第7页 - The wisdom of a learned man cometh by opportunity of leisure: and he that hath little business shall become wise. How can he get wisdom that holdeth the plough, and that glorieth in the goad, that driveth oxen, and is occupied in their labours, and whose talk is of bullocks?
第101页 - He was indeed a very wise man, and of great parts, and possessed •with the most absolute spirit of popularity, that is, the most absolute faculties to govern the people, of any man I ever knew.
