Eternal smiles his emptiness betray,As shallow streams run dimpling all the way.
How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
What nature wants, commodious gold bestows;'Tis thus we cut the bread another sows.
Then marble, soften'd into life, grew warm.
Give me again my hollow treeA crust of bread, and liberty!
Sure if they cannot cut, it may be saidHis saws are toothless, and his hatchets lead.
With a smile on her lips, and a tear in her eye.
A tender smile, our sorrows' only balm.
For smiles from reason flowTo brute deny'd, and are of love the food.
Whence that three-cornered smile of bliss?Three angels gave me at once a kiss.
When you call me that, smile!
But owned that smile, if oft observed and near,Waned in its mirth, and wither'd to a sneer.
Reproof on her lip, but a smile in her eye.
A sweet smile and a soft word have usually their desired effect.
Comrades, this man has a nice smile, but he's got iron teeth.
From thy own smile I snatched the snake.
