But who can paint
Like Nature? Can imagination boast,
Amid its gay creation, hues like hers?
This is the very coinage of your brain:
This bodiless creation ecstasy
Is very cunning in.
Nobles by the right of an earlier creation, and priests by the imposition of a mightier hand.
His [Burke's] imperial fancy has laid all Nature under tribute, and has collected riches from every scene of the creation and every walk of art.
Is this a dagger which I see before me,
The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee.
I have thee not, and yet I see thee still.
Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible
To feeling as to sight? or art thou but
A dagger of the mind, a false creation,
Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
Dweller in yon dungeon dark,
Hangman of creation, mark!
Who in widow weeds appears,
Laden with unhonoured years,
Noosing with care a bursting purse,
Baited with many a deadly curse?
Had I been present at the creation, I would have given some useful hints for the better ordering of the universe.
And there began a lang digression
About the lords o' the creation.
But who can paint
Like Nature? Can imagination boast,
Amid its gay creation, hues like hers?
Egeria! sweet creation of some heart
Which found no mortal resting-place so fair
As thine ideal breast.
Final Ruin fiercely drives
Her ploughshare o'er creation.
"Antiquitas saeculi juventus mundi." These times are the ancient times, when the world is ancient, and not those which we account ancient ordine retrogrado, by a computation backward from ourselves.
Creation sleeps! 'T is as the general pulse
Of life stood still, and Nature made a pause,—
An awful pause! prophetic of her end.
Boston State-house is the hub of the solar system. You could n't pry that out of a Boston man if you had the tire of all creation straightened out for a crow-bar.
Of the king's creation you may be; but he who makes a count ne'er made a man.
