Strana 10 - Auditis, an me ludit amabilis Insania ? Audire et videor pios Errare per lucos amoenae Quos et aquae subeunt et aurae.

But no sooner had he spoken for some time, than he was changed into another being. He forgot...
Strana 81 - Laureate Dryden Pimp and Fry'r engage, Yet neither Charles nor James be in a Rage? And I not strip the Gilding off a Knave, Un-plac'd, un-pension'd, no Man's Heir, or Slave? I will, or perish in the gen'rous Cause.
Strana 178 - Ces hommes purs, dont l'âme ardente aspirait la liberté, que la philosophie avait préparés pour elle dans le calme de l'étude et l'austérité de la retraite , se sont flattés, comme toi, que le renversement de la tyrannie...
Strana 21 - Wherefore now, manfully changing this life, I will shew myself such an one as mine age requireth, and leave a notable example to such as be young to die willingly and courageously for the honourable and holy laws.
