When I was at Florence, and she was expected there, we were drawing sortes Virgilianas...
Seite 496 - We found it difficult to form an idea of this extraordinary manner of fishing; but we soon saw our guides return from the savannah, which they had been scouring for wild horses and mules. They brought about thirty with them, which they forced to enter the pool. ' The extraordinary noise caused by the horses' hoofs, makes the fish issue from the mud, and excites them to combat.
Seite 89 - God with his hands unjoyn'd ; and a little after, whilst in greate agonie, whether he should not offend God by using his holy name so often calling for ease. What shall I say of his frequent pathetical ejaculations utter'd of himselfe ; Sweete Jesus save me, deliver me, pardon my sinns, let thine angels receive me!
Seite 105 - Constitution, we have thought it proper at this point to leave every sect to provide, as they think fittest, the means of further instruction in their own peculiar tenets.
Seite 274 - The country rings around with loud alarms, And raw in fields the rude militia swarms; Mouths without hands; maintained at vast expense, In peace a charge, in war a weak defence; Stout once a month they march, a blustering band, And ever, but in times of need, at hand...
