Seite 179 - But value dwells not in particular will; It holds his estimate and dignity As well wherein 'tis precious of itself As in the prizer.
Seite 185 - For beauty, wit, High birth, vigour of bone, desert in service, Love, friendship, charity, are subjects all To envious and calumniating time. One touch of nature makes the whole world kin, That all with one consent praise new-born gawds, Though they are made and moulded of things past, And give to dust that is a little gilt More laud than gilt o'er-dusted.
