עמוד 55 - Judea weeps: Now scantier limits the proud arch confine, And scarce are seen the prostrate Nile or Rhine : A small Euphrates through the piece is roll'd, And little eagles wave their wings in gold.
עמוד 64 - ... world fall down before them. You have here, too, several persons of a more thin and shadowy nature, as Hope, Constancy, Fidelity, Abundance, Honour, Virtue, Eternity, Justice, Moderation, Happiness, and in short a whole creation of the like imaginary substances. To these you may add the genius of nations, provinces, cities, highways, and the like allegorical beings.
