As if he wished the firmament of heaven Should listen, and give back...
Page 243 - This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other ; for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Page 87 - And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Page 19 - Itself from all malevolent effect Of those mutations that extend their sway Throughout the nether sphere ! And if with this I mix more lowly matter; with the thing Contemplated, describe the Mind and Man Contemplating ; and who, and what he was, The transitory being that beheld This vision ; when and where, and how he lived ; Be not this labour useless.
