Strana 42 - HIGH on a throne of royal state, which far Outshone the wealth of Ormus and of Ind, Or where the gorgeous East with richest hand Showers on her kings barbaric pearl and gold, Satan exalted sat...

Strana 516 - Fillet of a fenny snake, In the cauldron boil and bake : Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

Strana 297 - Hail inexhausted, boundless spring Of sacred truth and Holy Majesty ! Grand is thy form — 'bout five feet ten, Thou well-built, worthiest, best of men ! Thy chest is stout, thy back is broad— Thy Pages view thee, and are aw'd ! Lo ! how thy white eyes roll ! Thy whiter eye-brows stare ! Honest soul ! Thou'rt witty, as thou'rt fair I III.
Strana 17 - Jim with age, &c. &c." This is a very great beauty, for it fares with ideas, as with individuals ; we are the more interested in their fate, the better we are acquainted with them. But how inferior is Addison in this respect to our author ? Gimlets they are, &c.
