Seite 693 - The timid girls, half dreading their design, Dip the small foot in the retarded brine, And search for crimson weeds, which spreading flow, Or lie like pictures on the sand below; With all those bright red pebbles, that the sun Through the small waves so softly shines upon...
Seite 417 - That the freedom of speech, and debates or proceedings in Parliament, ought not to be impeached or questioned in any court or place out of Parliament.

Seite 691 - tis done, Counts up his Meals, now lessen'd by that one ; For Expectation is on Time intent, Whether he brings us Joy or Punishment. - Yes ! e'en in sleep th* impressions all remain, He hears the Sentence and he feels the Chain ; He sees the Judge and Jury, when he shakes, And loudly cries, " Not Guilty," and awakes : Then chilling Tremblings o'er his Body creep, Till worn-out Nature is compell'd to sleep.
Seite 258 - The evidence that there is a Being, all-powerful, wise, and good, by whom every thing exists ; and particularly, to obviate difficulties regarding the wisdom and goodness of the Deity ; and this, in the first place, from considerations independent of written revelation, and, in the second place, from the Revelation of the Lord Jesus ; and from the whole, to point out the inferences most necessary for and useful to mankind.
