Σελίδα 109 - God forbid : yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
Σελίδα 110 - Yet not the more Cease I to wander where the Muses haunt Clear spring, or shady grove, or sunny hill...
Σελίδα 109 - And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil that good may come? whose damnation is just.

Σελίδα 30 - What feigned submission swore! Ease would recant Vows made in pain, as violent and void; For never can true reconcilement grow Where wounds of deadly hate have pierced so deep...
Σελίδα 39 - Full many a gem of purest ray serene The dark unfathom'd caves of ocean bear : Full many a flower is born to blush unseen, And waste its sweetness on the desert air. Some village- Hampden, that, with dauntless breast, The little tyrant of his fields withstood, Some mute inglorious Milton here may rest, Some Cromwell guiltless of his country's blood. Th...
