Side 32 - The sport of winds : all these upwhirl'd aloft Fly o'er the backside of the world far off, Into a limbo large and broad, since call'd The Paradise of fools, to few unknown Long after, now unpeopled, and untrod.
Side 49 - Proscriber had descended to us in a more hideous form than they now appear, if the emperor had not taken care to make friends of him and Horace. I confess the banishment of Ovid was a blot in his escutcheon; yet he was only banished, and who knows but his crime was capital?

Side 35 - Whose womb Orlando's godlike reason held : This well he knew, for on its side were writ These words in letters fair, ORLANDO'S WIT*.
Side 143 - Ilion, and the Grecian fate ; Full oft I told ; at length for parting mov'd : The king with mighty gifts my suit approv'd. The adverse winds in leathern bags he brac'd, Compress'd...
