Stran 126 - As the hart panteth after the water-brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God : when shall I come and appear before God...
Stran 1 - Austrian family to its extinction, or from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the end of the seventeenth, about two centuries.

Stran 211 - ... the literature that existed in Spain between the accession of the Bourbon Family and the invasion of Bonaparte ; or from the beginning of the eighteenth century to the early part of the nineteenth.
Stran 415 - One of the most complete commentaries that has been published on any author, ancient or modern. It is written, too, with taste and judgment in nearly all that relates to the merits* of the author ; it is rare to find an obscure point whichût does not elucidate.

Stran 454 - ... in the old Castilian literature, will probably not be thought beyond its deserts. " There is little, as it seems to me, in the early narrative poetry of any modern nation better worth reading than this old Morisco version of the story of Joseph. Parts of it overflow with the tenderest natural affection ; other parts are deeply pathetic ; and everywhere it bears the impress of the extraordinary state of manners and society that gave it birth.
Stran 457 - DICE LA MUERTE Non vos enojedes, señor padre santo. De andar en mi danza que tengo ordenada. Non vos valdrá el bermejo manto, De lo que fezistes abredes soldada.
