Stran 165 - Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.
Stran 194 - ... on him thy soft influences, Thy sunny hues, fair forms, and breathing sweets ; Thy melodies of woods, and winds, and waters! Till he relent, and can no more endure To be a jarring and a dissonant thing Amid this general dance and minstrelsy ; But, bursting into tears, wins back his way, His angry spirit healed and harmonized By the benignant touch of love and beauty.
Stran 473 - You taught me language; and my profit on't Is, I know how to curse : The red plague rid you, For learning me your language ! Pro.
Stran 235 - And the second time we came to " New College, after we had declared your injunctions, we " found all the great quadrant court full of the leaves of " Dunce, the wind blowing them into every corner.
Stran 466 - For he should persevere until he has attained one of two things : either he should discover or learn the truth about them ; or, if this is impossible, I would have him take the best and most irrefragable of human notions, and let this be the raft upon which he sails through life — not without risk, as I admit, if he cannot find some word of God which will more surely and safely carry him.

Stran 465 - Some things I have said of which I am not altogether confident. But that we shall be better and braver and less helpless if we think that we ought to enquire, than we should have been if we indulged in the idle fancy that there was no knowing and no use in seeking to know what we do not know; — that is a theme upon which I am ready to fight, in word and deed, to the utmost of my power.
Stran 479 - ... the observation of his pupils. The little plane, valley, or hill in sight may be used to give them glimpses of those vast planes, valleys, and mountains which are found on the earth's surface. Their knowledge of the climate and seasons of their own neighborhood may be made clearer and more definite by lively sketches of the climates and seasons of lands in the torrid and frigid zones.
