الصفحة 232 - In our own English compositions, (at least for the last three years of our school education), he showed no mercy to phrase, metaphor, or image, unsupported by a sound sense, or where the same sense might have been conveyed with equal force and dignity in plainer words. Lute, harp, and lyre, muse, muses, and inspirations, Pegasus, Parnassus, and Hippocrene were all an abomination to him.
الصفحة 214 - Stood in himself collected, while each part, Motion, each act won audience ere the tongue...
الصفحة 238 - When from thy cheerful eyes a ray Hath struck a bliss upon the day, A bliss that would not go away, A sweet fore-warning?
الصفحة 238 - A month or more hath she been dead, Yet cannot I by force be led To think upon the wormy bed, And her together.
الصفحة 241 - What gesture shall we appropriate to this ? What has the voice or the eye to do with such things ? But the play is beyond all art, as the tamperings with it shew : it is too hard and stony : it must have love-scenes, and a happy ending.

الصفحة 240 - Lear is not in corporeal dimension, but in intellectual : the explosions of his passion are terrible as a volcano : they are storms turning up and disclosing to the bottom that sea, his mind, with all its vast riches. It is his mind which is laid bare. This case of flesh and blood seems too insignificant to be thought on ; even as he himself neglects it. On the stage we see nothing but corporeal infirmities and weakness, the impotence of rage ; while we read it, we see not Lear, but we are Lear —...
الصفحة 231 - He early moulded my taste to the preference of Demosthenes to Cicero, of Homer and Theocritus to Virgil, and again of Virgil to Ovid. He habituated me to compare Lucretius (in such extracts as I then read), Terence, and, above all, the chaster poems of Catullus, not only with the Roman poets of the...
الصفحة 4 - Lord, thou knowest how happy it were for me to be with thee; yet for thy chosen's sake send me life and health, that I may truly serve thee. O my Lord God, bless thy people, and save thine inheritance ! O Lord God, save thy chosen people of England ! O my Lord God, defend this realm from papistry, and maintain thy true religion, that I and my people may praise thy holy name, for thy son Jesus Christ's sake...
