Fading and false is the aspect it wears, As the smiles we put on — just to cover our tears ; And the withering thoughts which the world cannot know, Like heart-broken exiles, lie burning below ; While the vessel drives on to that desolate shore Where the dreams of our childhood are vanished and o'er.

Página 25 - A mere plodding boy was above all others encouraged by him. At Laleham he had once got out of patience, and spoken sharply to a pupil of this kind, when the pupil looked up in his face and said, " Why do you speak angrily, sir ?— indeed I am doing the best that I can.
