Those simple words Can bid the sweetest dreams arise, Awaken feeling's tenderest chords, And fill with tears of joy my eyes. What is there my wild heart can prize That doth not in thy sphere abide, Haunt of my home-bred sympathies, My own — my own fireside...
408 페이지 - THE EXCHANGE. WE pledged our hearts, my love and I, — I in my arms the maiden clasping ; I could not tell the reason why, But, oh ! I trembled like an aspen.

THE TRUMPET.
77 페이지 - Hath never made its hated lair By thee — my own Fireside ! Thy precincts are a charmed ring, Where no harsh feeling dares intrude ; Where life's vexations lose their sting ; Where even grief is half subdued : And Peace, the halcyon, loves to brood. Then, let the pampered fool deride...
38 페이지 - Oh, human love ! whose yearning heart Through all things vainly true, So stamps upon thy mortal part, Its passionate adieu ! Surely thou hast another lot, There is some home for thee, Where thou shall rest, remembering not The moaning of the sea ! * This circumstance is related of Mrs.
36 페이지 - Had vailed her topsails to the sand, And bowed her noble mast. The queenly ship! — brave hearts had striven, And true ones died with her — We saw her mighty cable riven, Like floating gossamer. We saw her proud flag struck that morn, A star once o'er the seas— Her...
36 페이지 - We saw her proud flag struck that morn — A star once o'er the seas, — Her anchor gone, her deck uptorn, And sadder things than these...
260 페이지 - We are a ruined nation,— a nation on the very verge of bankruptcy, and its attendants, anarchy and confusion; and, instead of things growing better, to every reflecting person it is as plain as that two and two make four, that they will yet be many degrees worse.
