151:45,049[A ]| Which$6#1$ if it could be copied out, would be 151:45,050[A ]| A solid body of divinity. 151:45,051[A ]| Your principles and practice light would give 151:45,052[A ]| What we should do, and what we should believe: 151:45,053[A ]| For$3$ the extensive knowledge you possess, 151:45,054[A ]| You do acquire with more ease than confess; 151:45,055[A ]| And as by$4$ you knowledge hath thus obtained 151:45,056[A ]| To$9$ be refined, and then to$9$ be explained: 151:45,057[A ]| So$3$ in$4$ return she useful is to$4$ you, 151:45,058[A ]| In$4$ practice and in$4$ contemplation too; 151:45,059[A ]| For$3$ by$4$ the various succour she hath lent, 151:45,060[A ]| You act with judgement, and think with content. 151:45,061[A ]| Yet those vast arts with such a temper meet, 151:45,062[A ]| That$3$ you can lay them at religion's feet; 151:45,063[A ]| Nor is it half so$5#1$ bold as it is true, 151:45,064[A ]| That$3$ Virtue is herself obliged to$4$ you: 151:45,065[A ]| For$4$ being dressed by$4$ your subduing charms, 151:45,066[A ]| She conquers more than did the Roman arms. 151:45,067[A ]| We see in$4$ you how much that$6#2$ malice lied 151:45,068[A ]| That$6#1$ stuck on$4$ goodness any sullen pride; 151:45,069[A ]| And that$3$ the harshness some professors wear 151:45,070[A ]| Falls to$4$ their own, and not religion's share. 151:45,071[A ]| But your bright sweetness if it once appear, 151:45,072[A ]| Reclaims the bad, and softens the austere. 151:45,073[A ]| Men talked of honour too, but could not tell 151:45,074[A ]| What was the secret of that$6#2$ active spell. 151:45,075[A ]| That$6#2$ beauteous mantle they to$4$ divers lent, 151:45,076[A ]| Yet wondered what the mighty nothing meant. 151:45,077[A ]| Some did confine her to$4$ a worthy fame, 151:45,078[A ]| And some to$4$ royal patents gave her Name. 151:45,079[A ]| You having claim unto her either way, 151:45,080[A ]| By$4$ what a King could give, a world could pay, 151:45,081[A ]| Have a more living honour in$4$ your breast, 151:45,082[A ]| Which$6#1$ justifies, and yet obscures the rest; 151:45,083[A ]| A principle from fame and pomp untied, 151:45,084[A ]| So$5#1$ truly high that$3$ it despises pride; 151:45,085[A ]| Buying good actions at the dearest rate, 151:45,086[A ]| Looks down on$4$ ill with as much scorn as hate; 151:45,087[A ]| Acts things so$5#1$ generous and bravely hard, 151:45,088[A ]| And in$4$ obliging finds so$5#1$ much reward; 151:45,089[A ]| So$5#1$ self denying great, so$5#1$ firmly just, 151:45,090[A ]| Apt to$9$ confer, strict to$9$ preserve a trust; 151:45,091[A ]| That$3$ all whose honour would be justified, 151:45,092[A ]| Must by$4$ your standard have it stamped and tried. 151:45,093[A ]| But your perfection heightens others' crimes, 151:45,094[A ]| And you reproach while you inform the times. 151:45,095[A ]| Which$6#1$ sad advantage you will$1$ scarce believe; 151:45,096[A ]| Or if you must, you do conceal and grieve. 151:45,097[A ]| You scorn so$5#1$ poor a foil as others ill, 151:45,098[A ]| And are protector to$4$ the unhappy still; 151:45,099[A ]| Yet are so$5#1$ tender when you see a spot, 151:45,100[A ]| You blush for$4$ those who$6#1$ for$4$ themselves could not. 151:45,101[A ]| You are so$5#1$ much above your sex, that$3$ we 151:45,102[A ]| Believe your life your greatest courtesy: 151:45,103[A ]| For$3$ women boast they have, while you will$1$ live, 151:45,104[A ]| A pattern and a representative, 151:45,105[A ]| And future mothers who$6#1$ in$4$ childbirth groan, 151:45,106[A ]| Shall wish for$4$ daughters, knowing you are one. 151:45,107[A ]| The world hath Kings whose thrones are cemented 151:45,108[A ]| Or by$4$ that$6#2$ blood they boast, or that$6#2$ they shed: 151:45,109[A ]| Yet these great Idols of the stooping crew 151:45,110[A ]| Have neither pleasure sound, nor honour true. 151:45,111[A ]| They either fight, or play; and power court, 151:45,112[A ]| In$4$ trivial anger, or in$4$ cruel sport. 