Page 15 - For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me: and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
Page 101 - For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,) But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him ; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Page 132 - Tis prudence to enjoy it all, Nor lose the present hour. To be resigned, when ills betide, Patient, when favours are denied, And pleased with favours given ; Dear Chloe, this is wisdom's part, This is that incense of the heart, Whose fragrance smells to heaven.
Page 189 - By thine Agony and bloody Sweat ; by thy Cross and Passion; by thy precious Death and Burial; by thy glorious Resurrection and Ascension ; and by the coming of the Holy Ghost, Good Lord, deliver us.
