עמוד 35 - The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
עמוד 162 - And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all. And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul's neck, and kissed him, sorrowing most of all for the words which he spake, that they should see his face no more.
עמוד 116 - And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell whether God will be gracious to me, that the child may live? 23 But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.
עמוד 34 - And Jacob served seven years for Rachel ; and they seemed unto him but a few days, for the love he had to her.
עמוד 69 - ... what shall we eat, and what shall we drink, and wherewithal shall we be clothed...
עמוד 182 - Madonna, turning her mild face upward and opening her arms to welcome the divine glory ; but do not impose on us any gesthetic rules which shall banish from the region of Art those old women scraping carrots with their work-worn hands, those heavy clowns taking holiday in a dingy pot-house, those rounded backs and stupid weather-beaten faces that have bent over the spade and done the rough work of the world — those homes with their tin pans, their brown pitchers, their rough curs, and their clusters...
עמוד 35 - I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.
עמוד 84 - THE dairy was certainly worth looking at: it was a scene to sicken for with a sort of calenture in hot and dusty streets - such coolness, such purity, such fresh fragrance of new-pressed cheese, of firm butter, of wooden vessels perpetually bathed in pure water; such soft colouring of red earthenware and creamy surfaces, brown wood and polished tin, grey limestone and rich orange-red rust on the iron weights and hooks and hinges.
עמוד 30 - ... see where our blessed Lord stands and weeps, and stretches out his arms toward you. Hear what he says : ' How often would I have gathered you as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not !'.... and ye would not !" she repeated, in a tone of pleading reproach, turning her eyes on the people again.
עמוד 389 - The horror of this cold, and darkness, and solitude - out of all human reach - became greater every long minute. It was almost as if she were dead already, and knew that she was dead, and longed to get back to life again. But no: she was alive still; she had not taken the dreadful leap. She felt a strange contradictory wretchedness and exultation: wretchedness, that she did not dare to face death; exultation, that she was still in life - that she might yet know light and warmth again.
