Էջ 54 - Matter of scorn, not to be given the Foe. However, I with thee have fix'd my lot, Certain to undergo like doom : If death Consort with thee, death is to me as life ; So forcible within my heart I feel The bond of Nature draw me to my own ; My own in thee, for what thou art is mine ; Our state cannot be sever'd ; we are one, One flesh; to lose thee were to lose myself.

Էջ 125 - But have I now seen death ? Is this the way I must return to native dust ? O sight Of terror, foul and ugly to behold, Horrid to think, how horrible to feel...
Էջ 10 - Tell, if ye saw, how came I thus, how here? Not of myself, by some great Maker then, In goodness and in power pre-eminent : Tell me, how may I know him, how adore, From whom I have that thus I move and live, And feel that I am happier than I know.
Էջ 164 - Henceforth I learn that to obey is best, And love with fear the only God, to walk As in his presence, ever to observe His providence, and on him sole depend...
