And who art thou beside the Arab girls, The daughters of those tribes whose standards wave Above brave bands of horsemen as they speed? Look at thy similars.

For the power of increasing, nourishing, and generating similars, and the one prior to these three, viz.

For the amplitude of power consists in producing all things from itself, and in giving subsistence to similars, prior to things which are dissimilar.

Pitt, without specifying his reasons, avowed that he should feel it his duty to oppose any grant of such a character; but another member of Parliament, Mr. Rolle, one of the members for Devonshire, being trammelled by no such feeling of responsibility, expressed a similar resolution in language which contained an allusion perfectly understood on both sides of the House.

But such an objection could have had no force, even in the mind of him who raised it, since the proceedings of the two Convention Parliaments of 1660 and 1689 labored under a similar defect; and yet their acts had been recognized as valid, and ratified by subsequent Parliaments.

He did not deny that a similar measure had been enacted under William III., again in 1715, and again in 1745; but he contended that "the present peril bore no resemblance to the dangers of those times.

And a similar shortness of existence was to be the lot of the separate independence of her Parliament.

That similar means were to some extent employed to win over opponents of the government in Ireland cannot, it must be confessed, be denied, though the temptations held out to converts oftener took the shape of titles, promotions, appointments, and court favors than of actual money.

The Scotch Estates, therefore, had absolutely regarded the possible separation of the two kingdoms as a contingency which might become not undesirable; and, though it was too ticklish an argument to bring forward, it may very possibly have occurred to Pitt that a similar vote of the Irish Parliament was not impossible.

But this argument was clearly open to the reply that the adoption of that liberal policy had been a direct effect of the Union, and would have been impracticable without it, and was, therefore, a strong inducement to the adoption of a similar Union with Ireland, where the existing evils were at least as great as those which, a century before, had kept down Scotland.

" On that occasion Pitt had argued, from the great subsequent increase in the population and wealth of Edinburgh and Glasgow, and in the prosperity of the whole country of Scotland, that a similar result might be looked for in Ireland.

As has been intimated in a former page, it will be seen hereafter that in 1839 a similar claim to be allowed to remove some of the ladies of the royal household, and the rejection of that claim by the sovereign, prevented Sir R. Peel from forming an administration.

It appeared to me quite natural to say, "Here is a State provision for schools,why not have a similar provision for churches?

It is written in the eight-footed trochaic metre, similar to that in which the Spanish tragedies are written.

By the bye, his poetical tale of Alonzo and Imogen is evidently taken from a similar subject in the Volks-mährchen.

A great number of the grandees, who lived far from the court, either in state offices or on their own fiefs, had establishments similar to that of the King.

Another said, 'Go away with you; you must have lost your senses,' or similar words, which made the husbands lose their wagers.

They never acknowledged the fact to each other, when they exchanged moralities, and discussed Veronica, but each was afraid, and suspected the other of similar cowardice.

I could not, offhand, give a list of seventeen other books of similar power to make up the score.

Carlyle's French Revolution and Past and Present burnt with similar flame; so did Ruskin's Unto this Last and the series of Fors Clavigera; so did Mazzini's God and the People, Karl Marx's Kapital, Henry George's Progress and Poverty, Tolstoy's What shall we do?

To be accepted and honoured by the same mind, and even for similar service, the two apparent opposites must have had something in common.

They are the mere samples of hundreds of similar ones published during the same period, with which, as the preceding are quite sufficient to show the commonness of inhuman floggings in the slave states, we need not burden the reader.

Each of the state constitutions has a clause of similar purport.

But what considerations guide the moral judgment? Our moral judgments, as we have also seen, are the result of a logical process of reference to a class or of association with similars.
