This the divine Cecilia found, And to her Maker's praise confined the sound. When the full organ joins the tuneful quire, Th...

Half afraid, he first Against the window beats; then, brisk, alights On the warm hearth; then, hopping o'er the floor, Eyes all the smiling family askance, And pecks, and starts, and wonders where he is; Till more familiar grown, the table-crumbs Attract his slender feet.

And think not slightly of this advertisement, but retire yourself into your country, where you may expect the event in safety.

Others apart far in the grassy dale, Or rough' ning waste, their humble texture weave.
170. oldal - Has drunk the flood, and from his lively haunt The trout is banished by the sordid stream, Heavy and dripping, to the breezy brow Slow move the harmless race ; where, as they spread Their swelling treasures to the sunny ray, Inly disturbed, and wondering what this wild Outrageous tumult means, their loud complaints The country fill — and, tossed from rock to rock, Incessant bleatings run around the hills.
