ld not die. _Venus and Adonis_. SHAKESPEARE. There Affectation, with a sickly mien, Shows in her cheek the roses of eighteen. _Rape of the Lock, Canto IV_. A. POPE. Sweet, pouting lips, whose color mocks the rose, Rich, ripe, and teeming with the dew of bliss,-- The flower of love's forbidden fruit, which grows Insidiously to tempt us with a kiss. _Tasso's Sonnets_. R.H. WILDE. Her face betokened all things dear and good, The light of somewhat yet to come was there Asleep, and waiting for the opening day. _Margaret in the Xebec_. J. INGELOW. Her face is like the Milky Way i' the sky,-- A meeting of gentle lights without a name. _Breunoralt_. SIR J. SUCKLING. A face with gladness overspread! Soft smiles, by human kindness bred! _To a Highland Girl_. W. WORDSWORTH. FAIRY.

Left, right, pull it tight; Summer days are warm; Underground in winter, Laughing at the storm!" Lay your ear close to the hill, Do you not catch the tiny clamor, Busy click of an elfin hammer, Voice of the Leprecaun singing shrill As he merrily plies his trade? He's a span And quarter in height. Get him in sight, hold him fast, And you're a made Man! _The Fairy Shoemaker_. W. ALLINGHAM. Some say no evil thing that walks by night, In fog, or fire, by lake or moorish fen, Blue meagre hag, or stubborn unlaid ghost That breaks his magic chains at curfew time, No goblin, or swart fairy of the mine, Hath hurtful power o'er true virginity. _Comus_.
