Стр. 302 - The interim of unsweating themselves regularly and convenient rest before meat may both with profit and delight be taken up in recreating and composing their travailed spirits with the solemn and divine harmonies of music, heard or learned either while the skilful organist plies his grave and fancied descant in lofty fugues or the whole symphony with artful and unimaginable touches adorn and grace the well-studied chords of some choice composer — sometimes the lute or soft organ-stop waiting on...

Стр. 204 - Jupiter ;" and, to speak in the same heathen language, we call it the gift of our Apollo, not to be obtained by pains or study, if we are not born to it : for the motions which are studied are never so natural as those which break out in the height of a real passion. Mr. Otway possessed this part as thoroughly as any of the antients or moderns.
Стр. 220 - Oh lasting as those colours may they shine, Free as thy stroke, yet faultless as thy line, New graces yearly like thy works display, Soft without weakness, without glaring gay ; Led by some rule that guides, but not constrains ; And finish 'd more through happiness than pains.
