last decays . Prevailing warmth has still thy mind posseft , And second youth is ...

עמוד 255
And indeed we may every where observe in Ovid , that he never fails of a due
loftiness in his idea , though he wants it in his words . And this I think infinitely
better than to have sublime expressions and mean thoughts , which is generally
the ...

עמוד 258
Several have endeavoured to vindicate Ovid against the old objection , that he
mistakes the annual for the diurnal motion of the fun . The Dauphin ' s notes tell
us that Ovid knew very well the sun did not pass through all the signs he names
in ...

עמוד 259
I wonder none of Ovid ' s commentators have taken notice of the oversight he has
committed in this verse , where he makes the Triones grow warm before there
was ever such a sign in the heavens ; for he tells us in this very book , that Jupiter

עמוד xxxvi - There taught us how to live; and (oh! too high The price for knowledge) taught us how to die.
עמוד xxxv - Or dost thou warn poor mortals left behind, A task well suited to thy gentle mind? Oh ! if sometimes thy spotless form descend : To me, thy aid, thou guardian genius, lend ! When rage misguides me, or when fear alarms, When pain distresses, or when pleasure charms, In silent whisperings purer thoughts impart, And turn from ill, a frail and feeble heart ; Lead through the paths thy virtue trod before, Till bliss shall join, nor death can part us more.
עמוד 47 - And the fat olive swell with floods of oil : We envy not the warmer clime, that lies In ten degrees of more indulgent skies...
עמוד 240 - Nor mix the toils of hunting with her ease. But oft would bathe her in the...
עמוד xxxv - From world to world, unweary'd does he fly; Or curious trace the long laborious maze Of heaven's decrees, where wond'ring angels gaze?
עמוד 225 - Ah wretched me ! I now begin too late To find out all the long perplex'd deceit ; It is myself I love, myself I see ; The gay delusion is a part of me. I kindle up the fires by which I burn, And my own beauties from the well return. Whom...
עמוד 31 - What found of brazen wheels, what thunder, fcare, And ftun the reader with the din of war! With fear my fpirits and my blood retire, To fee the feraphs funk in clouds of fire ; But when, with eager fteps, from hence I...
עמוד 51 - I've already troubled you too long, Nor dare attempt a more advent'rous song. My humble verse demands a softer theme, A painted mea,dow, or a purling stream ; Unfit for heroes; whom immortal lays, And lines like Virgil's, or like yours, should praise.
עמוד 209 - The point still buried in the marrow lay. And now his rage, increasing with his pain, Reddens his eyes, and beats in every vein ; Churn'd in his teeth the foamy venom rose, Whilst from his mouth a blast of vapours flows, Such as th' infernal Stygian waters cast ; The plants around him wither in the blast.
עמוד 212 - Long did he live within his new abodes, Ally'd by marriage to the deathless Gods; And, in a fruitful wife's embraces old, A long increase of children's children told: But no frail man, however great or high, Can be concluded blest before he die.