151:45,113[A ]| You, who$6#1$ a nobler privilege enjoy, 151:45,114[A ]| (For$3$ you can save whom they can but destroy) 151:45,115[A ]| An empire have where different mixtures kiss; 151:45,116[A ]| You are grave, not sour, and kind, but not remiss. 151:45,117[A ]| Such sweetened majestic, such humble state, 151:45,118[A ]| Do love and reverence at once create. 151:45,119[A ]| Pardon, dear Madam, these untaught essays, 151:45,120[A ]| I can admire more fitly than I praise. 151:45,121[A ]| Things so$5#1$ sublime are dimly understood, 151:45,122[A ]| And you were born so$5#1$ great, and are so$5#1$ good, 151:45,123[A ]| So$5#1$ much above the honour of your name, 151:45,124[A ]| And by$4$ neglect do so$5#1$ secure your fame; 151:45,125[A ]| Whose beauty is such as captivates the wise, 151:45,126[A ]| Yet only you, of all the world, despise; 151:45,127[A ]| That$6#1$ have so$5#1$ vast a knowledge so$5#1$ subdued, 151:45,128[A ]| Religion so$5#1$ adorned, and so$5#1$ pursued; 151:45,129[A ]| A wit so$5#1$ strong, that$3$ who$6#1$ would it define, 151:45,130[A ]| Will$1$ need ten times one more acute than mine; 151:45,131[A ]| Yet ruled so$3$ that$3$ its vigour managed thus 151:45,132[A ]| Becomes at once grateful and generous; 151:45,133[A ]| Whose honour hath so$5#1$ delicate a sense, 151:45,134[A ]| Who$6#1$ always pardon, never give offence; 151:45,135[A ]| Who$6#1$ needing nothing, yet to$4$ all are kind, 151:45,136[A ]| Who$6#1$ have so$5#1$ large a heart, so$5#1$ rich a mind; 151:45,137[A ]| Whose friendship still is on$4$ the obliging side, 151:45,138[A ]| And yet so$5#1$ free from tyranny and pride; 151:45,139[A ]| Who$6#1$ do in$4$ love (like$4$ Jonathan) descend, 151:45,140[A ]| And strip yourself to$4$ cloth your happy friend; 151:45,141[A ]| Whose kindness and whose modesty is such, 151:45,142[A ]| To$9$ expect so$5#1$ little and deserve so$5#1$ much; 151:45,143[A ]| Who$6#1$ have such candid worth, such dear concern, 151:45,144[A ]| Where we so$5#1$ much may love, so$5#1$ much may learn; 151:45,145[A ]| Whose every wonder, though it fills and shines, 151:45,146[A ]| It never to$4$ an ill excess declines; 151:45,147[A ]| But all are found so$5#1$ sweetly opposite, 151:45,148[A ]| As are in$4$ Titian's pieces shade and light: 151:45,149[A ]| That$3$ he that$6#1$ would your great description try, 151:45,150[A ]| Though he write well, would be as lost as I, 151:45,151[A ]| Who$6#1$ of injurious zeal convicted stand, 151:45,152[A ]| To$9$ draw you with so$5#1$ bold and bad a hand; 151:45,153[A ]| But that$3$, like$4$ other glories, I presume 151:45,154[A ]| You will$1$ enlighten, where you might consume. 151:49,000[' ]| 151:49,000[' ]| <(set by Mr Henry Law's) 1650.> 151:49,001[A ]| It is now since I began to$9$ die 151:49,002[A ]| Four months and more, yet gasping live; 151:49,003[A ]| Wrapped up$5$ in$4$ sorrows do I lie, 151:49,004[A ]| Hoping, yet doubting a reprieve. 151:49,005[A ]| Adam from Paradise expelled 151:49,006[A ]| Just such a wretched being held. 151:49,007[A ]| It is not thy love I fear to$9$ lose, 151:49,008[A ]| That$6#1$ will$1$ in$4$ spite of absence hold; 151:49,009[A ]| But it is the benefit and use 151:49,010[A ]| Is lost, as in$4$ imprisoned Gold: 151:49,011[A ]| Which$6#1$ though the sum be never so$5#1$ great, 151:49,012[A ]| Enriches nothing but conceit. 