Strana 76 - t, his speech In loftiness of sound was rich, A Babylonish dialect Which learned pedants much affect; It was a parti-colored dress Of patched and piebald languages; Twas English cut on Greek and Latin, Like fustian heretofore on satin; It had an odd promiscuous tone, As if h' had talked three parts in one; Which made some think, when he did gabble, Th' had heard three labourers of Babel, Or Cerberus himself pronounce A leash of languages at once.
Strana 72 - There's but the twinkling of a star Between a man of peace and war, A thief and justice, fool and knave, A huffing officer and a slave, A crafty lawyer and pick-pocket, A great philosopher and a block-head, A formal preacher and a player, A learn'd physician and...
Strana 72 - The laws o' th' land, that were intended 355 To keep it out, are made defend it. Does not in Chanc'ry ev'ry man swear What makes best for him in his answer? Is not the winding up witnesses And nicking more than half the bus'ness...
Strana 72 - Tis with a single hair pull'd out. Others believe no voice t' an organ So sweet as lawyer's in his bar-gown ; Until with subtle cobweb-cheats, Th' are catch'd in knotted law, like nets; In which, when once they are imbrangled,, The more they stir, the more they're tangled ; And while their purses can dispute, There's no end of the immortal suit. Others still gape t' anticipate The cabinet designs of fate, Applying to wizards, to foresee What shall, and what shall never be.
Strana 76 - Th' had heard three labourers of Babel, Or Cerberus himself pronounce A leash of languages at once. This he as volubly would vent As if his stock would ne'er be spent : And truly to support that charge, He had supplies as vast and large; For he could coin or counterfeit New words, with little or no wit...
Strana 91 - Preserv'da grave, majestic state ; At spur or switch no more he skipt Or mended pace, than Spaniard whipt...
Strana 69 - The poem of Hudibras is one of those compositions of which a nation may justly boast ; as the images which it exhibits are domestic, the sentiments unborrowed and unexpected, and the strain of diction original and peculiar. We must not, however, suffer the pride, which we assume as the countrymen of Butler, to make any encroachment upon justice, nor appropriate those honours which others have a right to share. The poem of Hudibras...
Strana 83 - His knowledge was not far behind The Knight's, but of another kind, And he another way came by 't ; Some call it Gifts, and some New-light ; A liberal art, that costs no pains Of study, industry, or brains.
Strana 85 - Than burnish'd armour of her knight -, A bold virago, stout and tall, As Joan of France, or English...
Strana 72 - Will several different courses sail ; As when the sea breaks o'er its bounds, And overflows the level grounds, Those banks and dams, that, like a screen, Did keep it out, now keep it in ; So when tyrannical usurpation Invades the freedom of a nation, The laws o' th' land, that were intended To keep it out, are made defend it.
