Far more blessed than we, in northern states Dwells the beggar at the angel-gates, For he sees the peerless city Rome! Beauty's glorious charms around him lie, And, a second heaven, up toward the sky Mounts St. Peter's proud and wondrous dome. But, with all the charms that splendor grants, Rome is but the tomb of ages past; Life but smiles upon the blooming plants That the seasons round her cast.
Beauty's dog is affected by the eye-glass in a manner not unlike the common animal's terror of the human eye. Richard appeared to hear nothing, or it was homage that he heard. He repeated to Lucy Diaper Sandoe's verses "The cockneys nod to each other aside, The coxcombs lift their glasses," and projected hiring a horse for her to ride every day in the park, and shine among the highest.
So the two friends sat hand in hand a minute or two; and that hard grip of two workingmen's hands, though it was not gently eloquent like beauty's soft, expressive palm, did yet say many things good for the heart in this bitter hour. It said: "A great calamity has fallen; but we do not blame each other, as some turn to directly and do. It is not your fault, George. It is not your fault, Tom."
To know so strong a man, so fine an animal, was something to boast of. In fact, he had got into a world which did not cut him, and his exterior was improved by the atmosphere. Mr. Losely professed to dislike general society. Drawing rooms were insipid; clubs full of old fogies. "I am for life, my boys," said Mr. Losely, "'Can sorrow from the goblet flow, Or pain from Beauty's eye?" Mr.

Love omnipotent was her creator. Then I too plainly noted that the lovely maid, revealed the signs of passion long entertained for some happy youth. Her shape was as slender as the lotus stalk.
At last commingling together they join and look astonished and in fear, silent without a word. He, addressing the women, said, "Now all of you, so graceful and fair, see if you cannot by your combined power hit on some device; for beauty's power is not forever.
Edward is wonderfully taken with him; but he never looks very far below the surface. And Fanny why the girl seemed perfectly fascinated!" And Aunt Grace shook her head ominously, as she added "He's handsome enough; but beauty's only skin-deep, and he may be as black as Lucifer inside." A greater part of the next day Mr. Markland and Mr.
She's a strornary pretty beggar-wench, with blue eyes and black hair, as used to stand at the corner of Essex Street, Strand, and the money as that gal got a-holdin' out her matches and a-sayin' texes out of the Bible must ha' been strornary. So the Essex Street Beauty's bin about here agin on the rainy-night dodge, 'es she?
It was diplomatic, but Johnston's hint of fairness went further, and in spite of the frail beauty's smiles, a number of those who listened waved the tray aside with the words "I pass!" Then, when some one called out to ask what was the matter with the circus, and whether the clown were lost, while others demanded "The lady!"
"You have got to show me where you're any better acting," Vic pointed out, with the merciless candor of beauty's young brother. "It sure ain't your disposition that's improved, I can tell you those." "And with those few remarks you can close," Helen May retorted gleefully, hurrying off to get the headache tablet. It was just a headache, poor fellow! He wasn't peeved at all, and nothing was wrong!
