Popular passages
Page 223 - As may with sweetness, through mine ear, Dissolve me into ecstasies, 165 And bring all Heaven before mine eyes. And may at last my weary age Find out the peaceful hermitage, The hairy gown and mossy cell Where I may sit and rightly spell 170 Of every star that heaven doth shew, And every herb that sips the dew; Till old experience do attain To something like prophetic strain.
