As the nations which the Lord destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish ; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the Lord your God.
Side 89 - I am or of what I ought to do, I know neither my condition nor my duty.
Side 252 - I set it down as a fact that if all men knew what each said of the other, there would not be four friends in the world.
