The English Volunteers During the Late Invasion

Nathan Hale

Affection for the old-fashioned, all-round country doctor

Applauds what would have blushed at a few years ago

Architectural measles in this country

Avoid comparisons, similes, and even too much use of metaphor

Book a window, through which I am to see life

Cannot be truthfulness about life without knowledge

Contemporary play instead of character we have "characters,"

Disposition to make the best of whatever comes to us

Do not habitually postpone that season of happiness

Dwelling here. And here content to dwell

Explainable, if not justifiable

Eye demands simple lines, proportion, harmony in mass, dignity

Happiness is an inner condition, not to be raced after

Instead of simply being happy in the condition where we are

Lawyers will divide the oyster between them

Make a newspaper to suit the public

Making the journey of this life with just baggage enough

Moral specialist, who has only one hobby

Name an age that has cherished more delusions than ours

No amount of failure seems to lessen this belief

No man can count himself happy while in this life

No satisfaction in gaining more than we personally want

Not the thing itself, but the pursuit, that is an illusion

Profession which demands so much self-sacrifice

Proprietary medicine business is popular ignorance and credulity

"Purely vegetable" seem most suitable to the wooden-heads

Relapsing into the tawdry and the over-ornamented

Secrecy or low origin of the remedy that is its attraction

Simplicity: This is the stamp of all enduring work

Thinks he may be exempt from the general rules

Treated the patient, as the phrase is, for all he was worth

Unrelieved realism is apt to give a false impression

Warm up to the doctor when the judgment Day heaves in view

Yankee ingenuity,--he "could do anything but spin,"
