Strana 108 - Before this. dutv. honor, love, humanity, fell prostrate. Josephine we are told was dear to him ; but the devoted wife, who had stood firm and faithful in the day of his doubtful fortunes, was cast off in his prosperity, to make room for a stranger, who might be more subservient to his power. He was affectionate, we are told, to his brothers and mother ; but his brothers, the moment they ceased to be his tools, were disgraced : and his mother, it is said, was not allowed to sit in the presence of...
Strana 323 - Through the wide realm of whirling passion borne, — And there is London ! — England's heart and soul. By the proud flowing of her famous Thames She circulates through countless lands and isles Her queenly greatness ; gloriously she rules, At once the awe and sceptre of the world...
Strana 214 - For being dispersed, some in the air, some on the earth, some in the water, some among the minerals, dens, and caves, that are under the earth; they have by all means laboured to effect a universal rebellion against the laws, and as far as in them lieth utter destruction of the works of God.
