1600Jerusalem DeliveredClad in rare weeds and strange habiliment, | A nymph, for age able to go to man, | An hundred plants beside, even in his sight, | Childed an hundred nymphs, so great, so dight.1893The Prince of IndiaThere must be in every heart a store of prevision of which we are not aware—occasions bring it out with such sudden and bewildering effect. Everything—hymn, tolling bell, lights, boys, friars, procession—was accessory to that veiled, slow-marching figure. And in habiliment, movement, air, with what telling force it impersonated sorrow! On the other hand, how deep and consuming the sorrow itself must be!Labels: Lew Wallace, Torquato Tasso
