Стр. 23 - Draw the landscape bright and strong Grongar in whose mossy cells Sweetly musing Quiet dwells; Grongar in whose silent shade For the modest Muses made So oft I have, the evening still, At the fountain of a rill...
Стр. 24 - Phillis, queen of love Gaudy as the opening dawn Lies a long and level lawn On which a dark hill, steep and high, Holds and charms the wandering eye.
Стр. 26 - I lie; While the wanton Zephyr sings, And in the vale perfumes his wings; While the waters murmur deep; While the shepherd charms his sheep; While the birds unbounded fly, And with musick fill the sky, Now, ev'n now, my joys run high.
