Pagina 108 - Christianity, and which may not seem to have received a full and sufficient answer, if any such there shall be unto the year preceding his election ; as likewise to be ready to satisfy any real scruples or objections, in a private way, that may be brought from time to time by any fair and...
Pagina 124 - must become of me, who can say it by heart; and who often repeat it to myself with a delight, which grows by what it feeds upon?" " Die," returned the growler,
Pagina 236 - A large Eolian harp is fixed in one of the windows, and, when the weather permits them to be opened, it breathes its deep tones to the gale, swelling and softening as that rises and falls.
Pagina 423 - And besides this, giving all diligence, ADD to your faith virtue; AND to virtue knowledge; AND to knowledge temperance; AND to temperance patience; AND to patience godliness; AND to godliness brotherly kindness; AND to brotherly kindness charity.
