Night drew her sable curtain down, and pinned it with a star. - [Night] The heart must be at rest before the mind, like a quiet lake under an unclouded summer evening, can reflect the solemn starlight and the splendid mysteries of heaven. - [Heart] While twilight's curtain gathering far, Is pinned with a single diamond star. - Death in Disguise (l. 227) [Stars] Whilst twilight's curtain spreading far Was pinned with a single star. - Death in Disguise (l. 227), as it appeared in Boston ed. 1733 [Stars] The sun had sunk and the summer skies Were dotted with specks of light That melted soon in the deep moon-rise That flowed over Groton Height. - The Graveyard [Moon] From the looks--not the lips, is the soul reflected. - The Rejected Lover [Soul] Ha! see where the wild-blazing Grog-Shop appears, As the red waves of wretchedness swell, How it burns on the edge of tempestuous years The horrible Light-House of Hell! - The Rum Hole [Intemperance]
