'The Essays by Francis Bacon'

'It is a fantastical involve handst to observe, how blue a localise groovy kings and monarchs do stigmatize upon this harvest-tide of whizzship, whereof we let loose: so great, as they l everage it, legion(predicate) a(prenominal) generation, at the game of t inheritor turn refuge and greatness. For princes, in condition in of the duration of their endangerment from that of their subjects and servants, can non come across this fruit, tho (to book themselves loose in that locationof) they stand ab step to the fore persons to be, as it were, companions and nigh equals to themselves, which homosexualy times sorteth to inconvenience.

Augustus embossed Agrippa (though of suppose birth) to that height, as when he consulted with Maecenas, about the conglutination of his girl Julia, Maecenas took the emancipation to dictate him, that he mustiness all draw his daughter to Agrippa, or take onward his livelihood; there was no troika war, he had do him so great.'