151:49,013[A ]| What angry star then governs me 151:49,014[A ]| That$3$ I must feel a double smart? 151:49,015[A ]| Prisoner to$4$ fate as well as thee; 151:49,016[A ]| Kept from thy face, linked to$4$ thy heart? 151:49,017[A ]| Because my love all Love excels, 151:49,018[A ]| Must my griefs have no$2$ parallels? 151:49,019[A ]| Sapless and dead as winter here 151:49,020[A ]| I now remain, and all I see 151:49,021[A ]| Copies of my wild state appear, 151:49,022[A ]| But I am their epitome. 151:49,023[A ]| Love me no$2$ more! for$3$ I am grown 151:49,024[A ]| Too dead and dull for$4$ thee to$9$ own. 151:53,000[' ]| 151:53,001[A ]| I have examined, and do find, 151:53,002[A ]| Of all that$6#1$ favour me, 151:53,003[A ]| There is none I grieve to$9$ leave behind 151:53,004[A ]| But only, only thee. 151:53,005[A ]| To$9$ part with thee I needs must die, 151:53,006[A ]| Could parting separate thee and I. 151:53,007[A ]| But neither chance nor compliment 151:53,008[A ]| Did element our love; 151:53,009[A ]| It was sacred sympathy was lent 151:53,010[A ]| Us from the choir above. 151:53,011[A ]| That$6#2$ friendship fortune did create, 151:53,012[A ]| Which$6#1$ fears a wound from time or fate. 151:53,013[A ]| Our changed and mingled souls are grown 151:53,014[A ]| To$4$ such acquaintance now, 151:53,015[A ]| That$3$ if each would assume their own, 151:53,016[A ]| Alas! we know not how. 151:53,017[A ]| We have each other so$5#1$ engrossed, 151:53,018[A ]| That$3$ each is in$4$ the union lost. 151:53,019[A ]| And thus we can no$2$ absence know, 151:53,020[A ]| Nor shall we be confined; 151:53,021[A ]| Our active souls will$1$ daily go 151:53,022[A ]| To$9$ learn each other's mind. 151:53,023[A ]| Nay, should we never meet to$4$ sense, 151:53,024[A ]| Our souls would hold intelligence. 151:53,025[A ]| Inspired with a flame divine, 151:53,026[A ]| I scorn to$9$ court a stay; 151:53,027[A ]| For$3$ from that$6#2$ noble soul of thine 151:53,028[A ]| I can never be away. 151:53,029[A ]| But I shall weep when thou dost grieve; 151:53,030[A ]| Nor can I die whilst thou dost live. 151:53,031[A ]| By$4$ my own temper I shall guess 151:53,032[A ]| At thy felicity, 151:53,033[A ]| And only like$1$ my happiness 151:53,034[A ]| Because it pleaseth thee. 151:53,035[A ]| Our hearts at any time will$1$ tell 151:53,036[A ]| If thou, or I, be sick, or well. 151:53,037[A ]| All honour sure I must pretend, 151:53,038[A ]| All that$6#1$ is good or great; 151:53,039[A ]| She that$6#1$ would be Rosania's friend, 151:53,040[A ]| Must be at least complete. 151:53,041[A ]| If I have any bravery, 151:53,042[A ]| It is cause I am so$5#1$ much of thee. 151:53,043[A ]| Thy leiger soul in$4$ me shall lie, 151:53,044[A ]| And all thy thoughts reveal; 151:53,045[A ]| Then back again with mine shall fly, 151:53,046[A ]| And thence to$4$ me shall steal. 151:53,047[A ]| Thus still to$4$ one another tend; 151:53,048[A ]| Such is the sacred name of friend. 151:53,049[A ]| Thus our twin souls in$4$ one shall grow, 151:53,050[A ]| And teach the World new love; 151:53,051[A ]| Redeem the age and sex, and show 151:53,052[A ]| A flame fate dares not move: 151:53,053[A ]| And courting death to$9$ be our friend, 151:53,054[A ]| Our lives together too shall end. 151:53,055[A ]| A dew shall dwell upon$4$ our tomb 151:53,056[A ]| Of such a quality, 151:53,057[A ]| That$3$ fighting armies, thither come, 151:53,058[A ]| Shall reconciled be. 151:53,059[A ]| We will$1$ ask no$2$ epitaph, but say 151:53,060[A ]| Orinda and Rosania. 151:57,000[' ]| 151:57,001[A ]| Let the dull brutish world that$6#1$ know not love 151:57,002[A ]| Continue heretics, and disapprove 151:57,003[A ]| That$6#2$ noble flame; but the refined know 151:57,004[A ]| It is all the heaven we have here below. 