40 ページ - A gathering mist o'erclouds her cheerful eyes; And from her cheeks the rosy colour flies. Then, turns to her, whom, of her female train, She trusted most, and thus she speaks with pain: Acca, 'tis past! He swims before my sight. Inexorable Death: and claims his right. Bear my last words to Turnus, fly with speed. And bid him timely to my charge succeed: Repel the Trojans, and the town relieve; Farewell ** Turnus did not die in so heroic a manner; though our poet seems to have had his eye upon Turnus's...
114 ページ - For lazy winter numbs the labouring hand. In genial winter, swains enjoy their store, Forget their hardships, and recruit for more. The farmer to full bowls invites his friends, And, what he got with pains, with pleasure spends. So sailors, when escaped from stormy seas, First crown their vessels, then indulge their ease.

114 ページ - Of heats and rains, and winds' impetuous rage, The sov'reign of the heav'ns has set on high The moon, to mark the changes of the sky ; When southern blasts should cease, and when the swain Should near their folds his feeding flocks restrain. For, ere the rising winds begin to roar, The working seas advance to wash the shore : Soft whispers run along the leafy woods ; And mountains whistle to the murm'ring floods.
114 ページ - And the wise ant her wintry store provides. Mark well the flowering almonds in the wood ; If odorous blooms the bearing branches load, The glebe will answer to the sylvan reign ; Great heats will follow, and large crops of grain.
173 ページ - In the first, he has only dead matter on which to work. In the second, he just steps on the world of life, and describes that degree of it which is to be found in vegetables. In the third, he advances to animals : and, in the last, he singles out the bee, which may be reckoned the most sagacious of them, for his subject.
12 ページ - O Pallas ! thou hast failed thy plighted word ! To fight with caution, not to tempt the sword, I warned thee, but in vain ; for well I knew What perils youthful ardour would pursue — That boiling blood would carry thee too far, Young as thou wert in dangers, raw to war ! O curst essay of arms ! disastrous doom ! Prelude of bloody fields, and fights to come...
