91 페이지 - What is a man, If his chief good, and market of his time, Be but to sleep and feed? a beast, no more. Sure he that made us with such large discourse, Looking before, and after, gave us not That capability and godlike reason To fust in us unused.
59 페이지 - tis a common proof, That lowliness is young ambition's ladder, Whereto the climber upward turns his face; But when he once attains the upmost round, He then unto the ladder turns his back, Looks in the clouds, scorning the base degrees By which he did ascend.
155 페이지 - Weep with me, all you that read This little story: And know, for whom a tear you shed Death's self is sorry.
