Сторінка 450 - If you can look into the seeds of time, And say, which grain will grow, and which will not, Speak then to me, who neither beg, nor fear, Your favours, nor your hate.
Сторінка 189 - Shakspeare, that none of them, as far as we know, have ever thought of availing themselves of his sonnets for tracing the circumstances of his life. These sonnets paint most unequivocally the actual situation and sentiments of the poet; they enable us to become acquainted with the passions of the man; they even contain the most remarkable confessions of his youthful errors.
Сторінка 40 - But touch me, and no minister so sore. Whoe'er offends, at some unlucky time Slides into verse, and hitches in a rhyme, Sacred to ridicule his whole life long, And the sad burthen of some merry song.
Сторінка 398 - How beautiful is all this visible world ! How glorious in its action and itself; But we, who name ourselves its sovereigns, we, Half dust, half deity...
Сторінка 222 - From the very brink of the river there rises a gentle slope of green sward, crowned in many places with a plentiful growth of birch, poplar, beech, elm, and oak. Is it too much for the eye of philanthropy to discern, through the vista of futurity, this noble stream, connecting as it does the fertile shores of two spacious lakes, with crowded steamboats on its bosom, and populous towns on its borders " ? — I speak of the bank of the river there.

Сторінка 479 - ... eye as immediately returned to contemplate the awful destruction that threatened in one short hour to close the world, and all its hopes and joys and sorrows, upon us for ever. In this our deep distress we called upon the Lord, and He heard our voices out of His temple, and our cry came before Him...
Сторінка 479 - ... against the precipitous faces of the bergs; now lifting them nearly to their summit, then forcing them again far beneath their water-line, and sometimes rending them into a multitude of brilliant fragments against their projecting points. Sublime and magnificent as such a scene must have appeared under different circumstances, to us it was awful, if not appalling.

Сторінка 291 - I'll take good care it shall never get in again ;' and I may well say the same of this parchment usurper who has taken possession of my stomach. How he got there is the wonder, for years have elapsed since I swallowed glue — I mean jelly or mockturtle.
Сторінка 88 - The gardens of the Mandarins in the city of Ning-po are very pretty and unique ; they contain a choice selection of the ornamental trees and shrubs of China, and generally a considerable number of dwarf trees.
