Seite 15 - O'er other creatures. Yet when I approach Her loveliness, so absolute she seems And in herself complete, so well to know Her own, that what she wills to do or say, Seems wisest, virtuousest, discreetest, best.
Seite 458 - ... thou knowest, All my madness none can know ; All my hopes, where'er thou goest, Wither, yet with thee they go. Every feeling hath been shaken ; Pride, which not a world could bow, Bows to thee — by thee forsaken, Even my soul forsakes me now : But 'tis done — all words are idle — Words from me are vainer still ; But the thoughts we cannot bridle Force their way without the will. . Fare thee well!— thus disunited, Torn from every nearer tie, Sear'd in heart, and lone, and blighted, More...

Seite 133 - For neither man nor angel can discern Hypocrisy, the only evil that walks Invisible, except to God alone...

Seite 241 - Have you any more to say ? Rox. Yes, sir, this — To desire you will not mind him, but attend to me — Men were not born to advise — the thing is expressly the contrary — We women have certainly ten thousand times more sense — Men, indeed ! — Men were born for no other purpose under heaven, but to amuse us; and he, who succeeds best, perfectly answers the end of his creation — Now, sir, farewell.
Seite 93 - I declare and certify to be my last will and testament, signed and sealed in the presence of witnesses.
Seite 534 - So much inherent ambition in a character, without any other vice, and full of the milk of human kindness, though obnoxious to temptation, yet would have great struggles before it yielded, and as violent fits of subsequent remorse. If the mind is to be medicated by the operations of pity and terror, surely no means are so well adapted to that end, as a strong and lively representation of the agonizing struggles that precede, and the terrible horrors that follow wicked actions. Other poets thought...
Seite 213 - Why, shiver my topsails lad, the sooner thee become a fighting man and go to the wars, the better; and a nod's as good as a wink to a blind horse.
Seite 285 - The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together. Our virtues would be proud if our faults whipt them not; and our crimes would despair if they were not cherish'd by our virtues.
