Pagina 81 - And as soon as the lad was gone, David arose out of a place toward the South, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times : and they kissed one another, and wept one with another, until David exceeded.
Pagina 52 - Lead, kindly light, amid the encircling gloom, Lead thou me on ! The night is dark and I am far from home; Lead thou me on ! Keep thou my feet; I do not ask to see The distant scene; one step enough for me.
