Page 169 - Hence it is that it is almost a definition of a gentleman to say he is one who never inflicts pain.
Page 428 - Four Dissertations on the RECIPROCAL ADVANTAGES of a PERPETUAL UNION BETWEEN GREAT BRITAIN AND HER AMERICAN COLONIES.
Page 161 - In good earnest, the very frame was worth the money, there being nothing in nature so tender and delicate as the flowers and festoons about it, and yet the work was very strong ; in the piece was more than one hundred figures of men, &c.

He fancies himself in a vast crowd which sways this way and that and whose movement and doings he must obey: he fancies himself poor, orphaned, insignificant.
Page 635 - To defy Power which seems omnipotent; To love, and bear; to hope till Hope creates From its own wreck the thing it contemplates; Neither to change, nor falter, nor repent; This, like thy glory, Titan, is to be Good, great and joyous, beautiful and free; This is alone Life, Joy, Empire and Victory.
