Popularne fragmenty
Strona 213 - The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

Strona 206 - Insomuch as they justified a speedy fruition of their goods even for their pleasure, as men that thought they held their lives but by the day. As for pains, no man was forward in any action of honour to take any because they thought it uncertain whether they should die or not before they achieved it. But what any man knew to be delightful and to be profitable to pleasure, that was made both profitable and honourable. Neither the fear of the gods nor laws of men awed any man...
Strona 198 - Aleam, quod mirere, sobrii inter seria exercent, tanta lucrandi perdendive temeritate, ut, cum omnia defecerunt, extremo ac novissimo iactu de libertate ac de corpore contendant.
Strona 202 - Lemnos, and elsewhere; but so great a plague and mortality of men was never remembered to have happened in any place before. For at first, neither were the physicians able to cure it, through ignorance of what it was, but died fastest themselves, as being the men that most approached the sick, nor any other art of man availed •whatsoever.
Strona 185 - Mais que les mères daignent nourrir leurs enfans, les mœurs vont se réformer d'elles-mêmes, les sentimens de la nature se réveiller dans tous les cœurs, l'Etat va se repeupler; ce premier point, ce point seul va tout reunir (a).
