Стр. 58 - IT is a noble and just advantage that the things subjected to understanding have of those which are objected to sense; that the one sort are but momentary, and merely taking; the other impressing, and lasting : else the glory of all these solemnities had perished like a blaze, and gone out in the beholders
Стр. 300 - O mihi turn longae maneat pars ultima vitae, spiritus et quantum sat erit tua dicere facta : non me carminibus vincet nee Thracius Orpheus, 55 nee Linus, huic mater quamvis atque huic pater adsit, Orphei Calliopea, Lino formosus Apollo.
Стр. xxviii - In curious knots and mazes so, The Spring, at first, was taught to go ; And Zephyr, when he came" to woo His Flora, had their motions too : And thus did Venus learn to lead The Idalian brawls, and so to tread As if the wind, not she, did walk, Nor pressed a flower, nor bowed a stalk.
Стр. 36 - First, for the scene, was drawn a Umtifadjap (landscape) consisting of small woods, and here and there a void place filled with huntings ; which falling, an artificial sea was seen to shoot forth, as if it flowed to the land, raised with waves which seemed to move, and in some places the billows to break, as imitating that orderly disorder which is common in nature.

Стр. 319 - Hunting, it is the noblest exercise, Makes men laborious, active, wise, Brings health, and doth the spirits delight, It helps the hearing and the sight : It teacheth arts that never slip The memory, good horsemanship, Search, sharpness, courage, and defence, And chaseth all ill habits thence.
Стр. 110 - On the ground, to hear the mandrake groan : And pluck'd him up, though he grew full low ; And, as I had done, the cock did crow.
