...e;
Can’st thou wreck his peace for ever,
 Wha for thine would gladly die?
While the life beats in my bosom,
 Thou shalt mix in ilka throe:
Turn again, thou lovely maiden,
 Ae sweet smile on me bestow.


Not the bee upon the blossom,
 In the pride o’ sinny noon;
Not the little sporting fairy,
 All beneath the simmer moon;

Kens the pleasure, feels the rapture,
 That thy presence gies to me....Read more of this...

So they may try out their ferocity.

In the bread and wine destined for his lips,
They mix in cinders and spit with their wrath,
And throw out all he touches as he grasps it,
And accuse him of putting his feet in their path.

His wife cries out so that everyone hears:
"Since he finds me good enough to adore
I'll weave as the idols of ancient years
A corona of gold as a cover.

"I'll get drunk on nard, incense and myrrh,
Get down on ben...Read more of this...

Between the winding Dardanelles; 
But yet he saw nor sea nor strand, 
Nor even his Pacha's turban'd band 
Mix in the game of mimic slaughter, 
Careering cleave the folded felt [13] 
With sabre stroke right sharply dealt; 
Nor mark'd the javelin-darting crowd, 
Nor heard their Ollahs wild and loud [14] — 
He thought but of old Giaffir's daughter!

 So far as I've gone wiv the vintage of war.
For ain't it a fraud! when a Boche and yours truly
 Gits into a mix in the grit and the grime,
'E jerks up 'is 'ands wiv a yell and 'e's duly
 Part of me outfit every time.

Goose step, keep up yer mits!
Oh my, Ain't it a shyme!

...universal sway,Matter, and all its various forms, obey;Whether they mix in elemental strife,Or meet in married calm, and foster life.His nature baffles all created mind,In earth or heaven, to fathom, or to find.One glimpse of glory on the saints bestow'd,With eager longings fills the courts of God...Read more of this...

...linger,
Except yon cypress that points like Death's lean lifted forefinger.
Some think fireflies pretty, when they mix in the corn and mingle,
Or thrid the stinking hemp till the stalks of it seem a-tingle.
Late August or early September, the stunning cicala is shrill,
And the bees keep their tiresome whine round the resinous firs on the hill.
Enough of the seasons,—I spare you the months of the fever and chill.
