Thence the loud thunders roar, and lightnings glare Along the darkness of the troubled air. Unmoved by storms, old Ocean peaceful sleeps Till the loud tempest swells the angry deeps. And thus the State, in full distraction toss'd, Oft by its noblest citizen is lost; And oft a people once secure and free, Their own imprudence dooms to tyranny.
Boil'd Venison, with its Furniture. From Mr. Take an Haunch of Venison, salt it well, and let it remain a Week, then boil it, and serve it with a furniture of Collyflowers, Russia Cabbages, some of the Hertfordshire Turnips cut in dice, and boiled in a Net, and toss'd up with Butter and Cream, or else have some of the yellow French Turnips, cut in dice, and boil'd like the former; or we might add some red Beet-Roots boiled in dice, and butter'd in the same manner.
" 'Though toss'd by the rage of waves and wind, The bark held together still, One arm was strong it bore us along, And has saved from every ill. "The Spirit returns to his hiding-place, But his words have been like balm. The big tears start, but the fluttering heart Is sooth'd, and soften'd, and calm." "I remember that," said Florence; "it is beautiful." "Who's the writer?" said Mr. Stackpole.
A little blossom, the only one to be seen around, had grown exactly on the spot where the sexton chose to dig poor Kate's last resting-place. It was a weak but lovely flower, and now lay where it had been carelessly toss'd amid the coarse gravel.
The Want of an Observation for so many Days, and the Loss of our Captain, the only Artist on board, with the Want of a Compass, was the Reason of our being altogether ignorant of the Coast on which our Vessel perish'd. The Piece of the Wreck which I was upon, was, after being toss'd some Hours, thrown ashore, and I got so far on Land, that the returning Surf did not reach me.
He can but say with his favourite sage: The Ball no question makes of Ayes and Noes, But Here or There as strikes the Player goes; And He that toss'd you down into the Field, He knows about it all He knows HE knows!
This is an excellent Dish, especially, if the Cabbages, or Collyflowers, are toss'd up with Butter and Cream, but the Brocoli must only have the Butter pour'd over them. A Neck of Mutton and Broth. From L. P. Esq. The Method of this Broth was first from a mistake, where instead of boiling a Neck of Mutton, as directed, the Cook roasted it.
And verily methinks I have a mind to take my portion of it also; but yet not so as the Nurse did at my Neeces, who had toss'd up her bowls so bravely upon the good health of the Child-bed woman her Mistriss, that when she was going to swathe and feed the Child, instead of putting the spoon into the mouth, she thrust it under the chin, & sometimes against the breast; and then when she was about swathing of it; as it is commonly the custom to lay a wollen blanket and linnen bed together, she wrapt the poor Infant with its little naked body only in the blanket alone.
Come, dearest, come! tho' all in vain; Once more beside you summer main We'll plight our hopeless vows again Unclose thine eyes. My bark amidst the surge is toss'd, I go, by evil fortunes cross'd, My earthly hopes for ever lost Love's dearest prize. But when thy hand is clasp'd in mine, I'll laugh at fortune, nor repine; In life, in death, for ever thine Then check these sighs.
Twas incredible how it put fire into them all: and Sir Bevill toss'd his hat into the air, and after him like schoolboys we pelted, straight for the masses ahead. For now over the rampart came a company of red musketeers, and two of russet-clad pikemen, charging down on us. A moment, and we were crushed back: another, and the chant rose again.
