עמוד 291 - toll'd the hour for retiring ; And we heard the distant and random gun That the foe was sullenly firing. Slowly and sadly we laid him down, From the field of his fame fresh and gory ; We carved not a line, we raised not a stone, But we left him alone with his glory. CHARLES WOLFE.
עמוד 368 - that man by whom the offence cometh." If we shall suppose that American slavery is one of those offences which, in the providence of God, must needs come, but which, having continued through His appointed time, He now wills to remove, and that He gives to North and South this terrible war as
עמוד 72 - the procession wound over the Mount of Olives; the people shouting and praising God, saying, "Hosanna to the Son of David. Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven, and glory in the highest." Then some of the Pharisees, who mingled with the crowd, indignant that such
עמוד 280 - the heath, and near his favorite tree; Another came, nor yet beside the rill, Nor up the lawn, nor at the wood was he.

עמוד 35 - God. He is the Rock, His work is perfect : For all His ways are judgment : A God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is He. Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations : Ask thy father, and he will show thee ; thy elders, and they will tell thee.
עמוד 321 - shall voice aloud how good He is, how great should be, Enlarged winds, that curl the flood, Know no such liberty. Stone walls do not a prison make, Nor iron bars a cage ; Minds innocent and quiet take That for an heritage : If I have freedom in
עמוד 47 - Jonathan, thou wast slain in thine high places. I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan. Very pleasant hast thou been unto me. Thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women. How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished !
עמוד 278 - from all creatures hides the book of Fate, All but the page prescrib'd, their present state; From brutes what men, from men what spirits know, Or who could suffer being here below? The lamb thy riot dooms to bleed to-day, Had he thy reason, would he skip and play? Pleas'd to the last, he crops the flow'ry
