The Republic of Letters, Vol. 1 of 4


Book Description

Excerpt from The Republic of Letters, Vol. 1 of 4: A Selection, in Poetry and Prose, From the Works of the Most Eminent Writers, With Many Original Pieces Before him; neither eating himself nor suffering others to eat in comfort And yet you may fall in with a worse set than even these, - with churls that, in all companies, and without stop or stay, will condemn and pull to pieces a work which they had never read. But this sinks below the business of an informer, yea, though he were a false witness to boot. The man who abuses a thing of which he is utterly ignorant, unites the infamy of both; and in addition to this, makes himself the pander and sycophant of his own and other men's envy and malignity.

Letters From the Old World, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Letters From the Old World, Vol. 1 of 2 In the order of time, the following letters ought properly to be entitled the second series; but it was supposed that their publication as the first would gratify many readers who had followed the progress of the author, so far as it was described in the letters communicated to the journal above named, and who would naturally wish for the continuation while to others it could make no difference whether they first took up the author's earlier or later journeys. The publishers confidently anticipate for the letters in their present form a reception from the public not less cor. Dial than that which was bestowed upon a portion of them when they appeared weekly in the columns of a newspaper.

The Letters of Cicero, Vol. 1 of 4


Book Description

Excerpt from The Letters of Cicero, Vol. 1 of 4: The Whole Extant Correspondence, in Chronological Order, Translated Into English I ought to mention that I have adopted the English mode Of dating, writing, for instance, July and August, though Cicero repudiated the former and, of course, never heard Of the latter. I have also refrained generally from attempting to represent his Greek by French, partly because I fear I should have done it ill, and partly because it is not in him as in an English writer who lards his sentences with French. It is almost confined to the letters to Atticus, to whom Greek was a second mother-tongue, and Often, I think, is a quota tion from him. It does not really represent Cicero's ordinary style.

Letters, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Letters, Vol. 1 I have not yet heard whether my predecessors have claimed a right of giving degrees; but if they have, in the present ferment here against the English, it would be very unpopular in me to exercise such a power in favour of one of my countrymen, nor would it answer the end he proposes. He will speedily wait upon your Grace in hopes of obtaining this favour at your hands. I am glad to find, by the King's speech and the addresses of both houses, which is the last news we have had, that you are likely to have a quiet sessions in England, and wish, when our turn comes, we may have as easy a one here. I shall always be proud of receiving your Grace's commands, and am, my Lord, Your Grace's most humble, and Most obedient Servant, Hu. Armagh. My Lord, It was Sunday last before I had the honour of your Grace's of the 17th past: I am very glad to find his Majesty's affairs go so smoothly in the Parliament in England; I could heartily wish every thing was so easy here.

Excerpt from Selections From the Letters of Robert Southey, Vol. 1 of 4 Prov. Xv. 15. A 4ness, interest and passion have their genuine effect; but a friendly letter is a calm and deliberate performance, in the cool of leisure, in the stillness of solitude; and truly no man sits down to depreciate by design his own character. Shrewd remarks these, beyond a doubt; but the words here printed in italics apply to men Of coarser mould than robert southey.
