Página 107 - An idle poet, here and there, Looks round him; but, for all the rest, The world, unfathomably fair, Is duller than a witling's jest. Love wakes men, once a lifetime each; They lift their heavy lids, and look; And, lo, what one sweet page can teach, They read with joy, then shut the book. And some give thanks, and some blaspheme, And most forget; but, either way, That and the Child's unheeded dream Is all the light of all their day.

Página 111 - WHAT rumour'd heavens are these Which not a poet sings, O, Unknown Eros ? What this breeze Of sudden wings Speeding at far returns of time from interstellar space To fan my very face, And gone as fleet, Through delicatest ether feathering soft their solitary beat, With ne'er a light plume dropp'd, nor any trace To speak of whence they came, or whither they depart ? And why this palpitating heart, This blind and unrelated joy, This meaningless desire, That moves me...
Página 151 - If the language of theology were extracted from Hooker and the translation of the Bible ; the terms of natural knowledge from Bacon; the phrases of policy, war, and navigation from Raleigh; the dialect of poetry and fiction from Spenser and Sidney; and the diction of common life from Shakespeare, few ideas would be lost to mankind, for want of English words, in which they might be expressed.
Página 185 - Most of the arts and professions in a state,' says by far the most illustrious philosopher and historian of the present age, ' are of such a ' nature that, while they promote the interests of the society, they are ' also useful or agreeable to some individuals ; and in that case, the ' constant rule of the magistrate, except, perhaps, on the first...
