Seite 122 - STRANGE fits of passion I have known, And I will dare to tell, But in the lover's ear alone, What once to me befel. When she I lov'd was strong and gay And like a rose in June, I to her cottage bent my way, Beneath the evening moon.
Seite 121 - The outward shows of sky and earth, Of hill and valley, he has viewed; And impulses of deeper birth Have come to him in solitude. In common things that round us lie, Some random truths he can impart : The harvest of a quiet eye That broods and sleeps on his own heart.
Seite 239 - The disappearance of some stars may be the destruction of that system at the time appointed by the Deity for the probation of its inhabitants, and the appearance of new stars may be the formation of new systems for new races of beings then called into existence to adore the works of their Creator."* The late Dr.

They were then sacrificing the hearts of ten of our companions to their idols.
Seite 118 - SEVEN, the perplexity and obscurity which in childhood attend our notion of death, or rather our utter inability to admit that notion...
Seite 328 - Tout homme âgé de vingt et un ans est tenu de déclarer dans le temple quels sont ses amis. Cette déclaration doit être renouvelée, tous les ans, pendant le mois de ventôse.
Seite 148 - We then set forward on the road to Mexico, which was crowded with multitudes of the natives, and arrived at the causeway of Iztapalapa, which leads to that capital. When we beheld the number of populous towns on the water and firm ground, and that broad causeway, running straight and level to the city, we could compare it to nothing but the enchanted scenes we had read of in Amadis of Gaul...
