Excerpts from the ReadingWillow English Library collection.

By many streams a little lake did fill,
Which round its marge reflected woven bowers,
And, in its middle space, a sky that never lowers.

Buds lavish gold ; or ye, whose precious charge
Nibble their All at ocean's very marge.
Whose mellow reeds are touched wim sounds forlorn

His white, delicate neck
To the ivy-wreathed marge
Of thy cup; the bright, glancing vine-leaves

And hid her face 'neath a gracious cloud.
She faltered faint on the night's dim marge,
But "How," spoke the youth, "have you kept your charge?"

And, under vines, on rocky isle,
Or on wind-blown sea-marge bleak,
Forward stepped the perfect Greek:

Did I say "without friend?"
Say rather, from marge to blue marge
The whole sky grew his targe

Duke's!
Or a sonnet with flowery marge, to the Reverend Don So-and-so,
Who is Dante, Boccaccio, Petrarca, Saint Jerome, and Cicero;

But straight with all their tints thy waters rise,
Thy crossing plank, thy marge with willows grey,
And bedded sand that vein'd with various dyes

But straight with all their tints thy waters rise,
Thy crossing plank, thy marge with willows grey,
And bedded sand that vein'd with various dyes 10

Lingers upon its marge, ... 1820.
