Tiberius, 1147 3 | The boy at first himself repelled him; but when the other 1148 11 | surprised with joy and wonder, replied: "Are you that Bantius whom 1149 26 | liberty to respire, nor to repose ourselves, though victors; 1150 19 | over it, when his thoughts represented to him how dismal and foul 1151 22 | yet, notwithstanding this reprimand, Marcellus made it his glory 1152 14 | so highly deserved of the republic, liberty to relieve so great 1153 16 | separated from geometry, and, repudiated and neglected by philosophers, 1154 18 | writing on such subjects; but, repudiating as sordid and ignoble the 1155 25 | gained himself such high repute, that, when the time of 1156 18 | but he is said to have requested his friends and relations 1157 14 | the commonwealth did not require the service of cowardly 1158 11 | that we are unwilling to requite with favour those who have 1159 31 | leaving the fallen consul, and rescuing young Marcellus, who also 1160 17 | called Sambuca, from some resemblance it had to an instrument 1161 29 | to adjoin another to it, resenting the priests' opposition, 1162 31 | and pressed upon those who resisted.

No amount of investigation 1171 13 | resigned the consulate, retaining however his command. Being 1172 27 | Hannibal opportunity to retire in the silence of the night, 1173 8 | returned, and the Gaesatae retiring as soon as they were certified 1174 17 | distance, and sounded a retreat to his forces on land. They 1175 26 | Marcellus, after he had retreated into his camp, called his 1176 30 | This incensed Marcellus to revenge; and he therefore moved 1177 6 | that the magistrates should reverence the gods, than that they 1178 5 | nation the same pious and reverent sentiments of the gods with 1179 12 | their calamities, a great revival of confidence, as they began 1180 25 | the Samnites, which had revolted, came into his power; in 1181 20 | them all at liberty, and rewarded Nicias with ample lands 1182 3 | crowns and other honourable rewards; and, his good qualities 1183 20 | Nicias with ample lands and rich presents. This history is 1184 19 | commiseration at seeing all the riches accumulated during a long 1185 7 | his wings of horse, and, riding about, drew out his wings 1186 6 | former, because he had not rightly held out the entrails of 1187 24 | restored to them, and their rights, laws, and goods that were 1188 24 | when these were transacted, rising from his seat, he passed 1189 24 | at length by Marcellus's rivals, they began their impeachment, 1190 24 | his presence now, in his robe of state, appeared far more 1191 17 | was discharged a piece of rock of ten talents weight, then 1192 15 | to the punishment of the rods and axe.

The first was Romulus, after having slain Acron, 1195 18 | they did but see a little rope or a piece of wood from 1196 17 | that as Archimedes used ropes stretched at length in playing 1197 28 | assembled themselves, Bibulus rose and accused him.

For among 1203 25 | to turn his triumph into sadness. On these letters being 1204 17 | drew off his ships to a safer distance, and sounded a 1205 18 | renown of more than human sagacity, he yet would not deign 1206 12 | attack by these others who sallied out later. Here Hannibal' 1207 12 | enemy. By and by the foot, sallying out of another gate, with 1208 11 | honour, one day when Bantius saluted him, he asked him who he 1209 17 | ships, which was called Sambuca, from some resemblance it 1210 25 | the great cities of the Samnites, which had revolted, came 1211 32 | Syracuse, were set up in Samothrace, in the temple of the gods, 1212 16 | sustaining experimentally, to the satisfaction of the senses, conclusions 1213 20 | sharpened his voice. When he saw the whole theatre struck 1214 27 | The day breaking, a scarlet toga, the sign of instant 1215 11 | very man, and showing his scars: "Why, then," said Marcellus, " 1216 10 | that he feared Fabius as a schoolmaster, Marcellus as an adversary: 1217 18 | soul, and such treasures of scientific knowledge, that though these 1218 31 | on the top of it sat a scout concealed from the sight 1219 24 | transacted, rising from his seat, he passed as a private 1220 7 | directly to Acerrae, a city seated on the north of the river 1221 16 | purpose certain curves and sections of lines.

