Seite 442 - Otis's pamphlet I never saw, and whether I had gathered my ideas from reading or reflection, I do not know. I know only that I turned to neither book nor pamphlet while writing it. I did not consider it as any part of my charge to invent new ideas altogether, and to offer no sentiment which had ever...
Seite 411 - There were eight or ten more lines, but Peter destroyed them in his wrath. In the region of wild burlesque, where the ridiculous, by its intensity and mass, becomes the sublime, I never met any one to approach " Peter," except our amazing Medea-Robson.
Seite 218 - Now I lay me down to sleep ; I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to take.
