Their arms to the pale light Obscurely glimmering , on the lofty walls Pace slowly
the tired sentinels . But not With night comes silence , — for the voice of pain Is

Seite 516 - The shield of his mighty men is made red ; the valiant men are in scarlet : — the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.
Seite 328 - THE awful shadow of some unseen power Floats, though unseen, among us — visiting This various world with as inconstant wing As summer winds that creep from flower to flower ; Like moonbeams, that behind some piny mountain shower, It visits with inconstant glance Each human heart and countenance, Like hues and harmonies of evening, Like clouds in starlight widely spread, Like memory of music fled, Like aught that for its grace may be Dear, and yet dearer for its mystery.

Seite 590 - ... the reports of his medical attendant were far from establishing the existence of any thing like lunacy. Under this uncertainty, I deemed it right to communicate to my parents, that if I were to consider Lord Byron's past conduct as that of a person of sound mind, nothing could induce me to return to him.
