The obedient court, at its next session, condemned five women, all of blameless lives, all declaring their innocence. Four were convicted easily enough; Rebecca Nurse was, at first, acquitted. "The...
Halaman 142 - ... conscience with contentation ; which can as well make our lives happy and comfortable in a mean estate, as in a great abundance. But if you weigh things aright, and sum up all the turnings of divine Providence together, you shall find great advantage. — The Lord hath brought us to a good land ; a land, where we enjoy outward peace and liberty, and above all, the blessings of the gospel, without the burden of impositions in matters of religion.

Halaman 140 - You are the chief of two families ; I had by your mother three sons and three daughters, and I had with her a large portion of outward estate. These now are all gone ; mother gone ; brethren and sisters gone ; you only are left to see the vanity of these temporal things, and learn wisdom thereby, which may be of more use to you, through the Lord's blessing, than all that inheritance which might have befallen you : and for which this may stay and quiet your heart, that God is able to give you more...
Halaman 142 - I would have yon to love him again, and serve him, and trust him for the time to come. Love and prize that word of truth, which only makes known to you the precious and eternal thoughts and councils of the light inaccessible.
