Seite 88 - A stranger yet to pain! I feel the gales that from ye blow A momentary bliss bestow, As waving fresh their gladsome wing My weary soul they seem to soothe, And, redolent of joy and youth, To breathe a second spring.
Seite 293 - Still o'er these scenes my mem'ry wakes, And fondly broods with miser care! Time but the impression deeper makes, As streams their channels deeper wear.

Seite 152 - Be it a weakness, it deserves some praise, We love the play-place of our early days. The scene is touching, and the heart is stone That feels not at that sight, and feels at none.

Seite 70 - When first, a little one, I left my home, I can remember the first grief I felt, And the first painful smile that clothed my front With feelings not its own : sadly at night I sat me down beside a stranger's hearth, And, when the lingering hour of rest was come, First wet with tears my pillow.
