Página 291 - The day broke beautifully clear, and having crossed a deep valley between the hills, we toiled up the opposite slope. I hurried to the summit. The glory of our prize burst suddenly upon me! There, like a sea of quicksilver, lay far beneath the grand expanse of water, — a boundless sea horizon on the south and southwest, glittering in the noonday sun; and on the west at fifty or sixty miles...

Página 113 - Not to myself alone," The heavy-laden bee doth murmuring hum — " Not to myself alone from flower to flower I rove the wood, the garden, and the bower, And to the hive at evening weary come ; For man, for man the luscious food I pile With busy care, Content if this repay my ceaseless toil — A scanty share." .

Página 259 - ... in their own country, it is this very system that perpetuates, if not causes, the unhappy condition with which the comparative comfort of some of them in slavery is contrasted. Ethnologists reckon the African as by no means the lowest of the human family. He is nearly as strong physically as the European, and, as a race, is wonderfully persistent among the nations of the earth...
Página 195 - ... a faint impression of the glorious scene. The probable mode of its formation may perhaps help to the conception of its peculiar shape.
