Сторінка 221 - Since once I sat upon a promontory, And heard a mermaid on a dolphin's back Uttering such dulcet and harmonious breath. That the rude sea grew civil at her song, And certain stars shot madly from their spheres, To hear the sea-maid's music.

Сторінка 222 - The Daughter of Debate, that eke discord doth sow, Shall reap no gain where former rule hath taught still peace to grow No foreign banished wight shall anchor in this port; Our realm it brooks no stranger's force, let them elsewhere resort. Our rusty sword with rest shall first his edge employ, To poll their tops that seek such change and gape for joy.
Сторінка 106 - This judgment I have of you, that you will not be corrupted with any manner of gift and that you will be faithful to the State, and that without respect of my private will, you will give me that counsel that you think best...
Сторінка 8 - God of His infinite goodness send prosperous life and long to the high and mighty princess of England, Elizabeth!
Сторінка 190 - I know no reason why any my private answers to the realm should serve for prologue to a subsidy vote ; neither yet do I understand why such audacity should be used to make without my licence an Act of my words.
