eulogium

Definitions

A eulogy.

Examples

“Oh, wonderful poet, thou shalt be immortal, if my eulogiums can make⟳ thee so!”

“Her eulogium on Rousseau was accidentally put⟳ into my hands, and her sentiments, the sentiments of too many of her sex, may serve⟳ as the text for a few comments.”

“Let⟳ the grave close⟳ over the hand that has laboured through feverish midnights,—over the warm heart that beat⟳ so painfully; let⟳ the ear be closed to that applause which was its sweetest music;—and then how lavish we grow⟳ of all that was before so harshly denied! Then the marble is carved with eulogium; then the life is written; and thousands are lavish of pity and sympathy: every thing is given when it is too late to give⟳ anything!”

“--and you have⟳ been weak enough, traitor, to listen⟳ to the eulogiums of a nurse on her child!"”
