Σελίδα 12 - I would not that they should, unless his merit recommends him more. A noble birth and fortune, though they make not a bad man good, yet they are a real advantage to a worthy one, and place his virtues in the fairest light.
Σελίδα 37 - Be in itself the less or greater crime : Howe'er we may deceive ourselves or others, We act from inclination, not by rule, Or none could act amiss.

Σελίδα 55 - Oh ! say not so, but fly, abhor, and leave me to my fate ! Consider what you are : — how vast your fortune, and how bright your fame ; have pity on your youth, your beauty, and unequalled virtue, for which so many noble peers have sighed in vain...
Σελίδα 10 - On these terms to defend us, is to make our protection a benefit worthy her who confers it, and well worth our acceptance.
Σελίδα 19 - ... Love, madam, love — In short, madam, I believe he has thought of nothing but your ladyship ever since he left Lisbon. I am sure he could not, if I may judge of his heart by my own.
Σελίδα 16 - Mill. The interest I have in all that relates to you (the reason of which you shall know hereafter) excites my curiosity; and were I sure you would pardon my presumption, I should desire to know your real sentiments on a very particular affair.
