Сторінка 41 - To-morrow, ere fresh morning streak the east With first approach of light, we must be risen, And at our pleasant labour to reform Yon flowery arbours, yonder alleys green, Our walk at noon, with branches overgrown, That mock our scant manuring...

All these qualifications for a biographer and an historian she has brought to bear upon the subject of her volumes, and from them has resulted a narrative interesting to all, and more particularly interesting to that portion of the community to whom the more refined researches of literature afford pleasure and instruction....
Сторінка 9 - The best collection of authentic memorials relative to the Queen of Scots that has ever appeared.
Сторінка 5 - THE LIFE OF WILLIAM THE CONQUEROR, In neat royal duodecimo, extra cloth, or fancy paper. "The historical reader will find this a work of peculiar interest. It displays throughout the most pains-taking research, and a style of narrative which has all the lucidity and strength o( Gibbon.
