Страница 279 - The terror is likewise in the punishment of the same criminal, who, if he be represented too great an offender, will not be pitied ; if altogether innocent, his punishment will be unjust.
Страница 120 - Lord, Lord, if these home-keeping minstrels had crossed your Atlantic or my Mediterranean, and tasted a little open boating in a white squall — or a gale in 'the Gut...
Страница 189 - My indignation at Mr. Keats's depreciation of Pope has hardly permitted me to do justice to his own genius, which, malgre all the fantastic fopperies of his style, was undoubtedly of great promise.

You will not understand these English words, and others will not understand them — which is the reason I have not scrawled them in Italian. But you will...
Страница 343 - Whatever Sheridan has done or chosen to do has been, par excellence, always the best of its kind.
Страница 380 - All my others are men-of-the-world friendships. I did not even feel it for Shelley, however much I admired and esteemed him; so that you see not even vanity could bribe me into it, for, of all men, Shelley thought highest of my talents, — and perhaps of my disposition.
