Pagina 108 - Now I saw in my dream, that by this time the Pilgrims were got over the Enchanted Ground ; and, entering into the country of Beulah,* whose air was very sweet and pleasant, the way lying directly through it, they solaced themselves there for a season.
Pagina 274 - THERE are a hundred faults in this thing, and a hundred things might be said to prove them beauties. But it is needless. A book may be amusing with numerous errors, or it may be very dull without a single absurdity.
Pagina 105 - Of Heaven or Hell I have no power to sing, I cannot ease the burden of your fears, Or make quick-coming death a little thing...
