Σελίδα 218 - But that which is to be allowed him, and which very much contributed to cover his defects, is a daring fiery spirit that animates his translation, which is something like what one might imagine Homer himself would have writ before he arrived at years of discretion.
Σελίδα 216 - Davies, however, has conquered its difficulties ; and, as has been observed, " perhaps no language can produce a poem, extending to so great a length, of more condensation of thought, or in which fewer languid verses will be found...
Σελίδα 266 - Dream these are much less frequent than in his later dramas; but here we find several instances : thus, ' things base and vile, holding no quantity' for value; rivers, that, ' have overborn their continents' the continents * Literature of Europe, part ii.
