For two centuries, the history of the British possessions
From the time of the consul Mummius, who
From what has now been said, gentlemen

Full of knowledge and wisdom, tried in the great struggles

GENERAL LABOISSIERE, who led the van

Gentlemen, I stand up in this contest against the friends

HARD by the banks of the Tiber

He held likewise the immortality of the soul
Hence that unexampled unanimity which distinguishes
Here at our feet lay the Trasimene .

He resolved, in the gloomy recesses of a mind
Here, therefore, we are to enter upon one.

Here was a trial, painful, unexpected, sudden
He saw all his mistakes at last

He sketched his various wars, victories, and treaties of peace

He was an honourable man, and a sound politician
He was deeply learned, without possessing useful knowledge.
He was slenderly furnished with fancy

His mind was in a painful state of perplexity

His powerful intellect was ill supplied with knowledge
His splendid military successes, so gratifying to Castilian
Horace is the poet who is most frequently in our hands.
How much he lived in Homer's poetical world.
How to negotiate with a perfect skill never degenerating

I am not, nor did I ever pretend to be, a statesman
I am very sorry to hear you treat philosophy

I annex a long thought in verse .

I believe since my coming into this world.

I believe the duties of the Governor-General
I call heaven and earth to witness, gentlemen
I confess my notions are widely different.

If he who was long the accepted champion

If, in the first formation of a civil society

If liberty, after being extinguished on the Continent

If tears are arguments of cowardice

I have always been an idle man.

I have not been considering it

I have now changed the scene from the town

I have often been astonished.

I have often been thinking that this voyage to Italy.

338

I have often thought with myself, that I went on too far
I have perused many of their books

In Cicero's extant correspondence we seem to be present
In consequence of this double game

In England we have not yet been completely embowelled
In order to prove to any one the grandness

252

In proportion as the years both lessen and shorten
Instead of a monarch, jealous, severe, and avaricious.
In such a predicament braver soldiers might well .
In summer, when the road is well cleared
In that part of Upper Saxony beyond the Elbe
In the beginning of the action, the son of Decius.

In the first stages of the decline and fall of the Roman empire

In truth his Grace is somewhat excusable for his dislike

It hath been noted by divers, that Homer in Poesie

It is very hard that because you do not get my letters

It was natural that some should follow their imagination

It was on the morning of this fatal day
It was the funeral-day of the late man
I will consult my safety so far as I think

MADAME,-For your sake I have examined the Valentin
Man was ever a creature separated from all others
Meanwhile the curia was abandoned by the living
Meanwhile Titus advanced his engines
Monmouth had hitherto done his part

Moreover, brutes differ from men in this

Mr. Grenville was bred to the law

Mr. Sheridan saw nothing great, nothing magnanimous
Much of the subsequent clamour in England
Mucian's speech in Tacitus contains many important
My Dear Friend,-You have my hearty thanks
My dream commenced with a music

Of all the men that live in history, there is none
Of those who wish for peace, there are two classes
One great cause of our insensibility to the goodness
One hundred and fifty years after the reign of Honorius
One of the best methods of rendering study agreeable
One of these explosions of entire summits

One would not indeed covet any satisfactions in this life
On the other hand, if, leaving the works of nature
On the other side, the king's men were not wanting
On the second day after his landing

On the 10th March, the day preceding the fatal night
Our forefathers still live among us in the records .

PASSING political events are matters of importance
Patriotism is, perhaps, not properly to be considered
Penal laws, it must be allowed, secure property
Perhaps there is no more impressive scene
Perhaps there never was a time when augury
Poetry, as distinguished from other modes
Poetry, I take it, is as universally contagious
Polybius. You will listen to me if I adduce

SEEING the foe in front, he marched on
Since I last wrote to you we have been to Como
Since last I had the honour of addressing you

Sir Clement tells me you will shortly come to town
Sir, I am perfectly sensible of the very flattering
Slowly and stealthily the Indians advanced . .
So great is the uncertainty of posthumous reputation
So great was the disparity of numbers

Soldiers! I partake of your chagrin, your grief

Sometimes the quarrel between two princes.

Stephen would have been regarded by all men

Such a state of society already trembled

Such brave words as these, so many vigorous

Such was the care with which

TAKE again the case of persons of little intellect

That system of morality, even in the times

That there should be more species

That we should love the land of our birth
The ancient and modern Epicureans

230

The ancient statesmen well knew the advantages

262

The anxiety of Attila prompted him to consult

76

The argument of design is.

233

The culprit was indeed not unworthy

The death of Nelson was felt in England

The democracy of Athens may be regarded
The Druids were eminent above all.

The Duke of Alva was inferior to no general of his age

The mention of this man has moved me

The mode of attack which Archidamus chiefly relied

The monarch took part in the procession.

The Moors, unshaken by the fury of this assault
The mystery of holy shrines lies deep

The name of Shakespeare is the greatest
The Pallas Athene, like other Olympians

The peace of Constance presented a noble opportunity
The perfect historian is he in whose work
The place was worthy of such a trial

The practical use of philosophy, according to Lucretius
The present town of Carthagena

There was a panic. The whole royal cavalry wavered
There was a silence both in the city and in the field
