Side 14 - A universe of death ; which God by curse Created evil, for evil only good, Where all life dies, death lives, and nature breeds, Perverse, all monstrous, all prodigious things, Abominable, inutterable, and worse Than fables yet have feign'd, or fear conceiv'd, Gorgons, and Hydras, and Chimeras dire.
Side 265 - tis He alone Decidedly can try us, He knows each chord — its various tone, Each spring — its various bias : Then at the balance let's be mute, We never can adjust it; What's done we partly may compute, But know not what's resisted.

Oh fpeak the joy! ye, "whom the fudden tear Surprizes often, while you look around, And nothing ftrikes your eye but fights of blifs, All various Nature preffing on the heart : An elegant fufficiency, content, Retirement, rural quiet, friendfhip, books, Eafe and alternate labour, ufeful life, Progreffive virtue, and approving HEAVEN.

Side 304 - ... her confidence in the poffibility of future happinefs from future exertions of virtue. It was her opinion, that the fupport of reputation being found to be a ftrong additional motive to virtue, it ought not to be put out of the power of the unfortunate female, who, confcious of her error, is defirous to retrieve it by her after conduit.
Side 103 - ... be always blind to a truth fo obvious. How can I believe it compatible with the nature of mind, that fo many ftrong and reiterated efforts fliall be productive of no effect?
Side 223 - Prudence should be tied, Venus in vain the wedded pair would crown, If angry Fortune on their union frown: Soon will the flattering dream of bliss be o'er, And cloy'd imagination cheat no more.
