Página 4 - And there's another country, I've heard of long ago — Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know.

Página 27 - Elements; and hath constituted me Emperour of the World. I am in the Fire of Choler, and am not burn'd; in the Water of Phlegm, and am not drown'd; in the Airy Sanguine, and yet not blown away with every blast of transient Pleasure, or vain Doctrines of Men; I descend also into the sad Earthly Melancholy, and yet am not buried from...
Página 27 - Oh ! dreadful is the check — intense the agony — When the ear begins to hear, and the eye begins to see ; When the pulse begins to throb, the brain to think again ; The soul to feel the flesh, and the flesh to feel the chain.
Página 27 - Terra, an Inhabitant of Paradise and Heaven upon Earth I sport with the Beasts of the Earth ; the Lion licks my Hand like a Spaniel ; and the Serpent sleeps upon my Lap, and stings me not. I play with the Fowls of Heaven ; and the Birds of the Air sit singing on my Fist.
