a. 1817. J. P. Curran, in W. H. Curran, Life (1822), II. 169. When I recollect the strong incitement that I felt as an observer or an actor, can I hope to subside into that unfevered moderation, without which I can scarcely be competent to the task of reviewing or recording them?
1850. Sarah A. Nowell, Poems, 26.
| And Joy to that unfevered lip, was opening all her store,— | |
| DEATH dashed away the proffered cup, and thy young dream was o’er. | |
| Ibid. 35. | |
| Joy, that on thy unfevered brow | |
| The light shall ne’er grow dim— | |
| Joy! that thy God hath taken thee, | |
| Beloved one! to HIM! |
1855. Sir A. De Vere, Tr. & Cr., in Poems, 108.
| Had I been worthy of the love you gave, | |
| That love withdrawn had left me sad but strong: | |
| My heart had been as silent as my tongue; | |
| My bed had been unfevered as my grave: | |
| I had not striven for what I could not save. |
19[?]. Sheila Wingfield, Poems, 23.
| As after steaming plains, the mountain’s chill | |
| Renews us: so do we, who have been ill | |
| With love, awake at last unfevered, sane | |
| As limpid air that has been washed by rain. |
