Էջ 31 - Free-will they one way disavow, Another, nothing else allow. All piety consists therein In them, in other men all sin.
Էջ 244 - Where joy, heart's ease, and comforts grow, You'd scorn proud towers, And seek them in these bowers, Where winds sometimes our woods perhaps may shake, But blustering care could never tempest make, Nor murmurs e'er come nigh us, Saving of fountains that glide by us.
