Thus if first bodies be, as I have taught,
Solid, without a void, they must be then
Eternal; and, if matter ne'er had been
Eternal, long ere now had all things gone
Back into nothing utterly, and all
We see around from nothing had been born--
But since I taught above that naught can be
From naught created, nor the once begotten
To naught be
summoned
back, these primal germs
Must have an immortality of frame.

Not for thy faults, but mine; it is a curse
To understand, not feel, thy lyric flow,
To comprehend, but never love thy verse,
Although no deeper

Our little life, nor bard prescribe his art,
Nor livelier satirist the conscience pierce,
Awakening without wounding the touched heart,
Yet fare thee well--upon Soracte's ridge we part.

silly:--
That, as the traveller does not appropriate the route which he
traverses, so the farmer does not appropriate the field which he sows;
That if, nevertheless, by reason of his industry, a laborer may
appropriate the material which he employs, every employer of material
becomes, by the same title, a proprietor;
That all capital, whether material or mental, being the result of
collective labor, is, in consequence, collective property;
That the strong have no right to
encroach
upon the labor of the weak,
nor the shrewd to take advantage of the credulity of the simple;
Finally, that no one can be forced to buy that which he does not want,
still less to pay for that which he has not bought; and, consequently,
that the exchangeable value of a product, being measured neither by the
opinion of the buyer nor that of the seller, but by the amount of time

venaient mourir aux pieds des premiers plissements de ses beaux cheveux
noirs qui couraient en chaînes mouvementées, soulevaient leurs
contreforts escarpés et modelaient les ondulations de leurs vallées, je
dus me dire: «Enfin, n'y ayant pas réussi à Balbec, je vais savoir le
goût de la rose
inconnue

The brief with weighty crimes was charged,
On which the pleader much enlarged:
That Cupid now has lost his art,
Or blunts the point of every dart;

And bring in doubt their powers divine,
Now love is dwindled to intrigue,
And
marriage
grown a money-league.

See, where on high the moving masses, piled
By the wind, break in groups
grotesque
and wild,
Present strange shapes to view;
Oft flares a pallid flash from out their shrouds,
As though some air-born giant 'mid the clouds
Sudden his falchion drew.
