Strona 171 - Father ! let Thy spirit Be with me then to comfort and uphold ; No gate of pearl, no branch of palm I merit. Nor street of shining gold. Suffice it if — my good and ill unreckoned, And both forgiven through Thy abounding grace — I find myself by hands familiar beckoned Unto my fitting place.

They put Kristno, and his family, into confinement, and then dragged them to the Danish magistrate, who, instead of punishing, dismissed them, with commendations for losing cast.

Strona 23 - I would rather be a Missionary of the cross, than a King on a throne. Let the men of this world possess its glittering toys; let the miser grasp his cankered gold: let the voluptuary enjoy his sordid pleasures; let the ambitious ascend to the pinnacle of earthly honor; but let me enjoy the sweet satisfaction of directing the poor pagans to the 'Lamb of God.
Strona 18 - O THOU, my soul, forget no more The Friend who all thy sorrows bore ; Let every idol be forgot, — But, O my soul, forget him not.
