Стр. 136 - Hermes' moly, Sibylla's golden bough, the great elixir. Imagined only* by the alchymist, Compared with thee are shadows — thou the substance, And guardian of felicity ! No marvel. My brother made thy place of rest his bosom, Thou being the keeper of his heart, a mistress To be hugg'd ever ! In by-corners of This sacred room, silver in bags, heap'd up Like billets...
Стр. 27 - not " not only a great oppreflion upon the poorer fort, " but a badge of flavery upon the whole people, " expofing every man's houfe to be entered into " and fearched at pleafure, by perfons unknown
Стр. 13 - This being the highest and greatest court over which none other can have jurisdiction in the kingdom, if by any means a misgovernment should any way fall upon it, the subjects of this kingdom are left without all manner of remedy.
Стр. 136 - Twas no fantastic object, but a truth, A real truth, no dream. I did not slumber ; And could wake ever with a brooding eye To gaze upon't ! it did endure the touch, I saw, and felt it. Yet what I beheld And handled oft, did so transcend belief (My wonder and astonishment pass'd o'er) I faintly could give credit to my senses. Thou dumb magician, (To the Key.)
