Did not I give you ten, then fifteen and twenty shillings a, week to be sorrowful ! — and the more I give, you, I think the gladder you are .'" 1

Página 181 - Ask them the cause ; they're wiser still they say ; And still to-morrow's wiser than to-day. We think our fathers fools, so wise we grow ; Our wiser sons no doubt will think us so. Once school-divines this zealous isle o'erspread ; Who knew most sentences was deepest read.
Página 45 - And mountains levelled in his furious race; So first rebellion founded was in grace. But since the mighty ravage which he made In German forests, had his guilt betrayed, With broken tusks, and with a borrowed name, He shunned the vengeance, and concealed the shame; So lurked in sects unseen.
