עמוד 165 - Dion, but made small progress in it. "As to his other affairs, he died poor but honest, leaving no debts or legacies, except of a few pounds to Mr. Trumbull and my lady, in token of respect, gratefulness, and mutual esteem. " I shall with pleasure take upon me to draw this amiable, quiet, deserving, unpretending, Christian, and philosophical character in his epitaph. There truth may be spoken in a few words ; as for flourish...
עמוד 317 - nodded in company;" and once slumbered at his own table while the Prince of Wales was talking of poetry.
עמוד 164 - Circumstances of it. All I hear, is, that he felt a Gradual Decay, tho' so early in Life; & was declining for 5 or 6 months. It was not, as I apprehended, the Gout in his Stomach, but I believe rather a Complication first of Gross Humors, as he was naturally Corpulent, not discharging themselves, as he used No sort of Exercise.
עמוד 189 - I should be glad the world knew you admitted me to your friendship; and since your affection is too hard for your judgment, I am contented to let the world know how well Mr.
עמוד 123 - Magazine," under the name of Chester. He died at Bath, November 16, 1745, and was buried in the abbey church. Of Broome, though it cannot be said that he was a great poet, it would be unjust to deny that he was an excellent versifier ; his lines are smooth and sonorous, and his diction is select and elegant. His rhymes are sometimes unsuitable; in his " Melancholy," he makes breath rhyme to birth in one place, and to earth in another.
עמוד 285 - a party pamphlet, founded on the lie of the day, which, as lord Bolingbroke who had read it often assured me, was coined and delivered out to him, to write Examiners, and other political papers upon.
עמוד 329 - Dutch elms were condemned by a fifth ; and thus about half the trees were proscribed, contrary to the Paradise of God's own planting, which is expressly said 'to be planted with all trees. There were some who could not bear ever-greens, and called them never-greens; some who were angry at them only when cut into shapes, and gave the modern gardeners the name of ever-green...
עמוד 396 - POPE has the Talent well to speak, But not to reach the Ear ; His loudest Voice is low and weak, The Dean too deaf to hear. A while they on each other look, Then different Studies choose; The Dean sits plodding on a Book ; Pope walks, and courts the Muse.
עמוד 164 - As to any Papers left behind him, I dare say they can be but few ; for this reason, He never wrote out of Vanity, or thought much of the Applause of Men. I know an Instance...
עמוד 324 - leave her seven days together." 1 Riskins, near Colnbrook, in Buckinghamshire, and about 17 miles from London, was sold by Lord Bathurst to Lord Hartford in 1739. Lady Hartford, describing it to Lady Pomfrer, says, the grounds " come nearer to my idea of a scene in Arcadia than any place I ever saw.
