49. His eyes are like the eagle's, yet sometimes
Liker the dove's; and at his will he wins
All hearts with softness, or with spirit awes.
Home—Douglass.
50. There's a cold bearing,
And grave, severe aspect about the man,
That makes our spirits pay him such respect,
As though he dwelt 'neath age's silvery pent-house,
Despite his unripe years.
Fanny Kemble.
