Si numina vestra Incolumem Pallanta mihi, si fata reservant, Si visurus eum vivo, et venturus in unum; Vitam oro: patiar quemvis durare laborem. Sin aliquem infandum casum, Fortuna, minaris; Nunc, o nunc, liceat crudelem abrumpere vitam...
Page 48 - neath a curtain of translucent dew, Bathed in the rays of the great setting flame, Hesperus with the host of heaven came, And lo! Creation widened in man's view.
Page 468 - TRAVELS OF AN IRISH GENTLEMAN, IN SEARCH OF A RELIGION. With Notes and Illustrations. By the Editor of Captain Rock's Memoirs.
