עמוד 179 - Therefore, behold the days come, saith the Lord, that it shall no more be called Tophet, nor The valley of the son of Hinnom, but The valley of slaughter ; for they shall bury in Tophet, till there be no place.
עמוד 171 - How can I?' rejoined my master; 'it is now too late, and all is over.' I said, ' Not our will, but God's be done ! ' and he answered, ' Yes, not mine be done — but I will try.' His Lordship did indeed make several efforts to speak, but could only repeat two or three words at a time, such as, 'My wife! — my child! — my sister! — you know all —you must say all — you know my wishes :' the rest was quite unintelligible.
עמוד 141 - River where ford there was none: But ere he alighted at Netherby gate The bride had consented, the gallant came late: For a laggard in love, and a dastard in war Was to wed the fair Ellen of brave Lochinvar.
עמוד 162 - Lord Byron told me that he had occasionally written short poems, besides a great many stanzas in Spenser's measure, relative to the countries he had visited. 'They are not worth troubling you with, but you shall have them all with you, if you like.
עמוד 177 - And it came to pass, that the beggar died and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; and in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
עמוד 179 - And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. So is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
עמוד 165 - Byron, have the effect of deterring you from assuming a station in modern literature, which the universal voice of my contemporaries forbids me either to stoop or aspire to. I am, and I desire to be, nothing. " I did not ask Lord Byron to assist me in sending a remittance for your journey ; because there are men, however excellent, from whom we would never receive an obligation in the worldly sense of the word ; and I am as jealous for my friend as for myself.
עמוד 177 - Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne; He seeing this before, spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither did his flesh see corruption.
עמוד 169 - Zante for Dr. Thomas ; after expressing my fears lest his lordship should get worse, he desired me to consult the doctors, which I did, and was told there was no occasion for calling in any person, as they hoped all would be well in a few days. Here I should remark, that his lordship repeatedly said in the course of the day, he was sure the doctors did not understand his disease; to which I answered, then, my lord, have other advice by all means.
עמוד 165 - Arno for him. But the material part of my visit consists in a message which he desires me to give you, and which, I think, ought to add to your determination — for such a one I hope you have formed — of restoring your shattered health and spirits by a migration to these 'regions mild of calm and serene air'.
