It not only deepens the speculations of sages, and sheds a melancholy hue over
the images of tragic poets, but heightens the feeling breathed forth in gay and

熱門章節
第 74 頁 - How charming is divine Philosophy! Not harsh and crabbed, as dull fools suppose, But musical as is Apollo's lute, And a perpetual feast of nectar'd sweets, Where no crude surfeit reigns.
第 90 頁 - ... it cannot be long before we lie down in darkness and have our light in ashes...
第 312 頁 - tis the soul of peace ; Of all the virtues 'tis nearest kin to heaven ; It makes men look like gods. The best of men That e'er wore earth about him was a sufferer, A soft, meek, patient, humble, tranquil spirit, The first true gentleman that ever breath'd.
第 90 頁 - The number of the dead long exceedeth all that shall live. The night of time far surpasseth the day, and who knows when was the equinox?
