Стр. 36 - Statesman, yet friend to truth ! of soul sincere, In action faithful, and in honour clear ; Who broke no promise, served no private end, Who gain'd no title, and who lost no friend ; Ennobled by himself, by all approved, And praised, unenvied, by the muse he loved,
Стр. 10 - Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way...
