Side 299 - In my time my poor father was as diligent to teach me to shoot as to learn (me) any other thing ; and so, I think, other men did their children.

In times past men were full of pity and compassion, but now there is no pity; for in London their brother shall die in the streets for cold, he shall lie sick at the door between stock and stock, I cannot tell what to call it, and perish there for hunger: was there ever more unmercifulness in Nebo?
Side 296 - My father was a yeoman, and had no lands of his own, only he had a farm of three or four pound by year at the uttermost, and hereupon he tilled so much as kept half a dozen men. He had walk for a hundred sheep; and my mother milked thirty kine.

Side 91 - Now unthrifts riot and run in debt, upon the boldness of these places ; yea, and rich men run thither with poor men's goods; there they build, there they spend, and bid their creditors go whistle them.
Side 70 - The shepherd told me, that many of his sheep are still WILD ; that they had not yet learned their names ; but that, by teaching, they would all learn them. The others, which knew their names, he called TAME.
