I deem'd such nooks the sweetest shade The sun in all its round survey'd ; And still I thought that shatter'd tower The mightiest work of human power...

Página 18 - E'er fram'd in dark Thessalian cave, Though his could drain the ocean dry And force the planets from the sky. These spells are spent, and, spent with these, The wine of life is on the lees; Genius, and taste, and talent gone, For ever tomb'd beneath the stone Where — taming thought to human pride!
