第 56 頁 - Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes? They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine. Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright: at the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder.
第 234 頁 - The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.
第 157 頁 - And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them : and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
第 102 頁 - China agrees to release, unconditionally, all subjects of Her Britannic Majesty (whether natives of Europe or India), who may be in confinement at this moment in any part of the Chinese Empire.

第 172 頁 - Their fertile hills, adorned with the richest luxuriance, Resemble, in the outline of their summits, the arched eyebrows of a fair woman. The inhabitants are inspired with a respect for the female sex, Who in this land correspond with the perfect features of nature ; Their young maidens have cheeks resembling red blossoms, And the complexion of their beauties is like the white gem : Of old has connubial affection been highly esteemed among them, Husband and wife delighting in mutual harmony.
第 33 頁 - Oh, the roast beef of old England, And oh the old English roast beef!
第 173 頁 - The spacious streets are exceedingly smooth and level, Each being crossed by others at intervals : On either side perambulate men and women, In the centre career along the carriages and horses : The mingled sound of voices is heard in the shops at evening; During winter the heaped-up snows adhere to the pathway : Lamps are displayed at night along the street sides, Whose radiance twinkles like the stars of the sky.
第 31 頁 - The figure was completed by his apparently warlike, but really peaceable implements, which no respectable chinaman would be seen without, viz., the fan with its highly-worked sheath: the purse or tobacco-pouch, in the exquisite embroidery of which great ingenuity is displayed; a variety of silver tooth and ear-picks, with a pocket for his watch, the belt to which these are attached having a small leather case fixed to it, to contain his flint and steel.
