But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses, every word may be established.

Pagina 40 - I must confess I think it is below reasonable creatures to be altogether conversant in such diversions as are merely innocent, and have nothing else to recommend them but that there is no hurt in them.

Would not a man laugh to hear any one of this species complaining that life is short?
Pagina 90 - How odious ought writers to be who thus employ the talents they have from their Maker most traitorously against himself, by endeavouring to corrupt and disfigure his creatures ! If the comedies of Congreve did not rack him with remorse in his last moments, he must have been lost to all sense of virtue.
Pagina 238 - Clare-hall, and chaplain in ordinary to his majesty, preached before him. But the king was so displeased with the foppery of this preacher's, dress, that he commanded the duke of Monmouth, then chancellor of the university, to cause the statutes concerning decency of apparel among the clergy to be put into execution, which was accordingly done.
Pagina 296 - Festus, whom he would not have called such if he had not been truly Noble; as indeed he was, in that he suffered him to be heard in his own cause, and would not give way to the fury of the Jews against him.
Pagina 211 - X. Are the necessities of the poor among you properly inspected and relieved ; and is good care taken of the education of their offspring ? XI.
Pagina 96 - Unmixed with drops of bitter, which neglect Or temper sheds into thy crystal cup ; Thou art the nurse of virtue. In thine arms She smiles, appearing, as in truth she is, Heaven-born and destined to the skies again.
