    ET11 5.187 13 [English nobility] is a romance adorning English life with a larger horizon; a midway heaven, fulfilling to their sense their fairy tales and poetry. This, just as far as the breeding of the nobleman really made him brave, handsome, accomplished and great-hearted.

    ET13 5.219 2 Another part of the same service [at York Minster] on this occasion was not insignificant. Handel's coronation anthem, God save the King, was played by Dr. Camidge on the organ, with sublime effect. The minster and the music were made for each other.
    ET13 5.220 16 ...the age...of the Sherlocks and Butlers, is gone. Silent revolutions in opinion have made it impossible that men like these should return...
    ET13 5.221 12 A great duke said on the occasion of a victory, in the House of Lords, that he thought the Almighty God had not been well used by them, and that it would become their magnanimity, after so great successes, to take order that a proper acknowledgement be made.

    ET14 5.251 17 ...literary reputations have been achieved [in England] by forcible men...who were driven by tastes and modes they found in vogue into their several careers. So, at this moment, every ambitious young man studies geology: so members of Parliament are made, and churchmen.
