Fortunam adhuc adversam tulisti: secundae res acrioribus stimulis animos explorant, quia miseriae tolerantur, felicitate corrumpimur. Fidem, libertatem, amicitiam, praecipua humani animi bona, tu quidem eadem constantia retinebis: sed alii per obsequium imminuent. Irrumpet adulatio, blanditiae, pessimum veri adfectus venenum, sua cuique utilitas.

The Consul was sent for. He called on the people to follow him out of the theatre to the Temple of Bellona, and there addressed to them that wonderful oration by which they were sent away not only pacified but in good-humor with Otho himself. "Iste regit dictis animos et pectora mulcet." I have spoken of Pliny's eulogy as to the great Consul's doings of the year.

"Rumoresque serunt varios et multa requirunt." "Confimat dictis simul atque exsuscitat acres Ad bellandum animos reficitque ad praelia mentes." Many of the critics of this period also wrote poems. Among these was VALERIUS CATO, sometimes called CATO GRAMMATICUS, whose love elegies were known to Ovid. He also amused himself with short mythological pieces, none of which have come down to us.

Ubi dolor? ubi ardor animi, qui etiam ex infantium ingeniis elicere voces et querelas solet? Nulla perturbatio animi, nulla corporis: frons non percussa, non femur; pedis, quod minimum est, nulla supplosio. Itaque tantum abfuit ut imflammares animos nostros, somnum isto loco vix tenebamus.

Little recked Perpusillus of two poor silly females that sat by the bereaved hearth, rocking themselves, and weeping, and discussing all his virtues, and how his mind had opened lately, and blind as two beetles to his faults, who rode away from them, jocund and bold. Ingentes animos angusto pectore versans. Arrived at court he speedily became a great favourite.

It may be observed, that these two poems were produced by events that really happened; and may, therefore, be of use to prove, that we can always feel more than we can imagine, and that the most artful fiction must give way to truth. I am, Sir, Your humble servant, No. 95. Dulcique animos novitate tenebo. OVID. Met. iv. 284. And with sweet novelty your soul detain.

Degrees of misery are proportioned to the mind rather than to the object; parva leves capiunt animos; and few men, in the trials of life, have experienced a more painful sensation than the poor school-boy with an imperfect task, who trembles on the eve of the black Monday.

In the meantime, I have related this combat of the lion to show what are at present the reigning entertainments of the politer part of Great Britain. Audiences have often been reproached by writers for the coarseness of their taste; but our present grievance does not seem to be the want of a good taste, but of common sense. Parva leves capiunt animos. OVID, Ars Am., i. 159.

Houses afterwards were built on its ground, and one of them became Jenny Man's "Tilt Yard Coffee House." No. 110. Friday, July 6, 1711. Addison. 'Horror ubique animos, simul ipsa silentia terrent. Virg.

We mean not to deny that there is something in this objection. It might even seem to plead the authority of Scripture in its favour "He that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen ?" And it was indeed no new remark in Horace's days, Segnius irritant animos demissa per aures, Quam quæ sunt oculis subjecta fidelibus.
