Page 58 - Government must divest itself of the power of infringing in its executive capacity, the rights and privileges, which, as exercising the legislative authority, it has conferred on the Landholders. The Revenue officers must be deprived of their judicial powers.
Page 8 - And there's a crystal clearness all about ; The leaves are sharp, the distant hills look out ; A balmy briskness comes upon the breeze ; The smoke goes dancing from the cottage trees ; And when you listen, you may hear a coil Of bubbling springs about the grassy soil ; And all the scene, in short — sky, earth, and sea, Breathes like a bright-eyed face, that laughs out openly.
Page 30 - Jonson ; being men whose fire At distance and with reverence you admire, Do so, and you shall find your gain will be Much more, by yielding them priority, Than with a certainty of loss, to hold A foolish competition : 'tis too bold A task, and to be shunned ; nor shall my praise With too much weight, ruin what it would raise.
