עמוד 380 - ... for action. You well know, gentlemen, how soon one of those stupendous masses, now reposing on their shadows in perfect stillness, — how soon, upon any call of patriotism or of necessity, it would assume the likeness of an animated...
עמוד 63 - His fall was destined to a barren strand, A petty fortress, and a dubious hand; He left the name, at which the world grew pale, To point a moral, or adorn a tale.
עמוד 120 - What then I was. The sounding cataract Haunted me like a Passion! the tall rock, The mountain, and the deep and gloomy wood, Their colours and their forms, were then to me An appetite! a feeling and a love That had no need of a remoter charm, By thought supplied; or any interest Unborrowed from the eye!
עמוד 131 - Historical Researches on the Wars and Sports of the Mongols and Romans ; in which Elephants and Wild Beasts were employed or slain : and the remarkable local agreement of History with the remains of such Animals found in Europe and Siberia.
עמוד 380 - You well know, Gentlemen, how soon one of those stupendous masses, now reposing on their shadows in perfect stillness ; how soon, upon any call of patriotism or of necessity, it would assume the likeness of an animated thing, instinct with life and motion ; how soon it would ruffle, as it were, its swelling plumage ; how quickly it would put forth all its beauty and its bravery, collect its scattered elements of strength, and awaken its dormant thunder.

עמוד 139 - A shout, that tore hell's concave, and beyond Frighted the reign of Chaos and old Night.

עמוד 139 - Breathing united force with fixed thought Moved on in silence to soft pipes that charmed Their painful steps o'er the burnt soil; and now Advanced in view they stand, a horrid* front Of dreadful length and dazzling arms, in guise Of warriors old, with ordered spear and shield, Awaiting what command their mighty chief Had to impose.
עמוד 67 - Ask for what end the heavenly bodies shine, Earth for whose use? Pride answers, "Tis for mine: For me kind nature wakes her genial power, Suckles each herb, and spreads out every flower; Annual for me, the grape, the rose renew The juice nectareous, and the balmy dew; For me, the mine a thousand treasures brings ; For me, health gushes from a thousand springs ; Seas roll to waft me, suns to light me rise; My footstool earth, my canopy the skies.
עמוד 116 - ... mistaken as I have been in my public and private hopes, calculating others from myself, and calculating wrong; always disappointed where I placed most reliance ; the dupe of friendship, and the fool of love ; have I not reason to hate and to despise myself? Indeed I do ; and chiefly for not having hated and despised the world enough*.
