97 ページ - His face and person were rather on a small scale ; his features regular ; his eye lively and penetrating; and when he spoke, dimples played about his mouth ; which, nevertheless, had something restrained and close in it.
93 ページ - I had just witnessed. Much, however, as the wit and erudition of these men pleases an auditor at the first or second visit, the trial of minds becomes at last fatiguing, because it is unnatural and unsatisfactory. Every one of these brilliants goes there to shine ; for conversational powers are so much the rage in London, that no reputation is higher than his who exhibits them to advantage.