Thus Tiberius Sempronius, whom for his probity and 1227 24 | expecting at the doors of the senate-house; not in the least discomposed 1228 18 | preoccupation, and, in the truest sense, divine possession with 1229 16 | the satisfaction of the senses, conclusions too intricate 1230 13 | people, to declare their sentence openly, Marcellus voluntarily 1231 5 | same pious and reverent sentiments of the gods with the Greeks; 1232 16 | that mechanics came to be separated from geometry, and, repudiated 1233 24 | with perfect calmness and serenity attending the issue of the 1234 32 | But some of the Numidians, setting upon these that were carrying 1235 5 | likewise two Gauls, one of each sex, in the market called the 1236 | shall 1237 32 | observe its strength and shape, he allowed not a word to 1238 20 | but by degrees raised and sharpened his voice. When he saw the 1239 23 | but in their ovation, a sheep: hence they named it Ovation, 1240 26 | Canusium: and as Hannibal often shifted his camp, and still declined 1241 3 | endeavoured by various shifts and exceptions to elude 1242 23 | sounding; but went afoot with shoes on, many flutes or pipes 1243 17 | its foundation to pieces, shook out all its fastenings, 1244 13 | and used to fight with short darts hand to hand. This 1245 12 | another gate, with a loud shout joined in the battle. And 1246 23 | because they act it with shouting and cries of Eua: for so 1247 17 | to the walls, instantly a shower of darts and other missile 1248 18 | multitude of darts which he showers at a single moment upon 1249 11 | to be that very man, and showing his scars: "Why, then," 1250 20 | Marcellus seems first to have shown to the Greeks that his countrymen 1251 20 | the gate, not omitting any shriek or gesture of men possessed 1252 5 | from some prophecies in the Sibyls' books, put alive underground 1253 25 | right course to heal the sickness of his country. And first, 1254 18 | intricate questions, or more simple and lucid explanations. 1255 28 | himself answered, briefly and simply, but the first and most 1256 8 | attacked them, obtained a singular and unheard-of victory. 1257 7 | with him. The Gauls were singularly skilful in horsemanship, 1258 27 | and spent the summer at Sinuessa, engaged in restoring them. ~ 1259 18 | his familiar and domestic Siren made him forget his food 1260 33 | Marcellus, son of Octavia, sister of Augustus, whom she bore 1261 7 | the rest of the horse and six hundred light-armed foot, 1262 29 | age, for he had passed the sixtieth year of his life when he 1263 15 | Appius: Marcellus, with sixty galleys, each with five 1264 30 | head appeared of unusual size, and all the other indications 1265 19 | kill, misuse, or make a slave of any of the Syracusans. 1266 19 | reluctance, that the money and slaves should be made prey; giving 1267 6 | which he was recalled, but slighted and contemned them, they 1268 21 | never tasted of luxury and sloth, and, as Euripides said 1269 26 | was not more painful and smarting than his wounds. ~ 1270 18 | have discovered it; by so smooth and so rapid a path he leads 1271 16 | ship in a straight line, as smoothly and evenly as if she had 1272 27 | a tribune of soldiers, snatching an ensign, meets them, and 1273 24 | benefits. Thus Marcellus, softened by their tears and distress, 1274 14 | killed by the enemy, or sold out of Italy; and commanded 1275 9 | The procession advancing solemnly, he, carrying this trophy, 1276 18 | ratio which the containing solid bears to the contained. ~ 1277 | something 1278 9 | for the occasion, and with songs of victory celebrated the 1279 18 | subjects; but, repudiating as sordid and ignoble the whole trade 1280 19 | the trumpets everywhere to sound, and thus frightened them 1281 17 | to a safer distance, and sounded a retreat to his forces 1282 19 | places upon the beautiful and spacious city below, he is said to 1283 13 | than three hundred horse, Spaniards and Numidians mixed, deserted 1284 23 | sacrifices appointed by the Spartan legislator are to those 1285 20 | kept in watch, proceeded to speak irreligiously to the vulgar 1286 28 | When they made an end of speaking, the accuser's hope to obtain 1287 30 | a number of archers and spearmen, confident that the commodiousness 1288 20 | Cretans; and they show some spears and brazen helmets, inscribed 1289 4 | was a sort of miracle, and special good fortune for Rome, that 1290 18 | ambition in those purer speculations where there can be no reference 1291 20 | and here Nicias, making a speech to the people concerning 1292 20 | Meriones, and (with the same spelling as in Latin) of Ulysses, 1293 18 | would place over his tomb a sphere containing a cylinder, inscribing 1294 19 | mathematical instruments, dials, spheres, and angles, by which the 1295 27 | first elephant with the spike at the bottom of the ensign 1296 13 | into his place; and, in spite of the magistrates, succeeded 1297 9 | gave a great part of the spoil to their associate cities, 1298 19 | up entirely to wine and sport, Marcellus laid hold of, 1299 4 | the seed of Gallic tumults sprang up, and began again to trouble 1300 30 | either side, and there were springs of water seen trickling 1301 6 | his command, because the squeak of a mouse was heard, and 1302 27 | the bottom of the ensign staff, puts him to flight.
