Página 306 - Dogget, the greatest sly drole in his parts, In acting was certain a master of arts ; A monument left — no herald is fuller, His praise is sung yearly by many a sculler; Ten thousand years hence, if the world lasts so long, Tom Dogget will still be the theme of their song ; When old Noll, with great Lewis and Bourbon, are forgot, And when numberless kings in oblivion shall rot.

He read the newspapers religiously ; went to church regularly ; never had a horse out on Sundays; made an excellent speech ; favoured the Whigs in politics. All these things contributed to make up a valuable and respectable citizen. Moreover, the even and deserved prosperity of his career, his converse — almost identity — with great personages, and the responsible authority of his position may easily have induced a certain semi-royal...

Página 275 - Inhuman, barbarous, unchivalrous." But the genius of modern war requires the use of those weapons which shall inflict the greatest possible damage upon an enemy in the shortest possible time, and hence the once despised torpedo now occupies a place in the front rank. In the short space of a magazine article it is impossible to take more than a mere cursory glance at our subject ; but so complete in its details was the first recorded torpedo boat that it merits more than passing notice.
