الصفحة 47 - Therefore rejoice ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the Inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
الصفحة 364 - Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale, Yet will I fear none ill ; For thou art with me ; and thy rod And staff me comfort still.

'Weary Knife-grinder! little think the proud ones, Who in their coaches roll along the turnpikeroad, what hard work 'tis crying all day "Knives and "Scissors to grind O!
الصفحة 335 - Bill is good for this purpose, as far as it goes; but it goes a very little way; and we much doubt if it will operate as any sort of abridgment to the power of Magistrates in granting relief.
الصفحة 279 - THE spring when the green gits back in the trees, And the sun comes out and stays, And your boots pull on with a good tight squeeze, And you think of your barefoot days; When you ort to work and you want to not, And you and yer wife agrees It's time to spade up the garden lot — When the green gits back...
