Pàgina 260 - I was repairing some of the loose leaves with paste, which your impatience would not suffer to be left till daybreak, — was there no pleasure in being a poor man ? or can those neat black clothes which you wear now, and are so careful to keep brushed since we have become rich and finical, give you half the honest vanity with which you flaunted it about in that over-worn...

Pàgina 260 - ... lighted out the relic from his dusty treasures ; and when you lugged it home, wishing it were twice as cumbersome ; and when you presented it to me, and when we were exploring the perfectness of it, (collating you called it ;) and while I was repairing some of the loose leaves with paste, which your impatience would not suffer to be left till daybreak, — was there no pleasure in being a poor man...
Pàgina 90 - Fair Ines had always, for me, an inexpressible charm : O saw ye not fair Ines ? She's gone into the West, To dazzle when the sun is down. And rob the world of rest : She took our daylight with her, The smiles that we love best, With morning blushes on her cheek, And pearls upon her breast.
Pàgina 260 - I had to get you to consent in those times !) — we were used to have a debate two or three days before, and to weigh the for and against, and think what we might spare it out of, and what saving we could hit upon, that should be an equivalent.

Pàgina 526 - Do take another slice, Mr. Billet, for you do not get pudding every day."

Pàgina 650 - Now Jove suspends his golden scales in air, Weighs the men's wits against the lady's hair: The doubtful beam long nods from side to side; At length the wits mount up, the hairs subside.
