Strana 203 - The times have been That, when the brains were out, the man would die, And there an end ; but now they rise again, With twenty mortal murders on their crowns, And push us from our stools.
Strana 81 - Were such things here, as we do speak about? Or have we eaten of the insane root, That takes the reason prisoner ? Macb.
Strana 367 - Where slaves once more their native land behold, No fiends torment, no Christians thirst for gold. To Be, contents his natural desire, He asks no Angel's wing, no Seraph's fire; But thinks, admitted to that equal sky, His faithful dog shall bear him company.
Strana 287 - That's truly great. What think you 'twas set up The Greek and Roman name in such a lustre, But doing right, in stern despite to Nature, Shutting their ears to all her little cries, When great, august, and godlike justice call'd...