151:57,005[A ]| Nature subsists by$4$ Love, and they tie 151:57,006[A ]| Things to$4$ their causes but by$4$ Sympathy. 151:57,007[A ]| Love chains the differing Elements in$4$ one 151:57,008[A ]| Great harmony, linked to$4$ the heavenly throne; 151:57,009[A ]| And as on$4$ Earth, so$3$ the blest choir above 151:57,010[A ]| Of Saints and Angels are maintained by$4$ love; 151:57,011[A ]| That$6#2$ is their business and felicity, 151:57,012[A ]| And will$1$ be so$5#2$ to$4$ all eternity. 151:57,013[A ]| That$6#2$ is the Ocean, our affections here 151:57,014[A ]| Are but streams borrowed from the fountain there; 151:57,015[A ]| And it is the noblest argument to$9$ prove 151:57,016[A ]| A beauteous mind, that$3$ it knows how to$9$ love. 151:57,017[A ]| Those kind impressions which$6#1$ fate can not control, 151:57,018[A ]| Are heaven's mintage on$4$ a worthy soul; 151:57,019[A ]| For$3$ love is all the arts' epitome, 151:57,020[A ]| And is the summ of all divinity. 151:57,021[A ]| He is worse than beast that$6#1$ can not love, and yet 151:57,022[A ]| It is not bought by$4$ money, pains or wit; 151:57,023[A ]| So$3$ no$2$ chance nor design can spirits move, 151:57,024[A ]| But the eternal destiny of Love. 151:57,025[A ]| For$3$ when two souls are changed and mixed so$5#2$, 151:57,026[A ]| It is what they and none but they can do; 151:57,027[A ]| And this is friendship, that$6#2$ abstracted flame 151:57,028[A ]| Which$6#1$ creeping mortals know not how to$9$ name. 151:57,029[A ]| All Love is sacred, and the marriage tie 151:57,030[A ]| Hath much of Honour and divinity; 151:57,031[A ]| But Lust, design, or some unworthy ends 151:57,032[A ]| May mingle there, which$6#1$ are despised by$4$ friends. 151:57,033[A ]| Passion hath violent extremes, and thus 151:57,034[A ]| All oppositions are contiguous. 151:57,035[A ]| So$3$ when the end is served the Love will$1$ abate, 151:57,036[A ]| If friendship make it not more fortunate: 151:57,037[A ]| Friendship! that$6#2$ Love's Elixir, that$6#2$ pure fire 151:57,038[A ]| Which$6#1$ burns the clearer because it burns the higher; 151:57,039[A ]| For$3$ Love, like$4$ earthy fires (which$6#1$ will$1$ decay 151:57,040[A ]| If the material fuel be away) 151:57,041[A ]| Is with offensive smoke accompanied, 151:57,042[A ]| And by$4$ resistance only is supplied: 151:57,043[A ]| But friendship, like$4$ the fiery element, 151:57,044[A ]| With its own heat and nourishment content, 151:57,045[A ]| (Where neither hurt, nor smoke, nor noise is made) 151:57,046[A ]| Scorns the assistance of a foreign aid. 151:57,047[A ]| Friendship (like$4$ Heraldry) is hereby known: 151:57,048[A ]| Richest when plainest, bravest when alone; 151:57,049[A ]| Calm as a Virgin, and more innocent 151:57,050[A ]| Than sleeping Doves are, and as much content 151:57,051[A ]| As saints in$4$ visions; quiet as the night, 151:57,052[A ]| But cleare and open as the summer's light; 151:57,053[A ]| United more than spirits' faculties, 151:57,054[A ]| Higher in$4$ thoughts than are the Eagle's eyes; 151:57,055[A ]| Free as first agents are true friends, and kind, 151:57,056[A ]| As but themselves I can no$2$ likeness find. 151:61,000[' ]| 151:61,001[A ]| How sacred and how innocent 151:61,002[A ]| A country life appears, 151:61,003[A ]| How free from tumult, discontent, 151:61,004[A ]| From flattery and fears. 151:61,005[A ]| That$6#2$ was the first and happiest life, 151:61,006[A ]| When man enjoyed himself; 151:61,007[A ]| Till pride exchanged peace for$4$ strife, 151:61,008[A ]| And happiness for$4$ pelf. 151:61,009[A ]| It was here the poets were inspired, 151:61,010[A ]| And sang their mysteries, 151:61,011[A ]| And while the listening world admired, 151:61,012[A ]| Men's minds did civilize. 