Сторінка 44 - The Pythagorean scale of numbers' was at once discovered to be perfect; but the poems of Homer we yet know not to transcend the common limits of human intelligence, but by remarking, that nation after nation, and century after century, has been able to do little more than transpose his incidents, new name his characters, and paraphrase his sentiments.
Сторінка 173 - Shakespeare engaged in dramatic poetry with the world open before him. The rules of the ancients were yet known to few; the public judgment was unformed ; he had no example of such fame as might force him upon imitation, nor critics of such authority as might restrain his extravagance.

Сторінка 86 - The labour and fatigue of the navy have been continued and excessive ; it has not been of one day or of one week, but for months together. In the bay of Aboukir, on the New Inundation, and on the Nile, for 160 miles, they have been employed without intermission ; and have submitted to many privations, with a cheerfulness and patience highly creditable to them, and advantageous to the public service.
Сторінка 27 - ... that all books of history concerning the state of this realm, or other books concerning any affairs of state, shall be licensed by the Principal Secretaries of State for the time being or one of them, or by their or one of their appointments...
