Part 29

DR. HARVEY.

15. With scrupulous care exact, he walks the rounds Of fashionable duty; laughs when sad, When merry weeps, deceiving is deceived, And flattering, flatter'd.

POLLOK.

16. A fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.

Hamlet.

17. Erect, morose, determined, solemn, slow; Who knows the man can never cease to know.

CRABBE.

18. Rare compound of oddity, frolic, and fun, To relish a joke, and rejoice in a pun!

GOLDSMITH.

19. He is a man Among a thousand. Unassuming, he May yet assume unquestion'd. Gentleness, And a strange strength, a calm o'erruling strength, Are mix'd within him so, that neither take Possession from the other,--neither rise In mastery or passion, but both grow Harmoniously together.

W. G. SIMMS.

20. For beauty and fortin' the laddie's been courtin', Weel featured, weel tochered, weel mounted and braw!

BURNS.

21. He will pick a quarrel for a straw, And fight it out to the extremity.

CHARLES LAMB.

22. He cannot flatter and speak fair, Smile in men's faces, smooth, deceive, and coy, Duck with French nods, and apish courtesy.

Richard III.

23. A primrose by the river's brim A yellow primrose is to him, And it is nothing more.

WORDSWORTH.

24. His young bosom feels the enchantment strong Of light, and joy, and minstrelsy and song.

PIERPONT--Airs of Palestine.

25. If he has any faults he leaves us in doubt, At least in six weeks we can't find them out.

GOLDSMITH.

26. The friend of man, the friend of truth, The friend of age, the guide of youth; Few hearts like his with virtue warm'd, Few heads with knowledge so inform'd.

BURNS.

27. If his body were opened, and you find so much blood in his liver as will clog the foot of a flea, I'll eat the rest of his anatomy.

Two Gentlemen of Verona.

28. He hums and he hankers, he frets and he cankers, You never can please him, do a' that you can; He's peevish and jealous of a' the young fellows.
