עמוד 124 - For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall.
עמוד 339 - For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away? 26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels. 27 But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

עמוד 65 - Fortune's gem, Ambition's plume, Nor CythereVs fading bloom, • Be objects of my pray'r : Let Av'rice, Vanity, and Pride, These glitt'ring envy'd toys divide, The dull rewards of Care. To me thy better gifts impart, Each moral beauty of the heart By studious thought refin'd; For Wealth, the smiles of glad Content, For Pow'r, its amplest, best extent, An empire o'er my mind.
עמוד 36 - Thy gentlest, best-lov'd attribute, To pity and forgive. 5 From that blest source, propitious hope Appears serenely bright, And sheds her soft and cheering beam O'er sorrow's dismal night. 6 Our hearts adore thy mercy, LORD! And bless the friendly ray, Which ushers in the smiling morn Of everlasting day.
עמוד 132 - In the midst of this tremendous scene my execrable guide addressed me in the following manner. " Retire with me, O rash unthinking mortal, from the vain allurements of a deceitful world, and learn that pleasure was not designed the portion of human life.
