Strona 304 - ... for a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God ; not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre, but a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate, holding fast the faithful word, as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine, both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.
Strona 342 - For he who fights and runs away May live to fight another day ; But he who is in battle slain Can never rise and fight again.
Strona 121 - Soft is the strain when Zephyr gently blows, And the smooth stream in smoother numbers flows ; But when loud surges lash the sounding shore, The hoarse, rough verse should like the torrent roar : When Ajax strives some rock's vast- weight to throw, The line too labours, and the words move slow ; Not so, when swift Camilla scours the plain, Flies o'er th' unbending corn, and skims along the main.
Strona 116 - We deny the right of any portion of the species to ; decide for another portion, or any individual for another individual, what is and what is not their ' proper sphere.'

Strona 186 - We are spirits clad in veils : Man by man was never seen ; All our deep communion fails To remove the shadowy screen.
Strona 240 - OF Heaven or Hell I have no power to sing, I cannot ease the burden of your fears, Or make quick-coming death a little thing, Or bring again the pleasure of past years, Nor for my words shall ye forget your tears, Or hope again for aught that I can say, The idle singer of an empty day.
Strona 299 - there is some strangeness of proportion,' and of those who are born of the spirit — of those, that is to say, who like himself are dynamic forces — Christ says that they are like the wind that 'bloweth where it listeth, and no man can tell whence it cometh and whither it goeth.