151:61,013[A ]| That$6#2$ golden age did entertain 151:61,014[A ]| No$2$ passion but of love; 151:61,015[A ]| The thoughts of ruling or of gain 151:61,016[A ]| Did never their fancies move. 151:61,017[A ]| None then did envy neighbour's wealth, 151:61,018[A ]| Nor plot to$9$ wrong his bed: 151:61,019[A ]| Happy in$4$ friendship and in$4$ health, 151:61,020[A ]| On$4$ roots, not beasts, they fed. 151:61,021[A ]| They knew no$2$ law nor physic then, 151:61,022[A ]| Nature was all their wit; 151:61,023[A ]| And if there yet remain to$4$ men 151:61,024[A ]| Content, sure this is it. 151:61,025[A ]| What blessing doth this world afford 151:61,026[A ]| To$9$ tempt or bribe desire? 151:61,027[A ]| Her courtship is all fire and sword, 151:61,028[A ]| Who$6#2$ would not then retire? 151:61,029[A ]| Then welcome dearest solitude, 151:61,030[A ]| My great felicity; 151:61,031[A ]| Though some are pleased to$9$ call thee rude, 151:61,032[A ]| Thou art not so$5#2$, but we, 151:61,033[A ]| Such as do covet only rest, 151:61,034[A ]| A cottage will$1$ suffice: 151:61,035[A ]| It is not brave to$9$ be possessed 151:61,036[A ]| Of Earth, but to$9$ despise. 151:61,037[A ]| Opinion is the rate of things, 151:61,038[A ]| From hence our peace doth flow;

151:65,067[A ]| And find, when each thing hath its name, 151:65,068[A ]| Passion and Zeal are not the same. 151:65,069[A ]| Who$6#1$ studies God doth upward fly, 151:65,070[A ]| And heights still lessen to$4$ our eye; 151:65,071[A ]| And he that$6#1$ knows himself will$1$ see 151:65,072[A ]| Vast cause for$4$ his humility. 151:65,073[A ]| For$3$ by$4$ that$6#2$ search it will$1$ be known 151:65,074[A ]| There is nothing but our Will$0$ our own: 151:65,075[A ]| And who$6#1$ doth that$6#2$ stock so$5#2$ employ, 151:65,076[A ]| But finds more cause for$4$ shame than joy. 151:65,077[A ]| We know so$5#1$ little and so$5#1$ dark, 151:65,078[A ]| And so$5#2$ extinguish our own spark, 151:65,079[A ]| That$3$ he who$6#1$ farthest here can go, 151:65,080[A ]| Knows nothing as he ought to$9$ know. 151:65,081[A ]| It will$1$ with the most learned suit 151:65,082[A ]| More to$9$ enquire than to$9$ dispute: 151:65,083[A ]| But vapours swell within a cloud, 151:65,084[A ]| And ignorance it is makes us proud. 151:65,085[A ]| So$3$ whom their own vain heart belies, 151:65,086[A ]| Like$4$ inflammations quickly rise: 151:65,087[A ]| But the soul that$6#1$ is truly Great 151:65,088[A ]| Is lowest in$4$ its own conceit. 151:65,089[A ]| Yet whilst we hug our own mistake, 151:65,090[A ]| We censures, but not judgements, make;

151:77,028[A ]| And that$6#2$ is the nobler empire of the two. 151:77,029[A ]| If every passion had got leave 151:77,030[A ]| Its satisfaction to$9$ receive, 151:77,031[A ]| Yet I would it a higher pleasure call, 151:77,032[A ]| To$9$ conquer one, then to$9$ indulge them all. 151:77,033[A ]| For$4$ thy inconstant Sea, no$2$ more 151:77,034[A ]| I will$1$ leave that$6#2$ safe and solid shore: 151:77,035[A ]| No$7$, though to$9$ prosper in$4$ the cheat, 151:77,036[A ]| Thou shouldst my destiny defeat, 151:77,037[A ]| And make me beloved, and rich, and great: 151:77,038[A ]| Nor from myself shouldst me reclaim 151:77,039[A ]| With all the noise and all the pomp of fame. 151:77,040[A ]| Judiciously I will$1$ these despise; 151:77,041[A ]| Too small the bargain, and too great the price, 151:77,042[A ]| For$4$ them to$9$ cozen twice. 151:77,043[A ]| At length this secret I have learned; 151:77,044[A ]| Who$6#1$ will$1$ be happy, must be unconcerned, 151:77,045[A ]| Must all their comfort in$4$ their bosom wear, 151:77,046[A ]| And seek their power and their treasure there. 151:77,047[A ]| No$2$ other Wealth will$1$ I aspire, 151:77,048[A ]| But that$6#2$ of nature to$9$ admire;

