Página 117 - She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar. She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens. She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
Página 137 - By angel trumps in heaven their praise is blown, Divine their lot. " What shall I do to gain eternal life ? Discharge aright The simple dues with which each day is rife ?" Yea, with thy might. Ere perfect scheme of action thou devise, Will life be fled, While he who ever acts as conscience cries Shall live, though dead.
Página 4 - Yet, ere we part, one lesson I can leave you For every day. Be good, sweet maid, and let who will be clever ; Do noble things, not dream them, all day long : And so make life, death, and that vast for-ever One grand, sweet song.
Página 93 - To eyes and ears of parents who themselves Did, in the time of their necessity, Urge it in vain; and, therefore, like a prayer That from the humblest floor ascends to heaven, It mounts to reach the State's parental ear; Who, if indeed she own a mother's heart.
