Seite 113 - He is retired as noontide dew, Or fountain in a noon-day grove ; And you must love him, ere to you He will seem worthy of your love.
Seite 231 - Court, commanding them neither to spare for any cost, expense, or travayle, to make such a triumphant banquet as they might not only wonder at it here, but also make a glorious report of it in their country, to the great honour of the king and his realm.
Seite 231 - ... the officers caused them to ride to Hanworth, a place and parke of the Kinges, within three miles, there to hunt and spend the day...
Seite 141 - ... four hundred and fifty, we had perfectly in our recollection the accounts we had received on our march, that we were to be put to death on our arrival in the city which we now faw before us, approachable only by caufeways, whereon were feveral bridges, the breaking of one of which effectually cut oft- our retreat.
