And afterward it came to pass he saw, And lov'd a woman named Delilah, Who in the vale of Sorek dwelt, to whom There did the lords of the Philistines come, And said, If thou wilt but entice him to reveal Where lies his strength, and which way we may deal With him, to bind him, to afflict him, we Each one will give a great reward to thee.
You had a Mistress once, if you have not Forgotten her, who would have taken you with All these faults. Fal. There was so; but she was poor, that's the Devil, I could have lov'd her else. But go thy ways; what dost thou muse on? Lab. Faith, Sir, I am only fearful you will never Pass with those Patches you speak of. Fal.
Granby's understanding, manners, and temper in a most advantageous and amiable light, Griselda was mortified beyond measure. She could scarcely bear to hear Emma's name mentioned. "She that can please, is certain to persuade, To-day is lov'd, to-morrow is obey'd." A few days after the reading party, Griselda was invited to spend an evening at Mrs. Granby's.
There Fancy, her mirror holds up to the eye, And lovely the forms that come wandering by, Like music come softly the sounds that have fled, The voices of lov'd ones, the tones of the dead: Oh Memory! keep that spot fresh and green ever, And the dark tides of Time, sweep over it never. For beautiful Hope, wanders oft to the Isle, With her wreath of bright flowers, and radiant smile.
And at New-year, the day-book is not written fair over; and if any body desires their reckoning, the squire is so full of business, that he can't spare half an hour to write it out: For where he goes, where he stands, what he thinks, what he does, all his cogitations are imploi'd to think how delicious it is to press those soft lips of his beloved, and then out of an unfeigned heart to be lov'd again, sometimes receiving a kiss.
But as I stood and held that little hand, I seem'd across the very mist of happiness to read a sentence written, and spoke it, perforce and slow, as with another man's mouth "Delia, you only have I lov'd, and will love! Blithe would I be to live with you, and to serve you would blithely die. In sorrow, then, call for me, or in trust abide me. But go with you now I may not."
Still for my Wife's sake, I say, and't like your Hideousness. Car. And yet this Wife, this most ungrateful Wife of yours, again wou'd put your Chains on, expose your Life to Dangers and new Torments, by a too stubborn Virtue, she does refuse my Courtship, and foolishly is chaste. Fran. Alas! what pity's that! Car. I offer'd much, lov'd much, but all in vain; Husband and Honour still was the reply.
Martin knew better than to show temper; he accepted the situation, and the lov'd Amasia's Health flew round, Amasia's Health the Golden Goblets crown'd. Now began the first and happiest portion of the story. Amasia had no suspicion of the feelings of the poet, and he was only too happy to be permitted to watch her movements. He records, in successive copies of verses, the various things she did.
Never, never did you truly Love me: I know, the Dead being Wiser than the Living! 'T is Emily Lov'd me truest." And oh, thou awful, far-off God, I cannot make him Understand! And unless I can make him understand, I am lost! My misery, my misery! He will not listen. I am dying of this thing! Now did Shooba's Death-in-Life come upon him once more, and for a day and a night he lay Stark.
Imagination has been weighted by the innumerable details, more and more essential to the Puritan mind, but now she draws one long free breath, and rises far beyond the petty limit of her usual thought, the italicised lines in what follows holding a music one may seek for in vain in any other verse of the period: Under the cooling shadow of a stately Elm, Close sate I by a goodly Rivers side, Where gliding streams the Rocks did overwhelm; A lonely place with pleasures dignifi'd, I once that lov'd the shady woods so well, Now thought the rivers did the trees excel, And if the sun would ever shine there would I dwell.
