Direct us in the right way, in the way of those to whom thou hast been gracious ; not of those against whom thou art incensed, not of those who go astray.
Σελίδα 392 - Some kinder casuists are pleased to say, In nameless print — that I have no devotion ; But set those persons down with me to pray, And you shall see who has the properest notion Of getting into heaven the shortest way : My altars are the mountains and the ocean, Earth, air, stars all that springs from the great Whole, Who hath produced, and will receive the soul.
Σελίδα 201 - No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there: And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

Σελίδα 247 - ... Egypt, father of fathers, shepherd of shepherds, high priest of high priests, thirteenth of the apostles and judge of the earth, God have mercy and grant long life." How ceremonious are these grand officials of the Eastern Church, and how tenacious of their titles, and especially that of (Ecumenical, may be seen by their signatures. The signatures of two of these Patriarchs I present in fac-simile. One is that of "Simeon, by the mercy of God Archbishop of Constantinople, New Rome, and (Ecumenical...
Σελίδα 213 - For the first entertainment of the blessed on their admission, they fable that the whole earth will then be as one loaf of bread, which God will reach to them with his hand, holding it like a cake...
Σελίδα 568 - Upon the forenoon of this eventful day, a long procession of carriages, loaded with elegant toilets, moves toward the house of the bridegroom. In its midst there is one carriage specially honored. It may not compare with the bridal chariot described in the Bible, whose wood was of cedar, its pillars of silver, its bottom of gold, its covering of purple, and the midst thereof paved with love for the daughters of Jerusalem.
Σελίδα 201 - ... be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon ; it shall not be found there. But the redeemed shall walk there ; and the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with songs, and everlasting joy upon their heads. They obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. And I will plant them upon their land which I have given them, saith the Lord my God.
