68 페이지 - When all these employments are well conquered, then will the choice histories, heroic poems, and Attic tragedies of stateliest and most regal argument, with all the famous political orations, offer themselves; which if they were not only read, but some of them got by memory, and solemnly pronounced with right accent and grace, as might be taught, would endue them even with the spirit and vigor of Demosthenes or Cicero, Euripides or Sophocles.
437 페이지 - But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and there shall no torment touch them. In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die: and their departure is taken for misery. And their going from us to be utter destruction: but they are in peace.

266 페이지 - He began not his course as others have done, with speculative republicanism, nor did he end, as the same persons are now doing, with practical toryism. He was a churchman without bigotry, — he was a politician without duplicity — he was a loyalist without servility.
279 페이지 - I would tell them that the wise and the good cherish within their own bosom a religion, yet more pure and perfect than any formulary of speculation they externally profess ; that their agreements upon points of supreme and indisputable moment is greater, perhaps, than they may themselves suspect ; and that upon subjects, the evidence of which is doubtful, and the importance of which is secondary, their difference is nominal rather than real...

At the head of the school was Doctor Robert Sumner, a man of fine talents, but, unfortunately, one of those, who have passed away without leaving any trace behind, except in the admiring recollection of their contemporaries.

There is no one review in this country but what is conducted with a considerable degree of ability : and though I decline the task of deciding upon their comparative excellence, I have no hesitation in saying, that all of them deserve encouragement from learned men.
