Էջ 177 - atrocious crime of being a young man, which the honourable gentleman has with such spirit and decency charged upon me, I shall neither attempt to palliate nor deny, but content myself with wishing that I may be one of those, whose follies cease with their youth, and not one of that number who are ignorant in spite of
Էջ 17 - had it been early, had been kind ; but it has been delayed until I am indifferent and cannot enjoy it,—till I am solitary and cannot impart it,—till I am known and do not want it.
