الصفحة 23 - Ingemisco tanquam reus, culpa rubet vultus meus ; supplicanti parce, Deus. Qui Mariam absolvisti et latronem exaudisti, mihi quoque spem dedisti ; Preces meae non sunt dignae, sed tu, bonus, fac benigne, ne perenni cremer igne.
الصفحة 22 - Quaerens me, sedisti lassus ; Redemisti, crucem passus : Tantus labor non sit cassus. Juste Judex ultionis, Donum fac remissionis, Ante diem rationis. Ingemisco, tanquam reus, Culpa rubet vultus meus, Supplicanti parce Deus.

الصفحة 30 - Day of vengeance, without morrow! Earth shall end in flame and sorrow, As from Saint and Seer we borrow. Ah! what terror is impending, When the Judge is seen descending, And each secret veil is rending! To the throne, the trumpet sounding, Through the sepulchres resounding, Summons all, with voice astounding.

الصفحة 23 - Supplicanti parce Deus. Qui Mariam absolvisti, Et latronem exaudisti, Mihi quoque spem dedisti. Preces meae non sunt dignae. Sed tu bonus fac benigne, Ne perenni cremer igne. Inter oves locum praesta, Et ab hoedis me sequestra.
الصفحة 8 - ... clearly laid down by Dr Jowett in his preface to the second and third editions of the Dialogues of Plato. He says :—" An English translation ought to be idiomatic and interesting, not only to the scholar but to the unlearned reader. Its object should not simply be to render the words of one language into the words of another, or to preserve the construction and order of the original; this is the ambition of a schoolboy, who wishes to show that he has made a good use of his dictionary and grammar;...
الصفحة 19 - Day of tears and late repentance, Man shall rise to hear his sentence: Him, the child of guilt and error, Spare, Lord, in that hour of terror!
الصفحة 32 - Faint and weary Thou hast sought me, On the Cross of suffering bought me ; Shall such grace be vainly brought me ? Righteous Judge ! for sin's pollution Grant Thy gift of absolution, Ere that day of retribution.
