=Damnation.=
And deal damnation round the land. 464 POPE: _The Universal Prayer,_ St. 7. =Damsel.= A damsel with a dulcimer In a vision once I saw. 465 COLERIDGE: _Kubla Khan._ =Dancing.= Alike all ages: dames of ancient days Have led their children through the mirthful maze: And the gay grandsire, skill'd in gestic lore, Has frisk'd beneath the burden of threescore. 466 GOLDSMITH: _Traveller,_ Line 251. Her feet beneath her petticoat, Like little mice, stole in and out, As if they feared the light; But, oh! she dances such a way! No sun upon an Easter-day Is half so fine a sight. |
