Halaman 75 - Lady Clara Vere de Vere, When thus he met his mother's view, She had the passions of her kind, She spake some certain truths of you.

Halaman 298 - God is good," in ecstasy she goes. Oh ! there are endless means and ways, some stormy and some sweet, Through which God's guiding hand conducts His favoured children's feet ; Thorns are in all, but some have few to tread down as they go, And every shrub or tree they pass its blossoms o'er them throw. The bleeding feet, the aching brow, the desert's scorching air, The tempter's lures, the inward strife, they are not doom'd 93 Which are most blest ? We dare not say.
Halaman 211 - And now I exhort you to be of good cheer. For there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but only of the ship. 23 For an Angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, stood by me this night, 24 Saying : Fear not, Paul, thou must be brought before Cesar : and behold God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.
