Stran 192 - Zar, ich habe die Macht, ich habe das Glück. Glaub deinen Augen, was du deinem Herzen nicht glauben kannst. Ich will dich als Mutter behandeln. Du sollst einen ehrerbietigen Sohn in mir sehen. Was willst du mehr?

Stran 158 - ... tavern, the church, and in everyday life. No fault, however, could be found with their military appearance, for they stood in an erect and a soldierly attitude. All their muskets had bayonets attached to them, and their riflemen had rifles. They remained so perfectly quiet that we were utterly astounded.

Stran 66 - In the defence of her, and of her right. This noble quene eek lovede so this knight, Through his desert, and for his chivalrye ; As certeinly, but-if that bokes lye, (30) He was, of persone and of gentilesse, 610 And of discrecioun and hardinesse, Worthy to any wight that liven may.
