Stran 385 - As through unquiet rest: he, on his side Leaning, half raised, with looks of cordial love Hung over her enamour'd, and beheld Beauty, which, whether waking or asleep, Shot forth peculiar graces; then with voice Mild, as when Zephyrus on Flora breathes, Her hand soft touching, whisper'd thus: ' Awake My fairest, my espoused, my latest found, Heaven's last, best gift, my ever new delight!

Stran 361 - This gave rise to an observation respecting his ' Age of Reason/ the publication of which I said had lost him the good opinion of numbers of his English advocates. He became uncommonly warm at this remark, and in a tone of singular energy declared, that he would not have published it, if he had not thought it calculated to ' inspire mankind with a more exalted idea of the Supreme Architect of the Universe, and to put an end to villainous imposture.
Stran 107 - Archangel: but not being able to * mount so high, it was in vain for me to * search his resemblance here below;. so * that I was forced to make an introspection ' into my own mind, and into that Idea of ' Beauty, which I have formed in my own * imagination.
