Sivu 212 - Our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath left power to his Church to absolve all sinners, who truly repent and believe in him, of his great mercy forgive thee thine offences ; and by his authority committed to me, I absolve thee from all thy sins...
Sivu 116 - Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me.
Sivu 121 - If therefore thou offer thy gift at the altar, and there thou remember that thy brother hath anything against thee : leave there thy offering before the altar, and go first to be reconciled to thy brother, and then coming thou shalt offer thy gift.
Sivu 233 - Her sculpture - the crucifix nailed by her bed, Her paintings - one print of the thorn-crowned head; Her cushion - the pavement that wearies her knees, Her music - the Psalm, or the sigh of disease; The delicate lady lives mortified there, And the feast is forsaken for fasting and prayer. Yet not to the service of heart and of mind, Are the cares of that Heaven-minded virgin confined; Like Him whom she loves, to the mansions of grief She hastes with the tidings of joy and relief.
Sivu 136 - Whosoever is not ready to suffer all things, and to stand resigned to the will of his beloved, is not worthy to be called a lover.
Sivu 48 - Sacrifice and oblation thou wouldest not, but a body thou hast fitted to me : holocausts for sin did not please thee. Then said I, Behold, I come : in the head of the book it is written of me that I should do thy will, O God.
Sivu 233 - Her sculpture — the crucifix nail'd by her bed ; Her paintings — one print of the thorn-crowned head; Her cushion — the pavement that wearies her knees, Her music — the psalm, or the sigh of disease ; The delicate lady lives mortified there, And the feast is forsaken for fasting and prayer.
Sivu 234 - Behold her, ye worldly ! behold her, ye vain ! Who shrink from the pathway of virtue and pain ; Who yield up to pleasure your nights and your days, Forgetful of service, forgetful of praise. Ye lazy philosophers— self-seeking men, — Ye fireside philanthropists, great at the pen, How stands in the balance your eloquence weighed With the life and the deeds of that high-born maid ? THE PRETTY GIRL OF LOCH DAN.
Sivu 233 - Forgot are the claims of her riches and birth, For she barters for heaven the glory of earth. Those feet, that to music could gracefully move, Now bear her alone on the mission of love; Those hands, that once dangled the perfume and gem, Are tending the helpless, or lifted for them; That voice, that once echoed the song of the vain.
Sivu 232 - Joy revell'd around her, love shone at her side, And gay was her smile, as the glance of a bride ; And light was her step, in the mirthsounding hall, When she heard of the daughters of Vincent de Paul.
