179 psl. - ... wave slow swelling to the shore Gleams on the green like silver ore ; The grove, the cloud, the mountain's brow, Are burning in the crimson glow ; Yet all is silence, till the gale Shakes its rich pinions from the vale. It is a lovely hour, though heaven Had ne'er to man his partner given, That thing of beauty, fatal, fair, Bright, fickle child of flame and air...
50 psl. - Forbear, my lord, to grieve, And know your Rosamond does live. If 'tis joy to wound a lover, How much more to give him ease ? When his passion we discover, Oh how pleasing 'tis to please ! The bliss returns, and we receive Transports greater than we give, KING.
21 psl. - With this scene ended our glimpse of daylight. Sir Walter never, I think, left his room afterwards, and hardly his bed, except for an hour or two in the middle of the day; and after another week he was unable even for this.
