Страница 350 - Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord JESUS CHRIST, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

Страница 27 - How use doth breed a habit in a man ! This shadowy desert, unfrequented woods, I better brook than flourishing peopled towns : Here can I sit alone, unseen of any, And to the nightingale's complaining notes Tune my distresses, and record my woes.
Страница 52 - No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. 19 There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings. 20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?

Страница 187 - From all Society, from Love and Hate, Of worldly Folk ; then should he sleep secure. Then wake again, and yield God ever praise, Content with hips and haws and bramble-berry, In Contemplation passing out his days, And change of Holy Thoughts to make him merry; And when he dies his tomb may be a bush, Where harmless Robin dwells with gentle Thrush. Your Majesty's Exiled Servant, ROBERT ESSEX.
