Pagina 196 - Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison. Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

I was that day going to London, fully determined to bespeak them, as I rode through the town.

And I believe the same God ordered mine, as I trust it will appear in the following history. The scripture tells us to call no man master,...
Pagina 214 - And they shall be upon Aaron, and upon his sons, when they come in unto the tabernacle of the congregation, or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the holy place; that they bear not iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute for ever unto him and his seed after him.

I believe this horse was the gift of God, because he tells me in his word that all the beasts of the forest are his, and so are the cattle on a thousand hills. I have often thought that, if my horse could have spoken, he would have had more to say than Balaam's ass; as he might have said, ' I am an answer to my master's prayers, I live by my master's faith, travel with mysteries, and suffer persecution, but I...
