Poems by William Lisle Bowles
Languid, And Sad, And Slow, From Day To Day
... (Where the rich landscape gleams with softer hue) ...
I. Written at Tinemouth, Northumberland, after a Tempestuous Voyage

XIII. O Time! Who Know'st a Lenient Hand to Lay...
... And meet life's peaceful evening with a smile -- ...

... We murmured, "Dust to dust!"A moonbeam from the arch's height ...
III. O Thou, whose stern command and precepts pure...

Sonnet VI. Evening, as slow thy placid shades descend...
... Ah! beauteous views, that hope's fair gleams the while, ...

... Till this frail orb shall from its sphere be hurled, ...
Fairy Sketch
... Or haply, when the full-orbed moon shone bright, ...

... -- With thee, and thy unfriended children dwell ...
On Hearing "The Messiah"
... But he whose heart thrills to this angel song ...

... Blameless improve the time that heaven has lent, ...
The Tweed Visited
... Delightful stream! though now along thy shore, ...
