"Nothing, but that Downing Street has turned into Parnassus. The astounding fact is, that Grenville has teemed, and, as the fruits of the long vacation, has produced a Latin epigram. 'Veris risit Amor roses caducas: Cui Ver "Vane puer, tuine flores, Quaeso, perpetuum manent in aevum?" The prince laughed.
Hic Ver perpetuum, atque alienis mensibus Æstas. But the little towns we passed looked so very old and tottering, and the inhabitants, too, appeared as much oppressed with years or cares as the heavy dilapidated architecture amid which they dwelt, and out of which they crept as we passed by, that one's heart grew sad.
Her gifted Tsar, Alexander I, was an idealist who wanted, not so much peace with the vanquished enemy as a complete reform of the ordering of the whole world, so that wars should thenceforward be abolished and the welfare of mankind be set developing like a sort of pacific perpetuum mobile.
Sex has at least some definite reference, though when Freud makes sex accountable for everything he as good as makes it accountable for nothing. We refuse any Cause, whether it be Sex or Libido or Elan Vital or ether or unit of force or perpetuum mobile or anything else.

And he must do the same.
Teresa, too, had put aside for once that perpetuum mobile which women call knitting, lest she might poke out her kinswoman's eye with it. On perceiving her daughter, Mrs. Meyer would not descend from the coach.
For on coming into office he had to issue an edict, called edictum perpetuum, specifying the principles he intended to guide him in any new cases that might arise. If these were merely a continuation of those of his predecessor, his edict was called tralaticium, or "handed on."
In finely pulverised platinum, and even in spongy platinum, we therefore possess a perpetuum mobile a mechanism like a watch which runs out and winds itself up a force which is never exhausted competent to produce effects of the most powerful kind, and self-renewed ad infinitum.
