Page 500 - Sans la langue, en un mot, l'auteur le plus divin, Est toujours, quoi qu'il fasse, un méchant écrivain.
Page 273 - ... vulgar lures of fame or power ; Such power as gluts the tyrant's purple pride, Such fame as reeks around the homicide. With peaceful trophies deck thy throne, nor bare Thy conquering sword, till Justice ask the war: Justice alone can consecrate renown, Her's are the brightest rays in Glory's crown ; All else nor eloquence nor song sublime Can screen from curse, or sanctify from crime.
