He was not there ; Providence had not sent him ; the Time, calling its loudest, had to go down to confusion and wreck because he would not come when called.
Página 36 - I am indifferent, and cannot enjoy it ; till I am solitary, and cannot impart it ; ' till I am known, and do not want it. I hope it is no very cynical asperity not to confess obligations where no benefit has been received, or to be unwilling that the public should consider me as owing that to a patron, which Providence has enabled me to do for myself. " Having carried on my work thus far with so little obligation to any favourer of learning, I shall not be disappointed though I should conclude it,...
Página 230 - A tout mon sang prédit de secrets mouvements : Le gel cède à regret ses derniers diamants..., Demain, sur un soupir des bontés constellées, Le printemps vient briser les fontaines scellées : L'étonnant printemps rit, viole... On ne sait d'où Venu?
Página 5 - The king to Oxford sent his troop of horse, For Tories own no argument but force; With equal care to Cambridge books he sent, For Whigs allow no force but argument.
Página 36 - Is not a Patron, my Lord, one who looks with unconcern on a man struggling for life in the water, and, when he has reached ground, encumbers him with help ? The notice which you have been pleased to take of my labours, had it been early, had been kind ; but it has been delayed till I am indifferent, and cannot enjoy it ; till I am solitary, and cannot impart it ; till I am known, and do not want it.
