Lastly, whereas this book, by the title it hath, calls itself The First Part of tlie General History of the World...
Сторінка 141 - My soul prays to God for thee, that thou mayest stand in the day of trial, that thy children may be blessed of the Lord, and thy people saved by his power.
Сторінка 121 - First. Let nothing in this world tempt you to wrong your conscience ; so you will keep peace at home, which will be a feast to you in the day of trouble.
