I was among them a kind of prodigy , and I was referred to on disputed points as
an oracle . One thing , however , amidst the thick cloud of evils wherewith I was at

Popularne fragmenty
Strona 8 - In the worst inn's worst room, with mat half hung, The floors of plaister, and the walls of dung ; On once a flock-bed, but repaired with straw, With tape-tied curtains, never meant to draw ; The George and Garter dangling from that bed, Where tawdry yellow strove with dirty red, Great Villiers lies...
Strona 24 - Thornton. A SPORTING TOUR THROUGH THE NORTHERN PARTS OF ENGLAND AND GREAT PART OF THE HIGHLANDS OF SCOTLAND. By Colonel T. THORNTON, of Thornville Royal, in Yorkshire. With the Original Illustrations by GARRARD, and other Illustrations and Coloured Plates by GE LODGE.

Strona 50 - Bishop? I shudder, I start at the very thought ! Men may call me a knave or a fool, a rascal, a scoundrel, and I am content; but they shall never by my consent call me Bishop ! For my sake, for God's sake, for Christ's sake put a full end to this ! Let the Presbyterians do what they please, but let the Methodists know their calling better.
Strona 146 - Faithful are the wounds of a friend ; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
Strona 109 - And Jacob served seven years for Rachel ; and they seemed unto him but a few days, for the love he had for her.
Strona 194 - Master, all these have I observed from my youth. 21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shall have treasure in heaven : and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
