HISTORY UNITED NETHERLANDS, 1592-94 by Motley[#65][jm65v10.txt]4865

All fellow-worms together

Continuing to believe himself invincible and infallible

He spent more time at table than the Bearnese in sleep

Henry the Huguenot as the champion of the Council of Trent

Highest were not necessarily the least slimy

His invectives were, however, much stronger than his arguments

History is a continuous whole of which we see only fragments

Infinite capacity for pecuniary absorption

Leading motive with all was supposed to be religion

Past was once the Present, and once the Future

Sages of every generation, read the future like a printed scroll

Sewers which have ever run beneath decorous Christendom

Wrath of that injured personage as he read such libellous truths
