Strona 314 - Anon they move In perfect phalanx to the Dorian mood Of flutes and soft recorders...
Strona 29 - Viselli : 105 est modus in rebus, sunt certi denique fines, quos ultra citraque nequit consistere rectum.
Strona 298 - At last divine Cecilia came, Inventress of the vocal frame; The sweet enthusiast, from her sacred store, Enlarged the former narrow bounds, And added length to solemn sounds, With Nature's mother-wit, and arts unknown before. Let old Timotheus yield the prize, Or both divide the crown : He raised a mortal to the skies : She drew an angel down.
Strona 224 - And breathe an air divine on every face ; Yet should the Muses bid my numbers roll Strong as their charms, and gentle as their soul; With Zeuxis...
Strona 223 - The living image in the painter's breast! Thence endless streams of fair ideas flow, Strike in the sketch, or in the picture glow; Thence Beauty, waking all her forms, supplies An angel's sweetness, or Bridgewater's eyes.1 Muse! at that name thy sacred sorrows shed...

Thou honour'st verse, and verse must lend her wing To honour thee, the priest of Phoebus...
Strona 198 - Truth is the object of our understanding, as good is of our will; and the understanding can no more be delighted with a lie, than the will can choose an apparent evil. As truth is the end of all our speculations, so the discovery of it is the pleasure of them; and since a true knowledge of nature gives us pleasure, a lively imitation of it, either in poetry or painting, must of necessity produce a much greater: for both these arts . . . are not only true imitations of nature, but of the best nature,...
Strona 23 - RUE poetry the Painter's power displays : True Painting emulates the Poet's lays ; The rival sisters, fond of equal fame, Alternate change their office and their name ; Bid silent Poetry the canvass warm, . 5 The tuneful page with speaking picture charm.
