Сторінка 83 - Formerly, chastity was the honour of women, and good faith and integrity the honour of men : but now, a lady who ruins her family by. punctually paying her losses at play, and a gentleman who kills his best friend in some trifling frivolous quarrel, are your only tip- top people of < honour.
Сторінка 106 - Nobson, That he, the said Nobson, did cut down a tree, value two-pence, and to his own use said tree did convert. — Nobson justifies, and claims tree as his tree. We will, gentlemen, first state the probable evidence, and then come to the positive : and first as to the probable. — When was this tree here belonging to Hobson, and...
Сторінка 213 - And why so, Mr. Mayor? Mayor. I don't know — they do a mortal deal of harm in the country : why, wherever any of them settles, it raises the price of provisions for thirty miles round.

Сторінка 17 - I had been for some time on very hard duty in this part of the world. Inv. Of what kind ? Devil. The Daemon of Power and I had long laid siege to a subject, the man a grandee. I was then a popular spirit, and wore the mask of a patriot ; at different times, we possessed him by turns ; but, in the midst of a violent struggle (by which means I got lame on this leg, and obtained the nick-name of the Devil Upon Two Sticks...
Сторінка 348 - How could you say my face was fair, And yet that face forsake? How could you win my virgin heart, Yet leave that heart to break?
Сторінка 71 - Nay, though he is active, and eternally busy, yet his own private affairs are neglected ; and he would not scruple to break an appointment that was to determine a considerable part of his property, in order to exchange a couple of hounds for a lord, or to buy a pad-nag for a lady.
