Strana 267 - I see before me the Gladiator lie : He leans upon his hand ; his manly brow Consents to death, but conquers agony, And his drooped head sinks gradually low : And through his side the last drops, ebbing slow From the red gash, fall heavy, one by one, Like the first of a thunder-shower ; and now The arena swims around him ; he is gone, Ere ceased the inhuman shout which hailed the wretch who won.
Strana 188 - When that this body did contain a spirit, A kingdom for it was too small a bound; But now two paces of the vilest earth Is room enough.

Strana 132 - If a man were called to fix the period in the history of the world during which the condition of the human race was most happy and prosperous, he would, without hesitation, name that which elapsed from the death of Domitian to the accession of Commodus [ie 96—180 AD].
Strana 141 - Tartara solvat; 205 ut sceptrum hoc' (dextra sceptrum nam forte gerebat) ' numquam fronde levi fundet virgulta nee umbras, cum semel in silvis imo de stirpe recisum matre caret, posuitque comas et bracchia ferro, olim arbos, nunc artificis manus aere decoro 210 inclusit, patribusque dedit gestare Latinis.
Strana 182 - Well believe this, No ceremony that to great ones 'longs, Not the king's crown, nor the deputed sword, The marshal's truncheon, nor the judge's robe, Become them with one half so good a grace As mercy does.
Strana 221 - Astarte, queen of Heaven, with crescent horns : To whose bright image nightly by the moon Sidonian virgins paid their vows and songs...
