Popularne fragmenty
Strona 37 - As to pay, Sir, I beg leave to assure the Congress, that, as no pecuniary consideration could have tempted me to accept this arduous employment, at the expense of my domestic ease and happiness, I do not wish to make any profit from it. I will keep an exact account of my expenses. Those, I doubt not, they will discharge; and that is all I desire.
Strona 486 - Why should ye be stricken any more ? ye will revolt more and more : the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it ; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores : they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.
Strona 15 - They planted by your care! No, your oppressions planted them in America.

Strona 405 - And he spake of trees, from the cedar tree that is in Lebanon even unto the hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts, and of fowl, and of creeping things, and of fishes.
Strona 205 - For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
Strona 400 - O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
Strona 37 - But, lest some unlucky event should happen unfavourable to my reputation, I beg it may be remembered by every Gentleman in the room that I this day declare with the utmost sincerity, I do not think myself equal to the command I am honored with.
