Sivu 197 - The Ambassador from Tripoli and his son were carried to see that chamber. The procession through a line of foot-guards, every seventh man bearing a torch, the horse-guards lining the outside, their officers with drawn sabres and crape sashes on horseback, the drums muffled, the fifes, bells tolling, and minute guns, all this was very solemn.
Sivu 43 - ... rent, — but different as they are they meet at last, — " and long," he added with bitter irony, " long may they " continue united to the comfort of each other, and to the " glory, honour, and security of this nation ! " f Fox, tired and unanimated, replied only in a few words.
Sivu 149 - Wolfe alone — thus tradition has told us — repeated in a low voice to the other officers in his boat those beautiful stanzas with which a country church-yard inspired the muse of Gray. One noble line 'The paths. of glory lead but to the grave" — must have seemed at such a moment fraught with mournful meaning.

When he talks of being responsible to the People, he talks the language of the House of Commons; forgets that, at this Board, he is only responsible to the King.
Sivu 254 - Moncton's letter; there is more martial spirit in it than in half Thucydides, and in all the grand Cyrus. Do you think Demosthenes or Themistocles ever raised the...
Sivu xiv - If I was surprised to find him there, I was still more astonished when he acquainted me with the motives which had induced him to hazard a journey to England at this juncture.
Sivu 94 - Walpole and Lord Chesterfield, and the language of both at this period is fraught with the deepest despondency. According to the former : "It is time for England to slip her cables and " float away into some unknown ocean...
