He of his prowess gave high proofs and' full, Who a tall pine uprooted at a pull. He many others, with as little let As fennel, wall-wort-stem, or dill uptore; And ilex, knotted oak, and fir upset, And beech and mountain ash, and elm-tree hoar.
461 ページ - ... swain, he will not stay Till the morn break, or till the dawn succeed, Whose twilight goes before approaching day.

243 ページ - With pleasing mien, grave walk, and decent vest, Fraud rolled her eyeballs humbly in her head ; And such benign and modest speech possest, She might a Gabriel seem who Ave said.
