Página 59 - O'er each fair sleeping brow, She had each folded flower in sight— Where are those dreamers now? One midst the forests of the West, By a dark stream, is laid ; The Indian knows his place of rest Far in the cedar shade.
Página 42 - For, e'en though vanquished, he could argue still, While words of learned length and thundering sound Amazed the gazing rustics ranged around; And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew That one small head could carry all he knew.
Página 222 - If man's convenience, health, Or safety, interfere, his rights and claims Are paramount, and must extinguish theirs.

Ye, therefore, who love mercy, teach your sons To love it too.
