Strana 21 - However, that you may not be forced to recollect how I have formerly tired you, I will repeat, that, with one of the honestest hearts in the world, he has one of the oddest heads that ever dropped out of the moon.

Strana 408 - I could not escape from myself the charge of advancing a false claim. My journey to the continent, though I once thought it...
Strana 266 - No music warbles through the grove, No vivid colours paint the plain ; No more with devious steps I rove Through verdant paths now sought in vain.
Strana 360 - Omai will be able to introduce many of our arts and customs amongst them, or much improve those to which they have been long habituated. I am confident, however, that he will endeavour to bring to perfection the various fruits and vegetables we planted, which will be no small acquisition. But the greatest benefit these islands are likely to receive...
Strana 259 - Hume's company, and then his only attempt at merriment consisted in his display of a drawing too indecently gross to have delighted, even in a brothel.
