Strana 328 - Homo Naturae minister, et interpres, tantum facit et intelligit quantum de Naturae ordine re vel mente observaverit : nee amplius sit, aut potest.
Strana 290 - The oracles are dumb ; No voice or hideous hum Runs through the arched roof in words deceiving ; Apollo from his shrine Can no more divine, With hollow shriek the steep of Delphos leaving ; No nightly trance, or breathed spell, Inspires the pale-eyed priest from the prophetic cell.
Strana 339 - could not increase either my fame or my happiness. It might undoubtedly enable me to put four horses to my carriage ; but what would it avail me to have it said that Sir Humphry drives his carriage and four?

I perhaps owe to these circumstances the little talents that I have, and their peculiar application. What I am I have made myself; I say this without vanity, and in pure simplicity of heart !" And we dare say that Davy was right.
Strana 488 - In a few cases it has been necessary to increase the quantity of turpentine to an ounce and a half or two ounces in the above mixture, the other ingredients being proportionally diminished so that a drachm and a half or two drachms of it may be taken each time ; but, in general, when administered to the extent directed in this formula, it has very seldom indeed failed, though extensively tried, and in very urgent cases. Mr. Foote relates five cases, all of which occurred at the Westminster Ophthalmic...
