Laesus Maritus. Εἰ δ ̓ ἦν θεοῖς ἀρεστὸν ἐμβαλεῖν ἐμοὶ ἀλλ ̓ οὐκ ἄτλητον οὐδέ μοι τόδ ̓ ἐστίν· οὔ. E. M. C. Ad Miram. Non caeli tuus instar est ocellus; Κ. Visions of the Future. I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see, Saw the vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be; Saw the heavens fill with commerce, argosies of magic sails, Pilots of the purple twilight, dropping down with costly bales; Heard the heavens fill with shouting, and there rained a ghastly dew From the nations' airy navies, grappling in the central blue; Far along the world-wide whisper of the south wind rushing warm, With the standards of the peoples plunging through the thunder-storm; Till the war-drum throbbed no longer, and the battleflags were furled In the parliament of man, the federation of the world. Empfänglichkeit. In die kalte, herbe Luft Wärme dich in Gottes Sonne. TENNYSON. W. MUELLER. Quid sit Futurum.

A. J. M. Calor divinus. Aere sub gelido nullos rosa fundit odores; Gratitude. What is grandeur, what is power? What the bright reward we gain? GRAY. Melody. Come, rest in this bosom, my own stricken deer; Though the herd have fled from thee, thy home is still here; Here still is the smile that no cloud can o'ercast, And the heart and the hand all thy own to the last. Oh, what was love made for, if 'tis not the same Through joy and through torments, through glory and shame? I know not, I ask not, if guilt's in that heart- Thou hast call'd me thy angel in moments of bliss, MOORE. Grata Posteritas. Qvid dominantum decus est tantum, Ver post rores spirat odores, Fidium vis est: suavius his est Bene dicentis vox pia mentis. K. Fides. Laesus in hoc fessusqve sinu pete, dama, qvietem ; Ah qvid amor prodesse valet, ni semper eundem Gaudia et aerumnae, fama pudorqve, vident? Nec scio, nec qvaero, culpamne in pectore celes; Hoc scio, carus eris tu mihi, qvidqvid eris. Ut me dixisti media inter gaudia divam, Per flammas tua pone seqvi vestigia, teqve K. |
