Pagina 277 - We were stunned with these confused noises, but did not hear a single word till about half an hour after; which I ascribed to the harsh and obdurate sounds of that language, which wanted more time than ours to melt and become audible. 'After having here met with a very hearty welcome, we went to the cabin of the French, who, to make amends for their three weeks...
Pagina 325 - ... shall lie upon the table as an hour-glass is often placed near the pulpit,) to measure out the length of a discourse. I shall be willing to allow a man one round of my watch ; that is, a whole minute to speak in ; but if he exceeds that time, it shall be lawful for any of the company to look upon the watch, or to call him down to order.
Pagina 207 - ... author, where he will find the criticisms placed in the latter end of his book, that is, after the finest odes and satires in the Latin tongue. A modern, whose name I shall not mention, because I would not make a silly paper sell, was born a critic and an examiner, and, like one of the race of the serpent's teeth, came into the world with a sword in his hand. His works put me in mind of the story that is told of...
