Seite 166 - Well would it be, (if in harmonious peace The Christian Powers should e'er again unite, With steed and ship their ravished spoils to seize, And for his theft the savage Turk requite,) That they to thee should yield, in wisdom's right, The rule by land, or, if it have more charms, Of the high seas; meanwhile, let it delight To hear our verse ring with divine alarms; Rival of Godfrey, hear, and hearing, grasp thine arms!
Seite 146 - ... youth, and the other forbidding him ; for the one is a lover of the body and hungers after beauty like ripe fruit, and would fain satisfy himself without any regard to the character of the beloved ; the other holds the desire of the body to be a secondary matter, and, looking rather than loving...
Seite 150 - Being thus rigid in regard to his son, it will be manifest that he was little likely to favour more distant relations. It is true that he did raise two of his nephews to the cardinalate (and Pius V. had done as much), but when a third, encouraged by their promotion, came to court with hope of equal fortune, he was refused an audience, and commanded to quit Rome within two days. The brother of Gregory had left his home, and was on the road to see and enjoy the honour that had visited his family, but...

Seite 158 - ... of Pindar, that a swarm of bees settled upon his lips, and fed him with honey, when he was left exposed upon the highway. It probably had some foundation in fact, whatever may be thought of the implied augury of the special favour of the gods which is said to have been drawn from it at the time. In any case, the picture of the strayed child, sleeping unconscious of its danger...
Seite xxx - I shall tell thee nothing of myself, nor of the morning. While writing at Tasso I have been directly worshipping thee.
Seite 150 - ... and in doing this he regarded no man's interest or feelings. He spared neither the Emperor nor the King of Spain, and to his more immediate neighbors he showed as little deference. With Venice he was involved in disputes interminable; some regarded the affair of Aquileja, some the visitation of their churches, and various other points. The ambassadors can find no words to describe the heat with which he spoke of these matters, the acerbity that he displayed on their being even alluded to. With...
Seite xviii - But here he found a woman who was socially above him, who knew much that he had yet to learn, who was capable of entering fully into all his best thoughts, and who, withal, seemed ready to help him with sympathy and counsel. So it was that almost from the...
Seite xix - Stein was seven years older than Goethe, was the mother of several children, and at the time of her first acquaintance with the poet can hardly have attracted him by any physical charms.
