Sivu 247 - I, Washed headlong from on board, Of friends, of hope, of all bereft, His floating home for ever left. No braver chief could Albion boast Than he with whom he went, Nor ever ship left Albion's coast With warmer wishes sent. He loved them both, but both in vain, Nor him beheld, nor her again.
Sivu 363 - But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed then Eve. And Adam was not deceived ; but the woman, being deceived, was in the transgression ; notwithstanding she shall be saved in child-bearing, if they continue in faith, and charity, and holiness with sobriety.
Sivu 353 - So saying, with dispatchful looks in haste She turns, on hospitable thoughts intent What choice to choose for delicacy best, What order so contrived as not to mix Tastes, not well joined, inelegant, but bring Taste after taste upheld with kindliest change...
Sivu 115 - A' lover* masculine so disappointed can speak and urge explanation ; a lover feminine can say nothing ; if she did, the result would be shame and anguish, inward remorse for self-treachery. Nature would brand such demonstration as a rebellion against her instincts, and would vindictively repay it afterwards by the thunderbolt of self-contempt smiting suddenly in secret. Take the matter <is you find it : ask no questions ; utter no remonstrances : it is your best wisdom.
Sivu 363 - Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

Sivu 162 - ... groans, seemed to cap the climax of noise and zeal. " Sleeping on the brink of sin, Tophet gaped to take us in ; Mercy to our rescue flew,— Broke the snare, and brought us through. Here, as in a lion's den, Undevonr'd we still remain ; Pass secure the watery flood, Hanging on the arm of God.
Sivu 161 - Bill's has fun' liberty!" rung from the chapel, and out all the assembly broke again. "What a mercy is this! What a heaven of bliss ! How unspeakably happy am I ! Gathered into the fold , With thy people enroll'd , With thy people to live and to die!
Sivu 33 - As to the sufferers, whose sole inheritance was labour, and who had lost that inheritance — who could not get work, and consequently could not get wages, and consequently could not get bread — they were left to suffer on ; perhaps inevitably left : it would not do to stop the progress of invention, to damage science by discouraging its improvements ; the war could not be terminated, efficient relief could not be raised : there was no help then ; so the unemployed underwent their destiny — ate...
Sivu 248 - semblance in another's case. No voice divine the storm allay'd, No- light propitious shone; When, snatch'd from all effectual aid, We perish'd each alone : But I beneath a rougher sea, And whelm'd in deeper gulfs than he.
