Сторінка 403 - The valley that thou seest, said he, is the vale of misery, and the tide of water that thou seest is part of the great tide of eternity.

Сторінка 117 - Our ships are laden with the harvest of every climate. Our tables are stored with spices and oils and wines. Our rooms are filled with pyramids of China, and adorned with the workmanship of Japan. Our morning's draught comes to us from the remotest corners of the earth.
