Popular passages
Page 209 - Mont Blanc is the monarch of mountains, They crowned him long ago On a throne of rocks, hi a robe of clouds, With a diadem of snow.
Page 206 - neath the silver moon ocean is glowing, O'er the calm billows soft winds are blowing. Here balmy zephyrs blow, pure joys invite us, And as we gently row all things delight us. Hark, how the sailor's cry joyously echoes nigh. Santa Lucia!
Page 149 - O THE splendor of the city, When the sun is in the west! Ruddy gold on spire and belfry, Gold on Moskwa's placid breast; Till the twilight soft and sombre Falls on wall and street and square, And the domes and towers in shadow Stand like silent monks at prayer.
