Halaman 150 - Merciful heaven! What, man! ne'er pull your hat upon your brows; Give sorrow words: the grief that does not speak Whispers the o'erfraught heart, and bids it break.
Halaman 102 - And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
Halaman 162 - But whether on the scaffold high, Or in the battle's van, The fittest place where man can die Is where he dies for man ! THE CHARCOAL MAN.— JT TROWRRIDG*.

They are with us in this life, will be with us at its close ; and in that scene of inconceivable solemnity, which lies yet farther onward — we shall still find ourselves surrounded by the consciousness of duty, to pain us wherever it has been violated, and to console us so far as God may have given us grace to perform it.
Halaman 28 - A sense of duty pursues us ever. It is omnipresent, like the Deity. If we take to ourselves the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, duty performed, or duty violated, is still with us, for our happiness or our misery.
Halaman 151 - I should take the wings of the morning and flee to the uttermost parts of the earth, lo!
