But our Quarrel with Ebronia is not with the Nation, but with their King, and this Quarrel seems to be unjust in this particular, at least in them who own'd him to be King, for that put an end to the Controversy.
And then a swarm of wandering horse, who came From far, and a more doubtful service own'd; The Tartars of Ferghana, from the banks Of the Jaxartes, men with scanty beards And close-set skull-caps; and those wilder hordes Who roam o'er Kipchak and the northern waste, Kalmucks and unkempt Kuzzaks, tribes who stray Nearest the Pole, and wandering Kirghizzes, Who come on shaggy ponies from Pamere; These all filed out from camp into the plain.
If a man is learning to dance on a rope, if he does not mind what he is about he will break his neck. After that it will be in vain for him to argue that he did not make a false step. His situation is not like that of Goldsmith's pedagogue: In argument they own'd his wondrous skill, And e'en though vanquish'd, he could argue still. Danger is a good teacher, and makes apt scholars.
Raymond Asquith was the bravest of the brave, nor did he ever complain of anything that fell to his lot while he was soldiering. It might have been written of him: He died As one that had been studied in his death To throw away the dearest thing he own'd. As 'twere a careless trifle. MACBETH, Act I., sc. iv. Our second son, Herbert, began his career as a lawyer.
So different in style is the free Mountain Chief from the Lowland long enslaved Greek, that you would hardly believe them to belong to the same nation. Odysseus ever called and thought himself free, and his family before him never own'd the dominion of the Turk, living in inaccessible holds no Turkish turbaned head was ever near them.
And not only wise and sober Men have declar'd their detestation of the Immorality of the Stage, but eminent Poets themselves, who have written the most applauded Comedies, have own'd, that the Theatre stands in great need of Restraints and Regulation, and wish'd that Plays were compil'd in such an inoffensive Manner, that not only discreet and vertuous Persons of the Laity, but a Bishop himself, without being shock'd, might be present while they were acted.
For 'twas this, they own'd, had saved them the King's message being but an exhortation and an advertisement upon some lesser matters, the most of which were already taken out of human hands by the turn of events.
A hater of his kind? yet some would say, With them he could seem gay amid the gay; But own'd that smile, if oft observed and near Waned in its mirth and wither'd to a sneer; That smile might reach his lip, but pass'd not by; None e'er could trace its laughter to his eye: Yet there was softness, too, in his regard, At times a heart is not by nature hard.
"So pleads the tale, that gives to future times The son's misfortunes, and the parent's crimes; There shall his fame, if own'd to-night, survive; Fix'd by the hand that bids our language live." Mr. Sheridan had now got into a current of dramatic fancy, of whose prosperous flow he continued to avail himself actively. The summer recess was employed in writing the Duenna; and his father-in-law, Mr.
"For several virtues Have I liked several women; never any With so full soul, but some defect in her Did quarrel with the noblest grace she own'd, And put it to the foil." He who after the death of his uncle continued to urge Sir Horace most on the subject of matrimony, was the one of all the world who might have been supposed least desirous to see him enter into its bonds.
