Sida 14 - With all which so great and terrible an ostentation, they did not in all their sailing round about England so much as sink, or take, one ship, bark, pinnace, or cockboat of ours, or ever burnt so much as one sheepcote of this land.
Sida vi - Jones in private was, that he was a boy of so active a mind, that if, he were left naked and friendless on Salisbury plain, he would, never, theless, find the road to fame and riches.
Sida i - So rapid was the fall of Spain, that in only three reigns after the death of Philip II, the most powerful monarchy existing in the world was depressed to the lowest point of debasement, was insulted with impunity by foreign nations, was reduced more than once to bankruptcy, was stripped of her fairest possessions, was held up to public opprobrium, was made a theme on which school-boys and moralists loved to declaim respecting the uncertainty of human...
