Strana 28 - There is given Unto the things of earth, which Time hath bent, A spirit's feeling, and where he hath leant His hand, but broke his scythe, there is a power And magic in the ruined battlement, For which the palace of the present hour Must yield its pomp, and wait till ages are its dower.—BYRON.
Strana 48 - Ye shall utterly destroy the places wherein the nations served their gods, upon the high mountains and upon the hills, and under every green tree: and ye shall overthrow their altars, break their pillars, burn their groves, and hew down the graven images of their gods.*
Strana 348 - Ah, me! what hand can pencil guide, or pen, To follow half on which the eye dilates, Thro' views more dazzling unto mortal ken Than those whereof such things the bard relates, Who to the awe-struck world unlocked Elysium's gates.
Strana 331 - eminentem, in qua inerat sphaerae figura et cylindri. Atque ego statim Syracusanis (erant autem principes mecum) dixi, me illud ipsum arbitrari esse quod quaererem. Immissi cum falcibus multi purgarunt, et aperuerunt locum: quo cum patefactus esset aditus ad adversam basim accessimus; apparebat epigramma exesis posterioribus partibus versiculorum dimidiatis fere.

Strana 25 - By following up the rivulet to the pretended Bandusia, you come to the roots of the higher mountain Gennaro. Singularly enough, the only spot of ploughed land in the whole valley is on the knoll where this Bandusia rises:— Tu frigus amabile Fessis vomere tauris Praebes, et pecori vago.
Strana 183 - Tis said, a stranger in the days of old, (Some say a Dorian, some a Sybarite; But distant things are ever lost in clouds)— Tis said, a stranger came, and, with his plough, Traced out the site; and Posidonia rose, Severely great, Neptune the tutelar God; A Homer's
Strana 209 - feet, a tract of Italy about three hundred miles in length, from the Promontory of Antium to the Cape of Palinurus: the greater part of which hath been sung by Homer and Virgil, as making a considerable
Strana 17 - the hill of Tivoli is all over picture. The town, the villas, the ruins, the rocks, the cascades, in the foreground; the Sabine hills, the three Monticelli, Soracte, Frascati, the Campagna, and Rome in the distance—these form a succession of landscapes superior, in the delight produced, to the richest cabinet of
Strana 198 - Avernis? Or shall I praise thy ports, or mention make Of the vast mound that binds the Lucrine Lake? Or the disdainful sea, that, shut from thence, Roars round the structure, and invades the fence, There, where secure the Julian waters glide, Or where Avernus'jaws admit the Tyrrhene
