In this chapter, as well as in the next, wherein Hume's atheistic doctrine is
considered, the instructed reader may perhaps desire a stricter process of
analytic reasoning; but undoubtedly it is robust good sense which is here brought
to bear ...

Popularne fragmenty
Strona 239 - And, as I mused it in his antique tongue, I saw, in gradual vision through my tears, The sweet, sad years, the melancholy years, Those of my own life, who by turns had flung A shadow across me. Straightway I was 'ware, So weeping, how a mystic Shape did move Behind me, and drew me backward by the hair: And a voice said in mastery, while I strove, — 'Guess now who holds thee?' — 'Death,' I said. But, there, The silver answer rang, — 'Not Death, but Love.
Strona 19 - My God, the spring of all my joys, The life of my delights, The glory of my brightest days, And comfort of my nights.
Strona 20 - Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ, my God : All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood.
Strona 19 - See the wretch, that long has tost On the thorny bed of pain, At length repair his vigour lost, And breathe and walk again : The meanest floweret of the vale, The simplest note that swells the gale, The common sun, the air, the skies, To him are opening paradise.

Strona 11 - Prosperity is not without many fears and distastes ; and adversity is not without comforts and hopes. We see, in needleworks and embroideries, it is more pleasing to have a lively work upon a sad and solemn ground, than to have a dark and melancholy work upon a lightsome ground : judge, therefore, of the pleasure of the heart bv the pleasure of the eye.
Strona 20 - My faith would lay her hand On that dear head of thine, While like a penitent I stand And there confess my sin.
Strona 10 - Young men are fitter to invent, than to judge; fitter for execution than for counsel; and fitter for new projects than for settled business...
