Thus, for instance, the affinity between Chatterers and Monkeys, and Praters and Parrots, is too obvious not to occur at once; Grunters and Growlers may be justly compared to Hogs; Snarlers are Curs that continually show their teeth, but never bite...
Seite 525 - To-day deep thoughts resolve with me to drench In mirth that after no repenting draws ; Let Euclid rest, and Archimedes pause, And what the Swede intend, and what the French.
Seite 501 - I have ever observed it to have been the office of a wise patriot, among the greatest affairs of the state, to take care of the commonwealth of learning. For schools, they are the seminaries of state ; and nothing is worthier the study of a statesman than that part of the republic which we call the advancement of letters.
Seite 117 - So from the root Springs lighter the green stalk, from thence the leaves More aery, last the bright consummate flower Spirits odorous breathes...
