Seite 93 - Because I have called, and ye refused ; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded ; but ye have set at naught all my counsel, and would none of my reproof. I also will laugh at your calamity ; I will mock when your fear cometh.

Seite 45 - I had literally to forsake, (in point of sentiment,) all my earthly friends, all my expectations of honour, and I may also say. of wealth. When I was settled in the ministry, it was without any stipulated salary whatever ; and during the seven years which I spent with the church where I was first settled, the whole of my salary would not average forty dollars a year! Hence I may say with the apostle, ' These hands have min»istered to my necessities and those that were with me.
