Seite 102 - He showed me a little tract, which he designs to publish, and there your Excellency will see his whole scheme of a life academico-philosophical — I shall make you remember what you were — of a college founded for Indian scholars and missionaries...
Seite 280 - Unhelp'd by practice, books, or art : For wit and humour differ quite ; That gives surprise, and this delight. Humour is odd, grotesque, and wild, Only by affectation spoil'd : 'Tis never by invention got, Men have it when they know it not.

Seite 322 - Come hither, all ye empty things, Ye bubbles rais'd by breath of Kings; Who float upon the tide of state, Come hither, and behold your fate. Let pride be taught by this rebuke, How very mean a thing's a Duke; From all his ill-got honours flung, Turn'd to that dirt from whence he sprung.
Seite 33 - I have no reason for being so merciful to him, but out of regard to the imputation you lie under. You do not in direct terms say you are not concerned with him ; but make it an argument of your innocence, that the Examiner has declared you have nothing to do with him.
Seite 277 - tis eafy to defcry She wants affiftance more than I ; Yet Teems to feel my pains alone, And is a Stoic in her own. When, among fcholars, can we find So foft and yet fo firm a mind...
