Stran 346 - Live while you live, the Epicure would say, And seize the pleasures of the present day. Live while you live, the sacred Preacher cries, And give to God each moment as it flies. Lord, in my views let both united be ; I live in pleasure, when I live to thee.
Stran 76 - me to continue it. When I had once addressed your lordship in public, I had exhausted all the art of pleasing which a retired and uncourtly scholar can possess. I had done all that 1 could ; and no man is well pleased to have his all neglected, be it ever so little.
Stran 76 - indifferent, and cannot enjoy it ; till I am solitary, and cannot impart it 4 ; till I am known, and do not want it. I hope it is no very cynical asperity not to confess obligations where no
Stran 30 - Principium, vector, dux, semita, terminus, idem." " О Thou whose power o'er moving worlds presides, Whose voice created, and whose wisdom guides On darkling man in pure effulgence shine, And cheer the clouded mind with light divine. 'Tis thine alone to calm the pious breast, With silent confidence and holy rest; From

No peaceful desert yet unclaim'd by Spain ? Quick let us rise, the happy seats explore, And bear Oppression's insolence no more."
Stran 139 - afford sufficient food to their vanity ; so they have betaken themselves to error. Truth, Sir, is a cow which will yield such people no more milk, and so they are gone to milk the bull. If I could have allowed myself to gratify my vanity at the expense of truth, what lame might I have acquired!
Stran 196 - determined to be master of the field, he had recourse to the device which Goldsmith imputed to him in the witty words of one of Cibber's comedies : " There is no arguing with Johnson ; for when his pistol misses fire, he knocks you down with the but-end of it.
Stran 136 - not what honour he can propose to himself from having the character of a liar. But if he does really think that there is no distinction between virtue and vice, why.
