Seite 176 - who indulge in the dreams of earthly retribution, will observe that the cruelty of Alfonso was not left without its recompense, even in his own person. He survived the affection of his subjects and of his dependants, who deserted him at his death ; and suffered his body to be interred without princely or decent honours. His last wishes were neglected ; his testament cancelled. His kinsman, Don Csesar, shrank from the excommunication of the Vatican, and, after a short struggle, or rather suspense,...
Seite 394 - Hic superum formas superi mirantur et ipsi, Et cupiunt fictis vultibus esse pares. Non potuit natura deos hoc ore creare, Quo miranda deum signa creavit homo.
Seite 169 - Este, cursing his past service, and retracting all the praises he had ever given in his verses to those princes, or to any individual connected with them, declaring that they were all a gang of poltroons, ingrates, and scoundrels (poltroni, ingrati, e ribaldi).

Seite 166 - Serassi, has left it without doubt, that the first cause of the poet's punishment was his desire to be occasionally, or altogether, free from his servitude at the court of Alfonso. In 1575, Tasso resolved to visit Rome, and enjoy the indulgence of the jubilee; "and this error...
Seite 170 - Tasso endured all the horrors of a solitary cell, and was under the care of a gaoler whose chief virtue, although he was a poet and a man of letters, was a cruel obedience to the commands of his prince. His name was Agostino Mosti. Tasso says of him, in a letter to his sister, " ed usa meco ogni sorte di rigors- ed inumanitiL...
Seite 158 - The bedstead, so they tell, has been carried off piecemeal, and the door half cut away, by the devotion of those whom ' the verse and prose ' of the prisoner have brought to Ferrara. The poet was confined in this room from the middle of March 1579, to December 1580, when he was removed to a contiguous apartment, much larger, in which, to use his own expressions, he could philosophise and walk about.

The traveller crosses the first of these at about a mile after he comes into the plain, and this divides the Tuscan from the Papal territories. The second, about...

What has been said and sung of the tepid winter of Italy, is not intelligible to the north of Rome ; but in that divine city, for some transport may be allowed to the recollection of all its attractions, we assent to the praises of Virgil, and feel...
Seite 274 - The mother tenderly affectionate and tenderly beloved, — the friend unboundedly generous, but still esteemed, — the charitable patroness of all distress, cannot be forgotten by those whom she cherished, and protected, and fed.
