This was the most complete map of Australia published up to the date named.
I gave it, well sealed up, to Du Voisin, a minister in the pays de Vaud and chaplain at the Hotel de Hollande, who sometimes came to see me, and took upon himself to send the packet to Rey, with whom he was connected. The manuscript, written in a small letter, was but very trifling, and did not fill his pocket.
He has his father's house property, supposed to be worth another million, and he has let the Grand Hotel de Hollande already to a cousin of the Graffs." "You look sad ven you look at your friend," remarked Schmucke, who had listened with great interest. "Kann you pe chealous of him?" "I am jealous for Fritz's happiness," said Wilhelm. "Does that face look as if it belonged to a happy man?
Grotius's History was translated into French by M. L'Heritier, father of Mademoiselle L'Heritier, famous for her writings: but it deserves a new translator to turn it into better French. Ep. 595. p. 236. Ep. 402. p. 869. Ep. 454. p. 883. Ep. 539. p. 916. Parhasiana, t. 1. p. 161. Preface de l'Hist. de Hollande. Ep. 873. p. 384. Vie par Gassendi, l. 3. p. 182.
She was instructed to inform the count that she had come to Paris with an English family, and was the bearer of a commission from the Duchess of St. Leu to M. de Houdetot. M. de Houdetot responded to her request, and came to the Hôtel de Hollande to see Mlle. Massuyer. With surprise and emotion, he recognized in the supposititious English lady the Duchess of St.

It appeared to me diverting enough, that Madam de Boufflers should wish to direct my conscience in matters of religion.
"As you have a fourth place, I know who had best take it." "And who is that?" asked the young traveller. Lord Kew and Barnes, Esq., of Newcome, came out of the Hotel de Hollande at this moment. Barnes slunk back, seeing Jack Belsize's hairy face. Kew ran over the bridge. "Good-bye, Clive. Good-bye, Jack." "Good-bye, Kew." It was a great handshake.
Fuller's Worthys, the Cabbala or Collections of Letters of State, and a little book, Delices de Hollande, with another little book or two, all of good use or serious pleasure: and Hudibras, both parts, the book now in greatest fashion for drollery, though I cannot, I confess, see enough where the wit lies.

Poemata, p. 217. Ep. 491. p. 896. VI. It was therefore on the tenth of April in the year 1583, that Grotius was born, at Delft.
He endeavours to weaken and steal from the church, her most powerful proofs of the divinity of the Son of God, and strives to darken the prophecies, which announce the arrival of the Messiah." Bossuet proceeds to particularize some of the principal errors of Grotius: Le Clerc replied to the prelate's criticism, by his Sentimens de quelques Theologiens de la Hollande.
