le, he
never lost sight of it
Sea-port was connected with Medina by a
pigeon-post
Seditious words are like sparks, which
are borne by the wind
See facts as they are and treat them
like figures in a sum
Seems most charming at the time we are
obliged to resign it
Self-interest and egoism which drive
him into the cave
Sent for a second interpreter
Shadow which must ever fall where there
is light
Shadow of the candlestick caught her
eye before the light
She would not purchase a few more years
of valueless life
Shipwrecked on the cliffs of 'better'
and 'best'
Should I be a man, if I forgot
vengeance?
Shuns the downward glance of compassion
Sing their libels on women (Greek
Philosophers)
Sky as bare of cloud as the rocks are

Tender and uncouth natural sounds,
which no language knows
That tears were the best portion of all
human life
The heart must not be filled by
another's image
The blessing of those who are more than
they seem
The past belongs to the dead; only
fools count upon the future
The priests are my opponents, my
masters
The carp served on Christmas eve in
every Berlin family
The gods cast envious glances at the
happiness of mortals
The past must stand; it is like a scar
The man who avoids his kind and lives
in solitude
The beautiful past is all he has to
live upon
The altar where truth is mocked at
The older one grows the quicker the
hours hurry away
The shirt is closer than the coat
The beginning of things is not more
attractive
The mother of foresight looks b
