Страница 68 - Whose adorning, let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the orna-ment of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
Страница 24 - The wrecks of matter, and the crush of worlds. What means this heaviness that hangs upon me ? This lethargy that creeps through all my senses? Nature oppress'd, and harass'd out with care, Sinks down to rest.
