Sida 126 - he was a man every way fitted for a court ; of a graceful appearance, a lively wit, and a cheerful temper ; a man of great expense ; decent even in his vices, for he always kept up the form of religion. He had gone through many transactions in Ireland with more fidelity than success. He had made a treaty with the Irish, which was broken by the great body of them, though some few of them adhered still to him.
Sida lxxix - ... when in motion, not to run over ; and therefore the variety of matter that he ever carries about him, may throw out more than an unkind critic would allow of.
Sida xxviii - Majesty will reflect upon your having now been twenty years upon the throne, and in all that time how little you have glorified God, how much you have provoked him, and that your ill example has drawn so many after you to sin, that men are not now ashamed of their vices, you cannot but think that God is offended with you; and if you...

He wounded some of them, but was soon -disarmed ; and then they cut his nose to the bone, to teach him to remember what respect he owed to the king ; and so they left him, and went back to the Duke of Monmouth's, where Obrian's arm was dressed.

Sida 224 - And afterwards he came out of his concealment, and lived many years much visited by all strangers, and much admired by all at home, for the poems he wrote, though he was then blind, chiefly that of Paradise Lost, in which there is a nobleness both of contrivance and execution, that, though he affected to write in blank verse, without rhyme, and made many new and rough words...
Sida 64 - Now, how strong soever this defence may be in law, it is of no force in an appeal to the world; for if a thing is true, it is no matter how full or how defective the proof is.
