الصفحة 66 - ... we have been contemplating. It is not of toys, of nursery books, of summer holidays (fitting that age) ; of the promised sight or play ; of praised sufficiency at school.

With varying vanities, from every part, They shift the moving Toyshop of their heart; Where wigs with wigs, with sword-knots sword-knots strive, Beaux banish beaux, and coaches coaches drive.
الصفحة 154 - the doing good to mankind, in obedience to the will of God, and for the sake of everlasting happiness.
الصفحة 133 - As for the philosophers, they make imaginary laws for imaginary commonwealths, and their discourses are as the stars, which give little light because they are so high.
الصفحة 39 - ... has neither moral dignity, nor intellectual nor organic strength, to resist the seductions of appetite. His wife and children, too frequently subjected to the same process, are unable to cheer his remaining moments of leisure.
الصفحة 229 - But the contest without a piano was like the play of Hamlet with the part of Hamlet left out.
الصفحة 306 - Jovemque concilias, tu das epulis accumbere divom, nimborumque facis tempestatumque potentem.' 80 Haec ubi dicta, cavum conversa cuspide montem impulit in latus : ac venti, velut agmine facto, qua data porta, ruunt et terras turbine perflant...
