Page 97 - Piping down the valleys wild, Piping songs of pleasant glee, On a cloud I saw a child, And he laughing said to me : — ' Pipe a song about a lamb : ' So I piped with merry cheer. ' Piper, pipe that song again : ' So I piped ; he wept to hear.
Page 164 - Aber dringt bis in der Schönheit Sphäre, Und im Staube bleibt die Schwere Mit dem Stoff, den sie beherrscht, zurück. Nicht der Masse qualvoll abgerungen, Schlank und leicht, wie aus dem Nichts gesprungen, Steht das Bild vor dem entzückten Blick.
Page 41 - Who is he that would become my follower? Who would sign himself a candidate for my affections? The way is suspicious, the result uncertain, perhaps destructive, You would have to give up all else, I alone would expect to be your sole and exclusive standard, Your novitiate would even then be long and exhausting, The whole past theory of your life and all conformity to the lives around you would have to be abandon'd...

Little lamb, who made thee? Little lamb, I'll tell thee; Little lamb, I'll tell thee. He is called by thy name, For He calls himself a Lamb; He is meek and He is mild, He became a little child.

Until they won her...

Page 33 - Prosa !" ; denn was war diese erste Sprache als eine Sammlung von Elementen der Poesie? Nachahmung der tönenden, handelnden, sich regenden Natur! Aus den Interjektionen aller Wesen genommen und von Interjektion menschlicher Empfindung belebet!
Page 71 - OF THE TERRIBLE DOUBT OF APPEARANCES OF THE terrible doubt of appearances, Of the uncertainty after all, that we may be deluded, That may-be reliance and hope are but speculations after all, That may-be identity beyond the grave is a beautiful fable only, May-be the things I perceive, the animals, plants, men, hills, shining and flowing waters, The skies of day and night, colors, densities, forms, may-be these are (as doubtless they are) only apparitions, and the real something has yet to be known,...
