الصفحة 512 - O Cuckoo ! shall I call thee bird, Or but a wandering voice? While I am lying on the grass, Thy two-fold shout I hear, From hill to hill it seems to pass, At once far off and near.
الصفحة 235 - For the Lord will not cast off for ever: But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies. For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
الصفحة 330 - And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

الصفحة 349 - Strong minds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands. Men whom the lust of office does not kill, Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy, Men who possess opinions and a will, Men who have honor, men who will not lie. Men who can stand before a demagogue And damn his treacherous flatteries without winking, Tall men, sun-crowned, who live above the fog In public duty and in private thinking; For while the rabble with their thumb-worn creeds, Their large professions and their little deeds, Mingle...
