עמוד 227 - Entreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee; for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge. Thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God. Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried. The Lord do so to me, and more also, if aught but death part thee and me.
עמוד 203 - The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them ; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing : the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the excellency of our God.
עמוד 23 - As breaks the varied scene upon her sight, Upheaved and spread in verdure and in light For I have taught her, with delighted eye, To gaze upon the mountains, to behold, With deep affection, the pure ample sky, And clouds along its blue abysses rolled, To love the song of waters, and to hear The melody of winds with charmed ear.
עמוד 196 - And hung his bow upon thine awful front; And spoke in that loud voice, which seemed to him Who dwelt in Patmos for his Saviour's sake, The sound of many waters ; and had bade Thy flood to chronicle the ages back, And notch His centuries in the eternal rocks.
עמוד 44 - ... continent, and overwhelms Its cities — who forgets not, at the sight Of these tremendous tokens of thy power, His pride, and lays his strifes and follies by ? Oh, from these sterner aspects of thy face Spare me and mine, nor let us need the wrath Of the mad unchained elements to teach Who rules them. Be it ours to meditate, In these calm shades, thy milder majesty, And to the beautiful order of thy works Learn to conform the order of our lives.
עמוד 125 - Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.
עמוד 271 - The path of the just is as the shining light which shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
עמוד 272 - Most precious the opportunity of becoming wise, in turning many to righteousness, and of shining, at last, as the brightness of the firmament, and as the stars, forever and ever.
עמוד 174 - ... dust ye bow ; That God of gods commands your homage now. But, brighter tidings still ! He tells of One whose precious blood was spilt In lavish streams upon Judea's hill, A ransom for your guilt ; — Who triumphed o'er the grave, and broke its chain, Who conquered Death and Hell, and rose again.
עמוד 173 - GREECE ! hear that joyful sound, A stranger's voice upon thy sacred hill, Whose tones shall bid the slumbering nations round, Wake with convulsive thrill. Athenians ! gather there, he brings you words Brighter than all your boasted lore affords. He brings you news of One Above Olympian Jove. One in whose light Your gods shall fade like stars before the sun ; On your bewilder'd night That UNKNOWN GOD of whom ye darkly dream, In all his burning radiance shall beam.
