Quotes

• “To fair Fidele's grassy tombSoft maids and village hinds shall bringEach opening sweet of earliest bloom,And rifle all the breathing spring.”
• “Each lonely scene shall thee restore;For thee the tear be duly shed;Beloved till life can charm no more,And mourn'd till Pity’s self be dead.”
• “Now air is hushed, save where the weak-eyed bat,With short shrill shriek flits by on leathern wing,Or where the beetle windsHis small but sullen horn,As oft he rises 'midst the twilight path,Against the pilgrim borne in heedless hum.”
• “For when thy folding-star arising showsHis paly circlet, at his warning lampThe fragrant hours, and elvesWho slept in buds the day,And many a nymph who wreathes her brows with sedgeAnd sheds the fresh'ning dew, and lovelier still,The pensive pleasures sweetPrepare thy shadowy car.”
• “With eyes up-raised, as one inspired,Pale Melancholy sate retired,And from her wild sequestered seat,In notes by distance made more sweet,Poured thro' the mellow horn her pensive soul.”
• “Love of peace, and lonely musing,In hollow murmurs died away.”
