1042 psl. - Even he that hath clean hands, and a pure heart : and that hath not lift up his mind unto vanity, nor sworn to deceive his neighbour.
914 psl. - Yesterday, at Holland House, I was introduced to Southey — the best-looking bard I have seen for some time. To have that poet's head and shoulders, I would almost have written his Sapphics.
1061 psl. - Why, you must needs be strangers. Would you be pleased To find a nation of such barbarous temper. That breaking out in hideous violence Would not afford you an abode on earth. Whet their detested knives against your throats.
