Page 233 - But the Sensitive Plant, which could give small fruit Of the love which it felt from the leaf to the root. Received more than all; it loved more than ever. Where none wanted but it, could belong to the giver...
Page 142 - À prix de faux clins d'yeux et d'élans affectés; Ces gens, dis-je, qu'on voit, d'une ardeur non commune...
Page 148 - And that which should accompany old age, As honour, love, obedience, troops of friends, I must not look to have ; but, in their stead, Curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honour, breath, Which the poor heart would fain deny, and dare not.
