FEELING.
Sweet sensibility! thou keen delight!
Unprompted moral! sudden sense of right!
Sensibility. H. MORE.
Feeling is deep and still; and the word that floats on the surface
Is as the tossing buoy, that betrays where the anchor is hidden.
Evangeline, Pt. II. Sc. 2. H.W. LONGFELLOW.
'Twere vain to tell thee all I feel,
Or say for thee I'd die.
'Twere Vain to Tell. J.A. WADE.
And inasmuch as feeling, the East's gift,
Is quick and transient,—comes, and lo! is gone,
While Northern thought is slow and durable.
Luria, Act v. R. BROWNING.
Great thoughts, great feelings came to them,
Like instincts, unawares.
The Men of Old. R.M. MILNES, LORD HOUGHTON.
