"Thank you." "'O toi que sur le trone un feu celeste enflamme Des moi si ce grand art don't nous sommes epris, Est aussi difficile a Pekin qu'a Paris. Ton peuple est-il soumis a cette loi si dure, Qui vent qu'avec six pieds d'une egale mesure De deux Alexandrins, cote a cote marchants L'un serve pour la rime, et l'autre pour le sens?

Il sortit, et alors se firent entendre des ménestrels (musiciens) qui étoient dans la cour, près du buffet. Ils touchèrent des instrumens et chantèrent des chansons de gestes, dans lesquelles ils célébroient les grandes actions des guerriers Turcs.

The Unitarian clergy had given to the College a character of moderation, balance, judgment, restraint, what the French called mesure; excellent traits, which the College attained with singular success, so that its graduates could commonly be recognized by the stamp, but such a type of character rarely lent itself to autobiography.

"Il est rare que la tete des rois soit faite a la mesure de leur couronne." "What I want is something to eat," Miss Marguerite Wade confided in an undertone to Tony Cornish, a few minutes later in Lady Ferriby's drawing-room.
