Էջ 79 - Things and actions are what they are, and the consequences of them will be what they will be : why then should we desire to be deceived...
Էջ 72 - Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow myself before the high God ? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old ?
