140 ページ - It is at the foot of woman that we lay the laurels that, without her smile, would never have been gained : it is her image that strings the lyre of the poet, that animates our voice in the blaze of eloquent faction, and guides our brain in the august toils of stately councils.

122 ページ - How many an official portfolio would never have been carried, had it not been for her sanguine spirit and assiduous love ! How many a depressed and despairing advocate has clutched the great seal, and taken his precedence before princes, borne onward by the breeze of her inspiring hope, and illumined by the sunshine of her prophetic smile !
