Стр. 105 - Or, in the night, imagining some fear, How easy is a bush supposed a bear ! Hip.
Стр. 19 - The king has lately been pleased to make me Professor of Ancient History in a royal Academy of Painting, which he has just established, but there is no salary annexed ; and I took it rather as a compliment to the institution than any benefit to myself. Honours to one in my situation are something like ruffles to a man that wants a shirt.
