The gay will laugh When thou art gone, the solemn brood of care Plod on, and each one as before will chase His favorite phantom ; yet all these shall leave Their mirth and their employments, and shall come And make their bed with thee.
Seite 169 - To stroke his azure neck, or to receive The lambent homage of his arrowy tongue. All creatures worship man, and all mankind One Lord, one Father.

Seite 110 - ... comes basely; from slow, slowly ; from able., ably. There are so many other ways of deriving words from one another, that it would be extremely difficult, and nearly impossible, to enumerate them.
