עמוד 190 - And now the downy cheek and deepen'd voice Gave dignity to Edwin's blooming prime ; And walks of wider circuit were his choice, And vales more wild, and mountains more sublime. One evening, as he framed the...
עמוד 100 - I find, would have been concluded without an IF, had you been as ready to do justice to others as to exact it from them.
עמוד 190 - Superior to the power Of all the warring winds of heaven they rise, And from the stormy promontory tower, And toss their giant arms amid the skies, While each assailing blast increase of strength supplies.
עמוד 419 - 5 emperors, hut especially of Verus, Commodus, and Antoninus Pius. Among the Persians most of the temples were caverns in rocks, either formed by nature, or artificially produced.
