Стр. 291 - I can command the lightning, and am dust; A monarch, and a slave ; a worm, a god.
Стр. 119 - Ah. Maiden ! wait and watch and yearn For news of Stonewall's band. Ah, Widow! read, with eyes that burn, That ring upon thy hand. Ah, Wife! sew on, pray on, hope on; Thy life shall not be all forlorn ; The foe had better ne'er been born That gets in