151:77,054[A ]| A throne as free from trouble as from guilt. 151:77,055[A ]| Where when my soul her wings doth raise 151:77,056[A ]| Above what worldlings fear or praise, 151:77,057[A ]| With innocent and quiet pride I will$1$ sit, 151:77,058[A ]| And see the waves pay tribute to$4$ my feet. 151:77,059[A ]| O life divine, when free from joys diseased, 151:77,060[A ]| Not always merry, but yet always pleased. 151:77,061[A ]| A heart, which$6#1$ is too great a thing 151:77,062[A ]| To$9$ be a present for$4$ a persian King, 151:77,063[A ]| Which$6#1$ God himself would have to$9$ be his court, 151:77,064[A ]| Where Angels would officiously resort, 151:77,065[A ]| From its own height should much decline, 151:77,066[A ]| If this converse it should resign, 151:77,067[A ]| (Ill natured world!) for$4$ thine. 151:77,068[A ]| Thy unwise rigour hath thy empire lost; 151:77,069[A ]| It hath not only set me free, 151:77,070[A ]| But it hath let me see, 151:77,071[A ]| They only can of thy possession boast, 151:77,072[A ]| Who$6#1$ do enjoy thee least, and understand thee most. 151:77,073[A ]| For$3$ lo! the man whom all mankind admired 151:77,074[A ]| By$4$ every grace adorned, and every must inspired, 151:77,075[A ]| Is now triumphantly retired. 151:77,076[A ]| The mighty Cowley this hath done, 151:77,077[A ]| And over thee a Parthian conquest won: 151:77,078[A ]| Which$6#1$ future ages shall adore, 151:77,079[A ]| And which$6#1$ in$4$ this subdues thee more 151:77,080[A ]| Than either Greek or Roman ever could before. 151:81,000[' ]| 151:81,000[' ]| 151:81,001[A ]| It is true, our life is but a long disease, 151:81,002[A ]| Made up$5$ of real pain and seeming ease;

151:81,010[A ]| Our hopes are crossed, 151:81,011[A ]| Or else the object lost, 151:81,012[A ]| Before we can call it ours. 151:85,000[' ]| 151:85,001[A ]| If honour to$4$ an ancient name be due, 151:85,002[A ]| Or Riches challenge it for$4$ one that$6#1$ is new, 151:85,003[A ]| The British Language claims in$4$ either Sense, 151:85,004[A ]| Both for$4$ its Age, and for$4$ its Opulence. 151:85,005[A ]| But all great things must be from us removed, 151:85,006[A ]| To$9$ be with higher Reverence beloved: 151:85,007[A ]| So$3$ Landscapes which$6#1$ in$4$ prospects distant lie, 151:85,008[A ]| With greater wonder draw the pleased Eye. 151:85,009[A ]| Is not great Troy to$4$ one dark ruin hurled? 151:85,010[A ]| Once the famed Scene of all the fighting World. 151:85,011[A ]| Where is Athens now, to$4$ whom Rome learning owes, 151:85,012[A ]| And the safe Laurels that$6#1$ Adorned her brows? 151:85,013[A ]| A strange reverse of Fate she did endure, 151:85,014[A ]| Never once greater, than she is now obscure. 151:85,015[A ]| Even Rome herself can but some footsteps show 151:85,016[A ]| Of Scipio's times, or those of Cicero: 151:85,017[A ]| And as the Roman and the Grecian State, 151:85,018[A ]| The British fell, the spoil of Time and Fate. 151:85,019[A ]| But though the Language hath her beauty Lost, 151:85,020[A ]| Yet she has still some great remains to$9$ boast; 151:85,021[A ]| For$3$ it was in$4$ that$6#2$, the sacred Bards of old, 151:85,022[A ]| In$4$ deathless numbers did their thoughts unfold. 151:85,023[A ]| In$4$ Groves, by$4$ Rivers, and on$4$ fertile plains, 151:85,024[A ]| They civilized and taught the Listening Swains; 151:85,025[A ]| Whilst with high Raptures, and as great success, 151:85,026[A ]| Virtue they clothed in$4$ music's charming dress. 151:85,027[A ]| This Merlin spoke, who$6#1$ in$4$ his gloomy Cave, 151:85,028[A ]| Even Destiny herself seemed to$9$ enslave. 151:85,029[A ]| For$3$ to$4$ his Sight the future time was known, 151:85,030[A ]| Much better than to$4$ others is their own: 151:85,031[A ]| And with such state, Predictions from him fell, 151:85,032[A ]| As if he did Decree, and not foretell. 151:85,033[A ]| This spoke King Arthur;

