Σελίδα 97 - Suffer hardship with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No soldier on service entangleth himself in the affairs of this life ; that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
Σελίδα 270 - It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth, To touch their harps of gold : "Peace on the earth, goodwill to men, From heaven's all-gracious King!
Σελίδα 413 - There came to port last Sunday night The queerest little craft, Without an inch of rigging on; I looked and looked — and laughed! It seemed so curious that she Should cross the Unknown water, And moor herself within my room My daughter! O, my daughter! Yet by these presents witness all She's welcome fifty times, And comes consigned in hope and love And common-metre rhymes.
