Σελίδα 517 - Than with a mass of miracles, ill-joined, Confound my ears, and not instruct my mind. The subject's never soon enough exprest; Your place of action must be fixed, and rest. A Spanish poet may with good event, In one day's space whole ages represent; There oft the hero of a wandering...
Σελίδα 110 - While we do not challenge the maintenance of the Turkish Empire in the homelands of the Turkish race, with its capital at Constantinople...
