الصفحة 348 - We were now treading that illustrious island, which was once the luminary of the Caledonian regions, whence savage clans and roving barbarians derived the benefits of knowledge, and the blessings of religion. To abstract the mind from all local emotion would be impossible, if it were endeavoured, and would be foolish, if it were possible.
الصفحة 43 - And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
الصفحة 265 - This castle hath a pleasant seat ; the air Nimbly and sweetly recommends itself Unto our gentle senses. BAN. This guest of summer, The temple-haunting martlet, does approve By his loved mansionry that the heaven's breath Smells wooingly here : no jutty, frieze, Buttress, nor coign of vantage, but this bird Hath made his pendent bed and procreant cradle : Where they most breed and haunt, I have observed The air is delicate.

And let me beg of you, as you value your old friend, not to suffer any pomp to be used at my funeral ; nor any monument nor monumental inscription whatsoever, to mark where I am laid; but lay me quietly in the earth, place a sun-dial over my grave, and let me be forgotten.
الصفحة 299 - And *mong the Cossacks had been bred, Of whom we in diurnals read, That serve to fill up pages here, As with their bodies ditches there. Scrimansky was his cousin-german, With whom he serv'd, and fed on vermin , And when these fail'd, he'd suck his claws, And quarter himself upon his paws : And though his countrymen, the Huns, Did stew their meat between their bums And th...
الصفحة 342 - ... life has rendered it impossible that I should get rid of this fever. If I had lived as you do, eating heartily of animal food, and drinking wine, I might, perhaps, by altering my diet, be able to subdue it. But how can such a man as I am lower his diet, who has been accustomed for years to exist upon vegetables and water, a little bread, and a little tea?
الصفحة 312 - Russ'a, given to agriculture and commerce, and here, as well as there, decidedly different from the Nogays, or other Mongul tribes. The Nogays, however, in the Crimea, appear to have greatly improved their breed by intermarriages with the original inhabitants, being much handsomer and taller than those to the north of the Golden Gate. The mountaineers have large bushy beards when old ; the Tahtars of the Plain seldom possess more than a few thin hairs.
الصفحة 341 - The admiral finding him in such a melancholy mood, endeavoured to turn the conversation, imagining the whole might be merely the result of low spirits ; but Mr. Howard soon assured him it was otherwise, and added, ' Priestman, you style this a very dull conversation, and endeavour to divert my mind from dwelling upon death ; but I entertain very different sentiments.
الصفحة 342 - I, have but a short time to live: my mode of life has rendered it impossible that I should get rid of this fever. If I had lived as you do, eating heartily of animal food, and drinking wine, I might, perhaps, by altering my diet, be able to subdue it.
