Strana 42 - Let him inquire into the manners, revenues, and alliances of princes, things in themselves very pleasant to learn and very useful to know. In...
Strana 43 - ... there are a thousand others which he has only touched and glanced upon, where he only points with his finger to direct us which way we may go if we will, and contents himself sometimes with giving only one brisk hit in the nicest article of the question, whence we are to grope out the rest.
Strana 42 - But, withal, let my governor remember to what end his instructions are principally directed, and that he do not so much imprint in his pupil's memory the date of the ruin of Carthage, as the manners of Hannibal and Scipio; nor so much where Marcellus died, as why it was unworthy of his duty that he died there.

Neither should I think it good, when, by reason of a solitary and...
Strana 56 - If this pupil shall happen to be of so cross and contrary a disposition that he had rather hear a tale of a tub than the true narrative of some noble expedition, or some wise and learned discourse ; who at the beat of...
