Сторінка 260 - The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together: our virtues would be proud if our faults whipped them not ; and our crimes would despair if they were not cherished by our virtues.
Сторінка 289 - GOING TO THE WARS Tell me not, Sweet, I am unkind That from the nunnery Of thy chaste breast and quiet mind, To war and arms I fly. True, a new mistress now I chase, The first foe in the field; And with a stronger faith embrace A sword, a horse, a shield. Yet this inconstancy is such As you too shall adore; I could not love thee, dear, so much, Loved I not honour more.

Сторінка 291 - She was a very beautiful woman, of a noble spirit ; and there was a dignity in her grief amidst all the wildness of her transport, which, methought, struck me with an instinct of sorrow...
Сторінка 149 - I had only known that these legs were one day to carry a Lord Chancellor, I'd have taken better care of them when I was a lad.
Сторінка 122 - The sight of a place where I had not been for many years revived in my thoughts the tender images of my childhood, which by a great length of time had contracted a softness that rendered them inexpressibly agreeable.
