Seite 271 - Nature never did betray The heart that loved her; 'tis her privilege Through all the years of this our life, to lead From, joy to joy: for she can so inform The mind that is within us, so impress With quietness and beauty, and so feed With lofty thoughts, that neither evil tongues, Rash judgments, nor the sneers of selfish men, Nor greetings where no kindness is, nor all The dreary intercourse of daily life, Shall e'er prevail against us, or disturb Our cheerful faith that all which we behold Is...
Seite 263 - Some drill and bore The solid earth, and from the strata there Extract a register, by which we learn That He who made it, and reveal'd its date To Moses, was mistaken in its age.
Seite 100 - These are thy glorious works, Parent of good, Almighty, thine this universal frame, Thus wondrous fair; thyself how wondrous then ! Unspeakable, who sitt'st above these heavens, To us invisible, or dimly seen In these thy lowest works; yet these declare Thy goodness beyond thought, and power divine.
Seite 26 - There is no philosophy in my religion. I am of a very small and despised sect of Christians, known, if known at all, as Sandemanians, and our hope is founded on the faith that is in Christ. But though the natural works of God can never by any possibility come in contradiction with the higher things that belong to our future existence, and must with everything concerning Him ever glorify Him, still I do not think it at all necessary to tie the study of the natural sciences and religion together, and,...
Seite 270 - The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
Seite 11 - Immediately beneath is the precipice and the lake, and the steep embankment, covered with thickets of Brake and Blackthorn, and thickly strewn with fallen piles, confusedly upheaped, of massive and angular rocks. From Boltby Moor southward to Hood hill, a pleasant undulated wooded tract extends, and beyond the broad central valley is spread out like a map from the Tees southward as far as York, with Thirsk and Ripon marked conspicuously, and the lines of railway easily traceable by the smoke of passing...
Seite 258 - Or like the invincible Rock itself that braves, Age after age, the hostile elements, As when it guarded holy Cuthbert's cell. All night the storm had raged, nor ceased, nor paused, When, as day broke, the Maid, through misty air, Espies far off a Wreck, amid the surf, Beating on one of those disastrous isles Half of a Vessel, half - no more; the rest Had...
Seite 301 - The pele, properly so called, is a massive and lofty building, as large as some Norman keeps. It has an enriched appearance given to it by its double-notched corbelling round the summit, which further serves the purpose of machicolation. The round bartizans at the angles add to its beauty, and are set on with considerable skill. The stone roof and the provisions for carrying off the water deserve careful examination. Over the low winding entrance-door on the basement are the remains of the original...
Seite 367 - Archives of Science and Transactions of the Orleans County Society of natural Sciences.
Seite 302 - Over the low winding entrance-door on the basement are the remains of the original portcullis, the like of which the most experienced archaeologist will in vain seek for elsewhere. The grooves are often visible, and the chamber where the machinery was fixed for raising it are also to be met with, even, as at Goodrich, where the holes in...
