The time was neglected; and the consequence is that Mr Mitford like Kehama, has laid his victorious hand on the literary Amreeta, and seems about to taste the precious elixir of immortality. I shall venture to emulate the courage of the honest Glendoveer
If you see it, pray alter the last senseless line of the first page into 'Leaf sounds with water, in your ear, and put 'amreeta' instead of 'amneta' on the second page; and strike out 'of' in the line which names Aeschylus! They have a lyrical dramatic poem of mine, 'The Two Seraphim, which, whenever it appears, I shall like to have your opinion of.
Cheap prices of grain are like the Amreeta cap in Kehama; the greatest of all blessings is the greatest of all curses, according as they arise from magnitude of domestic production, or magnitude of foreign importation.
But to that other class, whose nervous sensibilities vibrate to their profoundest depths under the first touch of the angelic poison, even as a lover's ear thrills on hearing unexpectedly the voice of her whom he loves, opium is the Amreeta cup of beatitude.

You may trust me with the secret of your kindness to me. It shall not go farther. To H.S. Boyd Monday, September 1, 1844. My dearest Mr. Boyd, I thank you for the Cyprus, and also for a still sweeter amreeta your praise. Poetry is to me rather a passion than an ambition, and the gadfly which drives me along that road pricks deeper than an expectation of fame could do.
While the manly man of the woods is breathing Nature like an Amreeta draught, is it anything less than the summum bonum? "Yet some call American life dull." "Ay, to dullards!" ejaculated Iglesias. Moose were said to haunt these regions. Toward midnight our would-be moose-hunter paddled about up and down, seeking them and finding not. The waters were too high. Lily-pads were drowned.
