Strana 411 - Roman youth learn by long computation to subdivide a pound into an hundred parts. Let the son of Albinus tell me, if from five ounces one be subtracted, what remains?

Strana 395 - Peevish, querulous, a panegyrist of former times when he was a boy, and chastiser and censurer of his juniors. Our advancing years bring many advantages along with them.

Strana 366 - Hie ubi cognatorum opibus curifque refeftus, Expulit elleboro morbum bilemque meraco, Et redit ad fefe : Pol me occidiftis, amici, Non fervaftis, ait ; cui fie extorta voluptas, Et demptus per vim mentis gratiffimus error. ' Well, on the whole, plain profe muft be my fate : Wifdom (curfe on it) will come foon or late. There is a time when Poets will grow dull : 206...
