42 ページ - In many ways does the full heart reveal The presence of the love it would conceal ; But in far more the estranged heart lets know The absence of the love, which yet it fain would show.
61 ページ - Congreve's wit. What is this talk? replies a friend, And where will this dry moral end? The truth of what you here lay down By some example should be shown. — With all my heart, — for once; read on. An honest, but a simple pair (And twenty other I forbear) May serve to make this thesis clear.
