Էջ 255 - London, instead of common interludes, belonging to the theatre, has plays of a more holy subject ; representations of those miracles which the holy confessors wrought, or of the sufferings wherein the glorious constancy of the martyrs did appear.
Էջ 336 - ... same degree as the corn is made light. Some corn of this year's crop will not yield a stone of flour from a sack of wheat ; and it is not impossible that in some cases the corn has been so completely robbed of its flour by the fungus, that if the proprietor should choose to incur the expense of thrashing and grinding it, bran would be the produce, with scarce an atom of flour for each grain. Every species of corn, properly so called, is subject to the blight ; but it is observable that spring...
Էջ 314 - He had no suspicion at the time of the real nature of his indisposition, which proved in fact to be a complaint common in Bengal, an inflammation in the liver.
