Sivu 4 - Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear ; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house ; So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty : for he is thy Lord ; and worship thou him.
Sivu 6 - ... change them ; they must go on and defend cruelty with cruelty ; they cannot alter the habit. It is then grown necessary, they must be as ill as those have made them : and in the end they will grow more hateful to themselves than to their subjects. Whereas, on the contrary, the =° merciful prince is safe in love, not in fear. He needs no emissaries, spies, intelligencers to entrap true subjects. He fears no libels, no treasons. His people speak what they think, and talk openly what they do in...
Sivu 17 - French vessels in 17o6, which were carrying on innocent commerce under the faith of treaties, and under the protection of the law of nations...
Sivu 29 - ... Consider, that whatever has been said either as to the strength, the quality, or the quantity of this infernal fire, it is nothing in comparison to the intenseness it will have as being the instrument of the Divine Justice. . . . [I]t will have its rise from the foot of the throne of God, that is to say, it will receive an incredible vigour from the omnipotency of God ; working, not with its own activity, but, as an instrument, with the activity of its agent. . . . (13) ... as God makes use of...
Sivu 26 - ... unfortunate victims ; and this by reason of the great number of the damned to whom this great pit will become narrow and strait, as also because the fire itself will be to them like chains and fetters.
Sivu 27 - That will be true ... by a contrary miracle to what was wrought in the Babylonian furnace, for there, by the command of God, the heat was taken from the fire, but not the light of brightness: but in hell, the fire will lose its light, but not its heat. Moreover, this same fire, burning with brimstone, will have a searching flame, which being mingled with the rolling smoke of that infernal cave, will . . . raise a storm of darkness, according to what is written . . . [in] Jude xiii.
Sivu 26 - Those miserable wretches will not only be straitened, but also be immoveable; and, therefore, if a blessed saint, as St. Anselm says, in his book of Similitudes, will be strong enough ... to move the whole earth: a damned soul will be so weak, as not to be able even to remove from the eye a worm that is gnawing it.
Sivu 27 - ... themselves. The being in ill company is so great a pain, that one would think the very plants on earth are sensible of it, whilst they withdraw themselves, and fly from those that are noxious or hurtful to them. (15) ... all laws being overturned [in hell], and all reason banished, there will be no regard to consanguinity, parentage, country, or to any tie or motive which might mitigate their desperate rage against each other. . . . their very bowlings and groans will make them intolerable.
Sivu 29 - Christians penetrate our very bones, our marrow, and even the very principle of our life and being. . . . Every one that is damned will be like a lighted furnace, which has its own flames in itself; all that filthy blood will boil in the veins, the brains in the skull, the heart in the breast, the bowels within that unfortunate body, surrounded with an abyss of fire. . . . (13) Consider, that whatever has been said either as to the strength, the quality, or the quantity of this infernal fire, it...
Sivu 28 - ... intenseness, and endless as to duration. ... As there is nothing moderate in the torments, so there is no rest in the tormented, who are continually kept, not barely alive, but in their full senses, to have greater feeling of their misery, from which they cannot so much as for one moment depart.
