She did but ope an eye, and put A clear beam forth, then straight up shut For the long dark : ne'er more to see Through glasses of mortality.
275 ページ - Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul and with all thy mind, and thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
210 ページ - GOD, but a tear compels him : that moves him, but this constrains him. EPIG. 8. Earth is an island ported round with fears ; Thy way to Heav'n is through the sea of tears ; It is a stormy passage, where is found The wreck of many a ship, but no man drown'd.
356 ページ - English, for her standing, a very eminent scold. She began to break her mind very freely both to me and to her servants about two months after our nuptials : and though I have been accustomed to this humour of...
37 ページ - O that you may both be zealous and successful in your efforts for the salvation of souls, and may your own lives be holy, and your hearts greatly blessed while you are engaged in administering to the good of others ! I should have been very glad to have had it in my power to lessen your fatigue and cheer your spirits by my exertions on Monday last. I will hope that this pleasure is still reserved for me. In general, I feel a calm confidence in the providential care and continued mercy of God, and...