but whoever meant 152:13,018[A ]| A Palace for$4$ a Tenement? 152:13,019[A ]| Heaven has so$5#2$ built thee, that$3$ we find 152:13,020[A ]| Thee buried when thou art confined: 152:13,021[A ]| If thou in$4$ privacy wouldst live, 152:13,022[A ]| Yet lustre to$4$ thy virtues give; 152:13,023[A ]| To$9$ stifle them for$4$ want of air, 152:13,024[A ]| Injurious is to$4$ Heaven's care. 152:13,025[A ]| If thou wilt be immured, where 152:13,026[A ]| Shall thy obliging soul appear? 152:13,027[A ]| Where shall thy generous prudence be, 152:13,028[A ]| And where thy magnanimity? 152:13,029[A ]| Nay, thy own Darling thou dost hide, 152:13,030[A ]| Thy self-denial is denied; 152:13,031[A ]| For$3$ he that$6#1$ never greatness tries, 152:13,032[A ]| Can never safely it despise. 152:13,033[A ]| That$3$ Antoninus writ well, when 152:13,034[A ]| He held a Sceptre and a Pen: 152:13,035[A ]| Less credit Solomon does bring 152:13,036[A ]| As a Philosopher than King; 152:13,037[A ]| So$5#1$ much advantage flows from hence, 152:13,038[A ]| To$9$ write by$4$ our Experience. 152:13,039[A ]| Diogenes I must suspect 152:13,040[A ]| Of envy, more than wise neglect, 152:13,041[A ]| When he his Prince so$5#1$ ill did treat, 152:13,042[A ]| And so$5#1$ much spurned at the great: 152:13,043[A ]| A censure is not clear from those 152:13,044[A ]| Whom Fate subjects, or does depose; 152:13,045[A ]| Nor can we greatness understand 152:13,046[A ]| From an oppressed or fallen hand: 152:13,047[A ]| But it is some Prince must that$6#2$ define, 152:13,048[A ]| Or one that$6#1$ freely did resign. 152:13,049[A ]| A great Almanzor teaches thus, 152:13,050[A ]| Or else a Dionysius. 152:13,051[A ]| For$3$ to$9$ know Grandeur we must live 152:13,052[A ]| In$4$ that$6#2$, and not in$4$ perspective; 152:13,053[A ]| Vouchsafe the trial then, that$3$ thou 152:13,054[A ]| Mayst safely wield, yet disallow 152:13,055[A ]| The World's temptations, and be still 152:13,056[A ]| Above whatever would thee fill. 152:13,057[A ]| Convince mankind, there is somewhat more 152:13,058[A ]| Great than the titles they adore: 152:13,059[A ]| Stand near them, and it will$1$ soon be known 152:13,060[A ]| Thou hast more splendour of thy own; 152:13,061[A ]| Yield to$4$ the wanting Age, and be 152:13,062[A ]| Channel of true Nobility: 152:13,063[A ]| For$3$ from thy Womb such Heroes needs must arise, 152:13,064[A ]| Who$6#1$ Honours will$1$ deserve, and can despise. 152:17,000[' ]| 152:17,000[' ]| 152:17,000[A ]| Madam, 152:17,001[A ]| As some untimely Flower, whose bashful head 152:17,002[A ]| (Ready to$9$ drop into her humble Bed) 152:17,003[A ]| Is rescued by$4$ the Sun's prevailing Ray, 152:17,004[A ]| To$9$ share that$6#2$ Light with which$6#1$ he gilds the Day; 152:17,005[A ]| So$3$ this Translation, of strict Eyes afraid, 152:17,006[A ]| With conscious blushes would have sought a shade, 152:17,007[A ]| When your resistless Power did Orders give, 152:17,008[A ]| Thus to$9$ recall the timorous Fugitive, 152:17,009[A ]| Which$6#1$ to$4$ your breath must all her being own, 152:17,010[A ]| Thrive when you smile, and wither if you frown. 