163 페이지 - Babel's men of age Are wise and deep in lore ; But now they were not sage, They saw — but knew no more. A captive in the land, A stranger and a youth, He heard the king's command, He saw that writing's truth. The lamps around were bright, The prophecy in view ; He read it on that night, — The morrow proved it true. ' Belshazzar's grave is made, His kingdom passed away, He, in the balance weigh'd, Is light and worthless clay. The shroud his robe of state, His canopy the stone ; The Mede is at...
162 페이지 - In that same hour and hall, The fingers of a hand Came forth against the wall, And wrote as if on sand : The fingers of a man ; — A solitary hand Along the letters ran, And traced them like a wand.

Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem ; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein.
97 페이지 - So soft her tread, no nautilus that skims With sail more silent than her liquid limbs. Her hair so golden that, did slanting eve With a stray curl its sunlight interweave, Smit with surprise, you gazed, but could not guess Which the warm sunbeam, which the warmer tress. Her presence was low music ; when she went, She left behind a dreamy discontent, As sad as silence when a song is spent.
89 페이지 - The new century is so young that we expect a historical romance of the dark and bloody ground ; instead we have a simple tale of the days just before the war, with people so quaint and delightful that they might have lived in Cranford instead of Kentucky.
89 페이지 - There is not a page in Mr. WISTER'S new book which is not interesting. This is its first great merit, that it arouses the sympathy of the reader and holds him absorbed and amused to the end. It does a great deal more for him. . . . Whoever reads the first page will find it next to impossible to put the book down until he has read every one of the five hundred and four in the book, and then he will wish there were more of them.
25 페이지 - I almost think there are as many classes as men, and certainly there are as many classes as counties. Passing from Kent to Sussex is like passing from one society to another. Kent is softer, — I do not mean in climate, but in aspect, — more refined, more careful of itself, a little more self-conscious ; in a word, more civilised. Sussex once had its iron-works, as its hammer-ponds to this day testify ; but these have disappeared, and Sussex seems well pleased to have got rid of them. There is...

89 페이지 - A romance of much delicacy, variety, strength, and grace, in which are revealed the history of four lovers who by their purely human attributes are distinct types.
