Strana 85 - The Lord shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth, a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand, a nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor show favour to the young.
Strana 99 - Cheapside shall my palfrey go to grass: and when I am king, as king I will be,— ALL God save your majesty!

Strana 54 - Circles in water, as they wider flow, The less conspicuous in their progress grow; And when at last they touch upon the shore, Distinction ceases, and they're view'd no more.
Strana 117 - Sir, you do not know it to be good or bad till the judge determines it. I have said that you are to state...
Strana 26 - High o'er the restless Deep, above the reach Of Gunner's hope, vast flights of Wild-Ducks stretch; Far as the eye can glance on either side, In a broad space and level line they glide; All in their wedge-like figures from the North, Day after day, flight after flight, go forth.
