A shot of a graceless, weirdly arresting intersection in downtown El Paso, from 214, feels less to have been discovered by Shore than to have happened to him, and an expansive view in which people disport on a Yosemite river beach is so rife with appeal that you can hardly start, let alone finish, looking at it.

The Porteous of Nobleness Chepman having found the necessary capital, and Myllar having obtained the type from France, probably from Rouen, they set up their press in a house at the foot of Blackfriars Wynd, in the Southgait, now the Cowgate, of Edinburgh, and on 4 April 1508 issued the first book known to have been printed in Scotland, The Maying or Disport of Chaucer, better known as The Complaint of the Black Knight, and written not by Chaucer but by Lydgate. This tract consists of fourteen leaves, and has Chepman's device on the title-page, and Myllar's device at the end. The only copy known has been held in the Library of the Faculty of Advocates at Edinburgh since 1788. Bound with this work are ten other unique pieces, eight of which are also from the Southgait press, but two only of all are perfect, The Maying or Disport of Chaucer and The Goldyn Targe of William Dunbar.

1, Number 1, February 1809, p. 30 He was assuredly no ordinary man, that he could so disport himself on the morning of his execution. It is universally believed in the North-East of Scotland that a reprieve was on its way to Banff at the time of the execution. The legend has it that Duff of Braco saw a lone rider coming from Turriff and correctly assumed that he carried a pardon for Jamie from the Lord of Grant.

This followed O'Donnell's 7 June column discussing efforts of women journalists and congresswomen to dispel "the gaudy stories of the gay and careless way in which the young ladies in uniform … disport themselves…." The allegations were refuted, but the "fat was in the fire.

Tennyson's Lane in memory of the poet is a high, slightly sunken, tree-tunnel lane that runs from Haslemere past the highest home, Aldworth House (today a couple of dwellings). The lane keeps to Arthur Paterson's description in 1905: > Trees meet overhead, copsewood surrounds it, and later, it is hedged by high > sandy banks thickly overgrown with plant and scrub; squirrels and rabbits, > and all other small woodland creatures, disport themselves over it. It > twists and turns, and to the stranger appears to lead nowhere in particular.

In the 17th century South Clerkenwell became a fashionable place of residence. Oliver Cromwell owned a house on Clerkenwell Close, just off the Green. Several aristocrats had houses there, most notably the Duke of Northumberland, as did people such as Erasmus Smith. Before Clerkenwell became a built-up area, it had a reputation as a resort a short walk out of the city, where Londoners could disport themselves at its spas, of which there were several, based on natural chalybeate springs, tea gardens and theatres.

Hat nicht mich zum Manne geschmiedet Die allmächtige Zeit Und das ewige Schicksal, Meine Herrn und deine? Wähntest du etwa, Ich sollte das Leben hassen, In Wüsten fliehen, Weil nicht alle Blütenträume reiften? Hier sitz' ich, forme Menschen Nach meinem Bilde, Ein Geschlecht, das mir gleich sei, Zu leiden, zu weinen, Zu genießen und zu freuen sich, Und dein nicht zu achten, Wie ich!"Interpretation of Prometheus – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe", Retrieved on 12 August 2017 Cover thy spacious heavens, Zeus, With clouds of mist, And like the boy who lops The thistles' heads, Disport with oaks and mountain- peaks; Yet thou must leave My earth still standing; My cottage, too, which was not raised by thee; Leave me my hearth, Whose kindly glow By thee is envied.

Michael Drayton makes a similar reference to the event in his The battaile of Agincourt, published in 1627. The Penguin book of Sick Verse includes a poem by William Lathum comparing life to a tennis-court: If in my weak conceit, (for selfe disport), The world I sample to a Tennis-court, Where fate and fortune daily meet to play, I doe conceive, I doe not much misse-say. All manner chance are Rackets, wherewithall They bandie men, from wall to wall; Some over Lyne, to honour and great place, Some under Lyne, to infame and disgrace; Some with a cutting stroke they nimbly sent Into the hazard placed at the end; ... The Scottish gothic novel The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner by James Hogg (1824) describes a tennis match that degenerates into violence. The detective story Dead Nick takes place in a tennis milieu.

In the New York Daily News however, Jack Mathews thought the film had a "convoluted screenplay" that went "0-4" on its segments, despite the "fine" performances from the cast. Carina Chocano agreed that the cast was of a "high-caliber" and "disport[ed] themselves admirably" in the Los Angeles Times, with special mention to Andy Garcia and Forest Whitaker, but ultimately felt that "the whole thing looks like a pirated knockoff" with "all the aesthetic innovation of a disposable razor commercial", showcasing "meaningless allegory, violence and pretension" that gets "more ludicrous by the minute" and is "good for an occasional laugh". Writing for Variety, Ronnie Scheib also agreed that the cast was "stellar" but deemed the film to be "morosely pretentious" and questioned who it was for as it "strains both credulity and patience". Meanwhile, Rex Reed of the New York Observer found nothing to like in the film, calling it "a load of amateurish bilge".