152:17,011[A ]| Yet from submission this assurance grows, 152:17,012[A ]| That$3$ you will$1$ protect the Person you expose, 152:17,013[A ]| Who$6#1$ more delight from such a shelter draws, 152:17,014[A ]| Than to$9$ obtain, or to$9$ desire applause, 152:17,015[A ]| And your indulgence would much rather choose, 152:17,016[A ]| Than to$9$ be Favorite to$4$ every Muse. 152:17,017[A ]| For$3$ even they request to$9$ wait on$4$ you, 152:17,018[A ]| Who$6#1$ can best judge, and best reward them too; 152:17,019[A ]| You, who$6#1$ are more than Poets can invent, 152:17,020[A ]| Of most illustrious and most innocent, 152:17,021[A ]| Under your beams their faint Ideas sink, 152:17,022[A ]| And you more nobly live than they could think. 152:17,023[A ]| In$4$ you the humble and the brave are met, 152:17,024[A ]| To$9$ show what is truly, and what is only great; 152:17,025[A ]| And all the Cliffords' Fame in$4$ you does shine, 152:17,026[A ]| The greatest Honour of the Noblest Line: 152:17,027[A ]| To$4$ whom your debt of splendour you have paid, 152:17,028[A ]| And that$6#2$ (and more) to$4$ after times conveyed, 152:17,029[A ]| In$4$ such a Race as must those wonders do, 152:17,030[A ]| That$3$ none could act but they, inspire but you. 152:17,031[A ]| But as your Merit does all Praise excel, 152:17,032[A ]| So$3$ does your Mercy all injurious zeal; 152:17,033[A ]| And in$4$ you that$6#2$ adored advantage live, 152:17,034[A ]| That$3$ nothing else is left you to$9$ forgive: 152:17,035[A ]| But even your goodness will$1$ itself outshine, 152:17,036[A ]| If it can pardon this Address of mine. 152:17,037[A ]| So$3$ Altars once did Fire from Heaven enjoy, 152:17,038[A ]| Sent but to$9$ kindle what it might destroy. 152:25,000[' ]| 152:25,000[' ]| 152:25,001[A ]| At such a time as this, when all conclude 152:25,002[A ]| Nothing but unconcernment can be rude, 152:25,003[A ]| The muses, Madam, will$1$ not be denied 152:25,004[A ]| To$9$ be the bride maids where you are the bride. 152:25,005[A ]| They know in$4$ what those wishes have designed, 152:25,006[A ]| What bright opposers they are like$5$ to$9$ find, 152:25,007[A ]| Whose birth and beauty never will$1$ give way 152:25,008[A ]| To$4$ such obscure competitors as they. 152:25,009[A ]| But yet, as injured princes still do strive 152:25,010[A ]| To$9$ keep their title and their claim alive, 152:25,011[A ]| So$3$ they affirm they do but ask their due, 152:25,012[A ]| Having hereditary right in$4$ you. 152:25,013[A ]| And they again would rather undergo 152:25,014[A ]| All that$6#1$ malicious ignorance could do, 152:25,015[A ]| When fortune all things sacred did oppress, 152:25,016[A ]| Than in$4$ this brave ambition want success. 152:25,017[A ]| Admit them, beauteous Madam, then to$9$ be 152:25,018[A ]| Attendants on$4$ this great solemnity, 152:25,019[A ]| And every muse will$1$ in$4$ a charming strain 152:25,020[A ]| Your honour and their own pretence maintain. 152:25,021[A ]| The first your high extraction shall proclaim, 152:25,022[A ]| And what endeared your Ancestors to$4$ fame, 152:25,023[A ]| Who$6#1$ do not more excel another stem, 152:25,024[A ]| Than your illustrious father hath done them; 152:25,025[A ]| Who$6#1$ fortune's stratagems hath so$5#2$ surpassed, 152:25,026[A ]| As flattery can not reach, nor envy blast; 152:25,027[A ]| In$4$ whom vice-gerence is a greater thing 152:25,028[A ]| Than any crown, but that$6#2$ of England's King; 152:25,029[A ]| Whom foreign princes do with envy see, 152:25,030[A ]| And would be subjects to$9$ be such as he. 152:25,031[A ]| Another shall your mother's glories raise, 152:25,032[A ]| And much her beauty, more her virtue praise;
