Arose, and it shall set; While, blazoned as on heaven's immortal noon, The cross leads generations on. 442 SHELLEY: _Hellas,_ Line 221. =Crowd.= Far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife Their sober wishes never learn'd to stray. 443 GRAY: _Elegy,_ St. 19. =Crown.= Upon my head they placed a fruitless crown, And put a barren sceptre in my gripe. 444 SHAKS.: _Macbeth,_ Act iii., Sc. 1. What seem'd his head The likeness of a kingly crown had on. Satan was now at hand. 445 MILTON: _Par. Lost,_ Bk. ii., Line 666. |
