My love I send you, that you may keep it when I am dead ; and my counsel that you may remember it when I am no more. I would not, 'by my will, present you with sorrows, dear .Bess — let them go into the grave with me, and be buried in the dust.
Side 165 - First I send you all the thanks which my heart can Conceive or my words can express for your many travails and care taken for me, which, though they have not taken effect, as you wished, yet my debt to you is not the less; but pay it I never shall in this world.
Side 123 - My lord, out of the love I bear to some of your friends, I have a care of your preservation ; therefore I would advise you, as you tender your life, to devise some excuse to shift oft' your attendance at this Parliament; for God and man have concurred to punish the wickedness of this time.

Side 169 - ... Wales, — a subject to my knowledge never handled by any man, ancient or modern. But God hath spared me the labour of finishing it by his loss, — by the loss of that brave prince, of which, like an eclipse of the sun, we shall find the effects hereafter. Impossible it is to equal words and sorrows ; I will therefore leave him in the hands of God that hath him : Cures leves loquuntur, ingentes stupent...
Side 165 - God hath prevented all my resolutions, even that Great God that ruleth all in all. But if you can live free from want, care for no more ; the rest is but vanity. Love God, and begin betimes to repose yourself on him ; and therein shall you find true and lasting riches, and endless comfort.
Side 215 - I despatched her safe, and went partly down stairs to meet Mrs Mills, who had the precaution to hold her handkerchief to her face, as was very natural for a woman to do when she was going to bid her last farewell to a friend on the eve of his execution. I had indeed desired her to do it, that my lord might go out in the same manner.
Side 221 - ... preservation after one very severe winter, for when I took them up, they were as dry as if they came from the fireside, yet they could not possibly have remained so much longer without prejudice.
