Go great with tigers, dragons, wolves, and bears; Teem with new monsters, whom thy upward face Hath to the marbled mansion all above Never presented ! — O, a root, — Dear thanks !

Seite 71 - mince it sans remorse: Swear against objects; Put armour on thine ears, and on thine eyes;. Whose proof, nor yells of mothers, maids, nor babes, Nor sight of priests in holy vestments bleeding, Shall pierce a jot. There's gold to pay thy soldiers ; Make large confusion, and, thy fury spent, Confounded be thyself! Speak not, be gone.
Seite 73 - hate men ? They never flatter'd thee: What hast thou given ? If thou wilt curse, — thy father, that poor rag, Must be thy subject; who, in spite, put stuff' To some she beggar, and compounded thee, Poor rogue hereditary. Hence ! be gone ! — If thou hadst not been born the worst of men, Thou hadst been a knave, and flatterer.
Seite 142 - Perditur haec inter misero lux, non sine votis: O rus, quando ego te aspiciam ? quandoque licebit, Nunc veterum libris, nunc somno et inertibus horis, Ducere solicitae jucunda oblivia vitae ?
