The broad stream in his banks complaining,
Heavily the low sky raining
Over tower'd Camelot;

But since I've taught already of what sort
The seeds of all things are, and how distinct

But what cared I!
For my sky shone bright and clear
In Eliza's eye.

Of course, there is no lack of faithful Christians ,too.
Most of Lithuanians are men of good character;
They love their families, obey the will of God.

That touch each other to the quick--in modes

Dismal day, with the weather inclement.
Inconsolably rivulets run
Down the porch in front of the doorway;
Through my wide-open windows they come.
