Стр. 175 - Look not mournfully into the Past. It comes not back again. Wisely improve the Present. It is thine. Go forth to meet the shadowy Future, without fear, and with a manly heart.
Стр. 262 - Verschmerzen werd ich diesen Schlag, das weiß ich, Denn was verschmerzte nicht der Mensch ! Vom Höchsten Wie vom Gemeinsten lernt er sich entwöhnen, Denn ihn besiegen die gewalt'gen Stunden. Doch fühl ich's wohl, was ich in ihm verlor.

Стр. 288 - The gentles ye wad ne'er envy 'em. It's true, they need na starve or sweat, Thro' winter's cauld, or simmer's heat ; They've nae sair wark to craze their banes, An' fill auld age wi' grips an' granes : But human bodies are sic fools, For a...
Стр. 8 - Therefore should every man wait, — should bide his time ; not in listless idleness, not in useless pastime, not in querulous dejection ; but in constant, steady, cheerful endeavours, always willing, and fulfilling, and accomplishing his task, that, when the occasion comes, he may be equal to the occasion.
Стр. 172 - The waves of the sea are mighty, and rage horribly : but yet the Lord, who dwelleth on high, is mightier.
