Sayfa lxxv - ... the peruser of Swift wants little previous knowledge ; it will be sufficient that he is acquainted with common words and common things : he is neither required to mount elevations, nor to explore profundities ; his passage is always on a level, along solid ground, without asperities, without obstruction.
Sayfa lviii - So soon as that spare Cassius. He reads much; He is a great observer, and he looks Quite through the deeds of men: he loves no plays, As thou dost, Antony; he hears no music: Seldom he smiles, and smiles in such a sort As if he mock'd himself, and scorn'd his spirit That could be mov'd to smile at any thing.
Sayfa xlv - ... when she writes to him, then in Ireland, "If you are very happy, it is ill-natured of you not to tell me so except 'tis what is inconsistent with mine.
Sayfa 44 - If you be wise, then, go not far to dine : You'll spend in coach-hire more than save in wine. A coming shower your shooting corns presage, Old aches will throb, your hollow tooth will rage ; Sauntering in coffeehouse is Dulman seen ; He damns the climate, and complains of spleen.
Sayfa 3 - So I went to the party suspected, and I found her full of grief; (Now you must know, of all things in the world, I hate a thief). However, I was resolv'd to bring the discourse slily about, Mrs Dukes...
Sayfa 43 - Till drown'd in shriller notes of chimney-sweep: Duns at his lordship's gate began to meet; And brickdust Moll had screamed through half the street. The turnkey now his flock returning sees, Duly let out a-nights to steal for fees: The watchful bailiffs take their silent stands, And schoolboys lag with satchels in their hands.
Sayfa xlv - ... correspondent. He was the son of Mrs Vanhomrigh's gardener, and used to work with his father in the garden when a boy. He remembered the unfortunate Vanessa well, and his account of her corresponded with the usual description of her person, especially as to her embonpoint. He said she went seldom abroad, and saw little company -: her constant amusement was reading, or walking in the garden.
Sayfa 43 - Appearing, show'd the ruddy morn's approach. Now Betty from her master's bed had flown, And softly stole to discompose her own; The slip-shod 'prentice from his master's door Had pared the dirt, and sprinkled round the floor. Now Moll had whirl'd her mop with dext'rous airs, Prepared to scrub the entry and the stairs.
Sayfa lv - I have been very miserable all night, and to-day extremely deaf and full of pain. I am so stupid and confounded, that I cannot express the mortification I am under both in body and mind. All I can say is, that I am not in torture ; but I daily and hourly expect it. Pray let me know how your health is, and your family. I hardly understand one word I write. I am sure my days will be very few ; few and miserable they must be.
Sayfa 189 - FIVE Hours, (and who can do it less in?) By haughty Celia spent in Dressing; The Goddess from her Chamber issues, Array'd in Lace, Brocades and Tissues. Strephon, who found the Room was void, And Betty otherwise employ'd; Stole in, and took a strict Survey, Of all the Litter as it lay; Whereof, to make the Matter clear, An Inventory follows here.
