On clouds, where Fancy’s beam amusive plays, Shall heedless Hope the towering fabric raise?

Whitehead says: "To me 'twas given to wake th' amusive reed," and Chandler, in his Travels in Greece, speaks of the wind "murmuring amusively among the pines."

Her observations upon the ‘amusive talents’ of Theodore Hook, and his entire devotion to their cultivation, are replete with the soundest wisdom.

So in the cloudless sky, amusive shines The soft and mimic scenery; distant hills 390 That, in refracted light, hang beautiful Beneath the golden car of eve, ere yet The daylight lingering fades.

Earth has her gorgeous towns; the earth-circling sea Has spires and mansions more amusive still— Men's volant homes that measure liquid space On wheel or wing.
