Стр. xvii - O! it offends me to the soul to hear a robustious periwig-pated fellow tear a passion to tatters, to very rags, to split the ears of the groundlings, who for the most part are capable of nothing but inexplicable dumb shows and noise: I would have such a fellow whipped for o'erdoing Termagant; it out-herods Herod: pray you, avoid it.
Стр. xvii - Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you, trippingly on the tongue : but if you mouth it, as many of your players do, I had as lief the town-crier spoke my lines.
Стр. 100 - Blow out, you bugles, over the rich Dead! There's none of these so lonely and poor of old, But, dying, has made us rarer gifts than gold. These laid the world away; poured out the red Sweet wine of youth; gave up the years to be Of work and joy, and that unhoped serene, That men call age; and those who would have been, Their sons, they gave, their immortality.
Стр. xxii - Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock ; and the rain descended, and the floods carne, and the winds blew and beat opon that house ; and it fell not : for it was founded upon a rock.
Стр. 116 - But words are things, and a small drop of ink, Falling like dew, upon a thought, produces That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think...
Стр. 175 - What is it that throbs away, beats away, never stopping, never ceasing, whether you wake or sleep, night or day, week in and week out. month in and month out. year in and year out, without any volition on your part, hidden away in the depths, as it were, unseen by you. throbbing throbbing, throbbing, rhythmically all your life long?
Стр. 326 - In a similar manner, it is conceivable that cables of telephone wires could be laid underground, or suspended overhead, communicating by branch wires with private dwellings, country houses, shops, manufactories, etc., etc., uniting them through the main cable with a central office where the wires could be connected as desired, establishing direct communication between any two places in the city.
Стр. xvii - O ! it offends me to the soul to hear a robustious, periwig-pated fellow tear a passion to tatters, to very rags, to split the ears of the groundlings ; who, for the most part, arc capable of nothing but inexplicable dumb shows, and noise.
Стр. 395 - IT isn't the thing you do, dear; It's the thing you leave undone, Which gives you a bit of heartache At the setting of the sun.
Стр. 323 - NEVER go gloomily, man with a mind ! Hope is a better companion than fear, Providence ever benignant and kind, Gives with a smile what you take with a tear : All will be right, Look to the light, — Morning is ever the daughter of night, All that was black will be all that is bright, Cheerily, cheerily then ! cheer up.
