In 1746 was produced his Progress of Discontent, paraphrase on one of his own exercises, made at the desire of Dr. Huddesford, the head of his college. His next effort attracted more general notice.
The Younger Edda is a prose paraphrase of, and commentary on, these poems and others which are lost, together with a treatise on metre, written by the historian Snorri Sturluson about 1220. This use of the word Edda is incorrect and unhistorical, though convenient and sanctioned by the use of several centuries.
And so he will probably be unsatisfied, or at any rate incomplete, and even more incomplete than the student of humane letters only. I once mentioned in a school report, how a young man in one of our English training colleges having to paraphrase the passage in Macbeth beginning, Canst thou not minister to a mind diseased? turned this line into, "Can you not wait upon the lunatic?"
"Rolling Stone, at your service," and he bowed again, this time with no trace of mockery. "Rolling Stone!" ejaculated Nort. "That isn't a name," complained Bud, but his voice had lost some of its stern quality, and his lips trembled on the verge of a smile. "I realize that it is more a state of being, or a quality," the man admitted. "But it happens to be a sort of paraphrase of my title.
Paraphrase Laurence Sterne to the extent of mumbling how "they order this matter much better in Hyde Park or in the Bois de Boulogne." Quote Mr. Henry James about "the blistered sentiers of asphalt, the rock-bound caverns, the huge iron bridges spanning little muddy lakes, the whole, crowded, cockneyfied place."

The enormities committed in his name were for the most part not his, but Monteagudo's; for, to paraphrase the saying of a French wit, "San Martin reigned, but his Minister governed."
To paraphrase the words and if I do so with reverence and for the sake of the spirit which is higher than the word, I think I am allowed to do so "Woman, what is there in your thoughts now that is in sympathy with mine? Also the hour that you are expecting is not come yet." What, then, was in our Lord's thoughts? and what was in his mother's thoughts to call forth his words?
Nobody believed them, because little Rogue Riderhood I am tempted into the paraphrase by remembering the charming wolf who would have rendered society a great service if he had devoured Mr Riderhood's father and mother in their infancy had previously played fast and loose with the said charges, and, in fact, abandoned them.
The lusty paraphrase by the enthusiastic Nik. Fred. Sev. Grundtvig, of which there have been several editions, has also been of occasional use. No other translations, save of a scrap here and there into German, seem to be extant. It will be understood, from what has been said, that no complete MS. of Saxo's History is known.
The Countess taking advantage of the sacred authority of her unexpected accomplice, led her on to make a kind of edifying paraphrase of this axiom of morality: "The end justifies the means." She questioned her: "Then, Sister, you think that God accepts all methods and forgives the act when the motive is pure?" "Who could doubt it, Madame?
