Side 386 - He who tells a lie, is not sensible how great a task he undertakes ; for he must be forced to invent twenty more to maintain that one.
Side 369 - What Time would spare, from Steel receives its date, And monuments, like men, submit to fate! Steel could the labour of the Gods destroy, And strike to dust th' imperial tow'rs of Troy; Steel could the works of mortal pride confound, And hew triumphal arches to the ground.
