Tanto è amara , che poco è più morte ; Ma per trattar del ben, ch' i' vi trovai, Dirò dell' altre cose ch' io v' ho scorte. l' non so ben ridir com' io v' entrai ; Tant' era pien di sonno in su quel punto, Che la verace via abbandonai.
Página 107 - PANSIES, lilies, kingcups, daisies, Let them live upon their praises ; Long as there's a sun that sets, Primroses will have their glory ; Long as there are violets, They will have a place in story : There's a flower that shall be mine, 'Tis the little Celandine.
Página 99 - Yet half a beast is the great god Pan, To laugh as he sits by the river, Making a poet out of a man : The true gods sigh for the cost and pain, — For the reed which grows nevermore again As a reed with the reeds in the river.
