Էջ 297 - That palter with us in a double sense ; That keep the word of promise to our ear, And break it to our hope.
Էջ 156 - And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
Էջ 64 - Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
