27,) con-
cerning which he had just been speaking; and after eight days* he took
Peter, James, and John, and went up into a
mountain
alone, and
whilst in prayer suddenly that countenance that was so " marred more
than any man's, and his form more than the sons of men," became
transfigured, and shone as the sun, and his raiment became white as
the light; there were also two others with him in glory, whom Peter
recognised at once as Moses and Elijah; the former had died, and
God had buried him, and concerning his body, Satan had been
rebuked by the archangel Michael when contending with him; and
the other--Elijah, without tasting of death had been caught up to
heaven in a chariot of fire.

And now ensued loud clamour in the hall
And tumult, when Minerva, drawing nigh
To Laertiades, impell'd the Chief
Crusts to collect, or any
pittance
small
At ev'ry suitor's hand, for trial's sake
Of just and unjust; yet deliv'rance none
From evil she design'd for any there.

But a leaf that lingered brown,
Disturbed, I doubt not, by my thought,
Comes softly
rattling
down.

Robert Frost - A Boy's Will |
|
When I used to lie and sing by old Eastwell's boiling spring,
When I used to tie the willow boughs
together
for a swing,
And fish with crooked pins and thread and never catch a thing,
With heart just like a feather, now as heavy as a stone;
When beneath old Lea Close oak I the bottom branches broke
To make our harvest cart like so many working folk,
And then to cut a straw at the brook to have a soak.
