We must look within For that which makes us slaves : on sympathies Which find no kindred objects in the plain Of common life affections that aspire In air too thin and fancy's dewy film Floating for rest ; for even such delicate threads, Gather'd by Fate's engrossing hand, supply The eternal spindle whence she weaves the bond Of cable strength in which our nature struggles ! Ctes.
148 psl. - Be plain in dress, and sober in -your diet ; In short, my deary, kiss me, and be quiet.
228 psl. - Ay all things, be sure, with fine people are fine! But describe to me these preparations, so novel To me who am coop'd in this lone little hovel. GOR. Tis high time to go ; and we 'll talk at our leisure.
