الصفحة 177 - Majesty asked what I thought of my new acquaintance, Lord Dartmouth ? I said, there was something in his air -and manner which I thought not only agreeable, but enchanting, and that he seemed to me to be one of the best of men; a sentiment in which both their Majesties heartily joined. ' They say that Lord Dartmouth is an enthusiast,' said the King, ' but surely he says nothing on the subject of religion, but what every Christian may, and ought to say.
الصفحة 343 - But if there would be a manifest absurdity in turning towards any employment thirty times more of the capital and industry of the country than would be necessary to purchase from foreign countries an equal quantity of the commodities wanted, there must be an absurdity, though not altogether so glaring, yet exactly of the same kind, in turning towards any such employment a thirtieth, or even a three hundredth part more of either.
الصفحة 135 - I do declare that I do not believe that the Pope of Rome or any other foreign prince, prelate, person, state, or potentate, hath or ought to have any temporal or civil jurisdiction, power, superiority, or pre-eminence, directly or indirectly, within this realm.

الصفحة 176 - ... was a book they always kept by them; and the king said he had one copy of it at Kew, and another in town, and immediately went and took it down from a shelf. I found it was the second edition. 'I never stole a book but one,' said his Majesty, ' and that was yours (speaking to me) ; I stole it from the queen, to give it to Lord Hertford to read.
الصفحة 187 - Be it so : but this advantage is not without inconveniences, sufficient, perhaps, to counterbalance it, When a European arrives in any remot.e part of the globe, the natives, if they know any thing of his country, will be apt to form no favourable opinion of his intentions, with regard to their liberties ; if they know nothing of him, they will yet keep aloof, on account of his strange language, complexion, and accoutrements.
