Page 346 - Tis now the very witching time of night, When churchyards yawn, and hell itself breathes out Contagion to this world : now could I drink hot blood, And do such bitter business as the day Would quake to look on.
Page 347 - Of these the false Achitophel was first; A name to all succeeding ages curst: For close designs and crooked councils fit; Sagacious, bold, and turbulent of wit; Restless, unfixed in principles and place; In power unpleased, impatient of disgrace: A fiery soul, which, working out its way, Fretted the pigmy body to decay, And o'er-informed the tenement of clay.
Page 11 - And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith, " Let all the Angels of
Page 189 - And laurelled Clio at his side Her storied pages showing. All parties feared him : each in turn Beheld its schemes disjointed, As right or left his fatal glance And spectral finger pointed. Sworn foe of Cant, he smote it down With trenchant wit unsparing, And, mocking, rent with ruthless hand The robe Pretence was wearing.

Page 199 - That if any Person of the age of Sixteen years or upwards, being a Subject of this Realm, at any time after the Tenth day of May next shall be present at any Assembly, Conventicle or Meeting, under Colour or Pretence of any Exercise of Religion, in other manner than according to the Liturgy and Practice of the Church of England...
Page 353 - The proposition is new, sir ; it is the first time it was ever heard in this house. I am not prepared, sir — this house is not prepared — to receive it. The measure implies a distrust of his Majesty's Government ; their disapproval is sufficient to warrant opposition. Precaution only is requisite where danger is apprehended. Here the high character of the individuals in question is a sufficient guarantee against any ground of alarm.
Page 353 - I ask the honourable gentleman if this is the time for carrying it into execution — whether, in fact, a more unfortunate period could have been selected than that which he has chosen? If this were an ordinary measure, I should not oppose it with so much vehemence ; but, Sir, it calls in question the wisdom of an irrevocable law — of a law passed at the memorable period of the Revolution.
