Σελίδα 5 - And God heard the voice of the lad ; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar ? fear not ; for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is. Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand ; for I will make him a great nation.
Σελίδα 7 - And further, by these, my son, be admonished : of making many books there is no end ; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.

An ordinary painter will delineate with rigid fidelity, and will make a caricature. But the learned artist contrives so to temper...
Σελίδα 706 - Upon Thursdays repair To my palace, and there Hobble up stair by stair ; But I pray ye take care, That you break not your shins by a stumble ; " And without e'er a souse Paid to me or my spouse ; Sit as still as a mouse At the top of the house, And there you shall hear how we fumble.
Σελίδα 251 - From scenes like these old Scotia's grandeur springs, That makes her loved at home, revered abroad : Princes and lords are but the breath of kings; " An honest man's the noblest work of God ;" And, certes,* in fair virtue's heavenly road, The cottage leaves the palace far behind.
Σελίδα 122 - On one occasion the minister delivered a sermon of but ten minutes' duration — a most unusual thing for him. Upon the conclusion of his remarks he added: "I regret to inform you, brethren, that my dog, who appears to be peculiarly fond of paper, this morning ate that portion of my sermon that I have not delivered. Let us pray.
Σελίδα 130 - ... said, the fidelity of the imitation is often its greatest merit, we have only to reply, that in such cases the pleasure is not poetical, but consists in the mere recognition. All novels and tales which introduce real characters, are in the same degree unpoetical. Portraitpainting, to be poetical, should furnish an abstract representation of an individual ; the abstraction being more rigid, inasmuch as the painting is confined to one point of time.
