Side 158 - Hesperides, and was afterwards broken into the rocks and caverns of Thrace. The subterraneous pipes conveyed an inexhaustible supply of water ; and what had just before appeared a level plain, might be suddenly converted into a wide lake, covered with armed vessels, and replenished with the monsters of the deep.
Side 193 - On the other parts of his royal highness's letter we do not presume to offer any observations ; but on the concluding paragraph, in so far as we may venture to suppose ourselves included in the gracious wish which it expresses, we owe it, in obedience and duty to his royal highness, to explain ourselves with frankness and sincerity.

Side 44 - To A GOOSE. IF thou didst feed on western plains of yore ; Or waddle wide with flat and flabby feet Over some Cambrian mountain's plashy moor ; Or find in farmer's yard a safe retreat From gipsy thieves, and foxes sly and fleet ; If thy grey quills, by lawyer guided, trace Deeds big with ruin to some wretched race, Or love-sick poet's sonnet, sad and sweet...
Side 192 - I was withheld from expressing, at an earlier period of the session, by my warmest desire that the expected motion on the affairs of Ireland might undergo the deliberate discussion of parliament, unmixed with any other consideration. " I think it hardly necessary to call your recollection to the recent circumstances under which I assumed the authority delegated me by parliament.
Side 66 - This too had been a troop-horse, and it was supposed, not without reason, that after regimental discipline had failed, no other would be found availing. I observed that the animal appeared terrified whenever Sullivan either spoke or looked at him ; how that extraordinary ascendency could have been obtained, it is difficult to conjecture.
