Σελίδα 82 - Holy Scripture and ancient authors, that from the Apostles' time there have been these Orders of Ministers in Christ's Church ; Bishops, Priests, and Deacons.
Σελίδα 14 - twere anew, the gaps of centuries ; Leaving that beautiful which still was so, And making that which was not, till the place Became religion, and the heart ran o'er With silent worship of the great of old ! — The dead, but sceptred sovereigns, who still rule Our spirits from their urns.
Σελίδα 430 - A man who is born into a world already possessed, if he cannot get subsistence from his parents on whom he has a just demand, and if the society do not want his labour, has no claim of right to the smallest portion of food, and, in fact, has no business to be where he is.

Σελίδα 524 - Report of the Commissioners of Her Majesty's Inland Revenue for the year ended 31st March, 1892, also shows that the rents of the landowners have been seriously diminished.
Σελίδα 109 - Israelites, that their hand was against every man, and every man's hand against them.
Σελίδα 333 - John's temper depended very much upon the air; his spirits rose and fell with the weather-glass. John was quick, and understood his business very well ; but no man alive was more careless in looking into his accounts, or more cheated by partners, apprentices, and servants.
Σελίδα 148 - Their sound is gone out into all lands : and their words into the ends of the world. 5 In them hath he set a tabernacle for...
Σελίδα 277 - ... we are losing the war. This is not a matter of opinion ; it is a matter of record, and it is a record which this committee has already published in countless volumes and transcripts and reports.
