206 페이지 - How fine has the day been, how bright was the sun, How lovely and joyful the course that he run, Though he rose in a mist when his race he begun, And there followed some droppings of rain!

186 페이지 - But, children, you should never let Such angry passions rise; Your little hands were never made To tear each other's eyes.
