第 92 頁 - Nor do I ever find myself the worse for writing immediately after meals; nor is my understanding ever clearer ; nor am I apt to be drowsy ; the food I take being in too small a quantity to send up any fumes to the brain. O, how advantageous it is to an old man to eat but little ! Accordingly, I who know it eat but just enough to keep body and soul together...
第 50 頁 - Discourses, wherein he acquaints us with the irregularity of his youth, his reformation of manners, and the hopes he entertained of living a long time.

But, on my draining off the waters, the air mended, and people resorted to it so fast, and increased to such a degree, that it soon acquired the perfection in which it now appears ; hence I may say with truth, that I have given, in this place, an altar and a temple to God, with souls to adore him.
