days, A little hope my own to raise.
