الصفحة 274 - Are we a piece of machinery, which, like the /Eolian harp, passive, takes the impression of the passing accident ; or do these workings argue something within us above the trodden clod ? I own myself partial to such proofs of those awful and important realities : a God that made all things, man's immaterial and immortal nature, and a world of weal or wo beyond death and the grave.
الصفحة 290 - Farewell, my friends ; farewell, my foes ! My peace with these, my love with those : The bursting tears my heart declare...
الصفحة 177 - Audacious ; but, that seat soon failing, meets A vast vacuity : all unawares, Fluttering his pennons vain, plumb down he drops Ten thousand' fathom deep, and to this hour Down had been falling, had not by ill chance The strong rebuff of some tumultuous cloud, Instinct with fire and nitre, hurried him As many miles aloft...
الصفحة 291 - It needs no effort of imagination,' says he, 'to conceive what the sensations of an isolated set of scholars (almost all either clergymen or professors) must have been in the presence of this big-boned, blackbrowed, brawny stranger, with his great flashing eyes, who, having forced his way among them from the plough-tail at a single stride, manifested in the whole strain of his bearing and conversation a most thorough conviction, that in the society of the most eminent men of his nation he was exactly...

الصفحة 262 - But a true poet, a man in whose heart resides some effluence of wisdom, some tone of the " eternal melodies," is the most precious gift that can be bestowed on a generation. We see in him a freer, purer development of whatever is noblest in ourselves ; his life is a rich lesson to us, and we mourn his death as that of a benefactor who loved and taught us.
الصفحة 292 - I may truly say, Virgilium •vidi tantum. I was a lad of fifteen in 1786-7, when he came first to Edinburgh, but had sense and feeling enough to be much interested in his poetry, and would have given the world to know him : but I had very little acquaintance with any literary people, and still less with the gentry of the west country, the two sets that he most frequented. Mr. Thomas Grierson was at that time a clerk of my 5 father's.
الصفحة 259 - In one word, what and how produced was the effect of society on him ; what and how produced was his effect on society ? He •who should answer these questions, in regard to any individual, would, as we believe, furnish a model of perfection in Biography.
الصفحة 625 - And were this world all Devils o'er And watching to devour us, We lay it not to heart so sore, Not they can overpower us. And let the Prince of 111 Look grim as e'er he will, He harms us not a whit, For why ? His doom is writ, A word shall quickly slay him.
الصفحة 263 - Peasant show himself among us ; ' a soul like an ^Eolian harp, in whose ' strings the vulgar wind, as it passed through them, ' changed itself into articulate melody.' And this was he for whom the world found no fitter business than quarrelling with smugglers and vintners, computing...
