עמוד 89 - At the outset all was dark and doubtful ; even the title of the work, the true sera of the decline and fall of the empire, the limits of the introduction, the division of the chapters, and the order of the narrative ; and I was often tempted to cast away the labour of seven years.
עמוד 224 - ... if there be found in his book one sentence of a venturous edge, uttered in the height of zeal, and who knows whether it might not be the dictate of a divine spirit...
