smelling salts to bring her mother out of her faint; Gregor wanted
to help too - he could save his picture later,
although
he stuck
fast to the glass and had to pull himself off by force; then he,

round; a bottle fell to the ground and broke; a splinter cut

now, without delaying any longer, Grete took hold of all the bottles
she could and ran with them in to her mother; she slammed the door

The medium through which poetry
works is the world of
sensible
objects—wine and oil, the cedar
of Lebanon, the young lion, the moon, the cloud, the smoking
hills, the wild goat, the coney and the stork; or, if we turn to
Homer rather than the Psalmist, a plane-tree, the bright water
of a spring, a snake blood-red on the back, the cheeping brood of
a sparrow, or beaked ships and well-greaved Achaians.

The fireflies light the

panther's way
To tangled paths where shy gazelles are straying,
And parrot-plumes outshine the dying day.

Like
noiseless
snow, or as the dew of night;
Not all at once, but gently,--as the trees
Are by the sun-beams, tickled by degrees.

But
peaceful
was the night
Wherin the Prince of Light
His reign of peace upon the earth began:
The winds, with wonder whist,
Smoothly the waters kist
Whispering new joys to the mild ocean--
Who now hath quite forgot to rave,
While birds of calm sit brooding on the charmed wave.

T' endure, to act the other, through meet frame
Of its recipient mould: that being reach'd,
It 'gins to work, coagulating first;
Then vivifies what its own

To bear.
