Quotations for epithet

Out of his surname they have coined an epithet for a knave, and out of his Christian name a synonyme for the Devil. [ Macaulay ]

We lose in depth of expression when we go to inferior animals for comparisons with human beauty. Homer calls Juno ox-eyed; and the epithet suits well with the eyes of that goddess, because she may be supposed, with all her beauty, to want a certain humanity. Her large eyes look at you with a royal indifference. [ Leigh Hunt ]
