Pagina 155 - For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ : whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.
Pagina 55 - They were all rigg'd with wolves, calves, and rams' skins, lac'd and trim'd with sheeps' heads, bulls' feathers and large kitchen tenter-hooks, girt with broad leathern girdles, whereat hang'd dangling huge cow-bells and horse-bells, which made a horrid din. Some held in their claws black sticks full of squibs and crackers; others had long lighted pieces of wood, upon which at the corner of every street they flung whole handfuls of rosin-dust, that made a terrible fire and smoak. "Having thus led...
Pagina 21 - Honest fellow, said Mercury, I leave it thee ; take it ; and because thou hast wished and chosen moderately in point of hatchet, by Jupiter's command I give thee these two others ; thou hast now wherewith to make thyself rich : be honest.
Pagina 12 - ... his light: he sanctified him in his faithfulness, and meekness, and chose him out of all men. By him he made us to hear his voice, and caused by him the law of life and knowledge to be given.
Pagina 89 - Then the voice, louder than before, bid him publish, when he should come to Palodes, that the great god Pan was dead. Epitherses related that all the mariners and passengers, having heard this, were extremely amazed and frighted ; and that consulting among themselves, whether they had best conceal or divulge what the voice had enjoined ; Thamous said, his advice was, that if they happened to have a fair wind, they should proceed without mentioning a word of it, but if they chanced to be becalmed,...
Pagina 15 - ... helve, as some spirits of contradiction say by way of scandalous blunder, but the helve after the hatchet, as you all properly have it. Presently two great miracles were seen: up springs the hatchet from the bottom of the water, and fixes itself to its old acquaintance the helve. Now had he wished to coach it to heaven in a fiery chariot like EHas, to multiply in seed like Abraham, be as rich as Job, strong as Samson, and beautiful as Absalom, would he have obtained it, d'ye think? I' troth,...
Pagina 55 - They were all rigged with wolves', calves', and rams' skins, laced and trimmed with sheep's heads, bull's feathers, and large kitchen tenterhooks, girt with broad leathern girdles, whereat hanged dangling huge cow-bells and horse-bells, which made a horrid din. Some held in their claws black sticks full of squibs and crackers; others had long lighted pieces of wood, upon which, at the corner of every street, they flung whole handfuls of rosin-dust, that made a terrible fire and smoke.
Pagina 22 - ... stables, meadows, orchards, fields, vineyards, woods, arable lands, pastures, ponds, mills, gardens, nurseries, oxen, cows, sheep, goats, swine, hogs, asses, horses, hens, cocks, capons, chickens, geese, ganders, ducks, drakes, and a world of all other necessaries, and in a short time became the richest man in the country, nay, even richer than that limping scrape-good Maulevrier.
Pagina 23 - Every he still was for that of gold, giving thanks in abundance to the great giver, Jupiter ; but in the very nick of time that they bowed and stooped to take it from the ground, whip, in a trice, Mercury lopped off their heads, as Jupiter had commanded ; and of heads thus cut off the number was just equal to that of the lost hatchets.
