Стр. 57 - For woman is not undevelopt man, But diverse : could we make her as the man, Sweet Love were slain : his dearest bond is this. Not like to like, but like in difference. Yet in the long years liker must they grow ; The man be more of woman, she of man; He gain in sweetness and in moral height, Nor lose the wrestling thews that throw the world ; She mental breadth, nor fail in childward care, Nor lose the childlike in the larger mind; Till at the last she set herself to man, Like perfect music unto...
Стр. 21 - Augustine saith, the Sacrament of the Body and Blood of Christ ; yet in no wise are they partakers of Christ, but rather, to their condemnation, do eat and drink the sign or sacrament of so great a thing.
Стр. 98 - It is the little rift within the lute, That by and by will make the music mute, And ever widening slowly silence all.
Стр. 33 - The strengthening and refreshing of our souls by the Body and Blood of Christ, as our bodies are by the bread and wine.
Стр. 79 - But during the last three centuries, to stunt the growth of the human mind has been her chief object.

Стр. 52 - Of Purgatory. THE Romish doctrine concerning purgatory, pardons, worshipping, and adoration, as well of images, as of reliques, and also invocation of saints, is a fond thing vainly invented, and grounded upon no warranty of Scripture, but rather repugnant to the word of God.
Стр. 79 - The loveliest and most fertile provinces of Europe have, under her rule, been sunk in poverty, in political servitude, and in intellectual torpor ; while Protestant countries, once proverbial for sterility and barbarism, have been turned by skill and industry into gardens, and can boast of a long list of heroes and statesmen, philosophers and poets.
Стр. 70 - In England the work of conversion has continued during the past year with steady and not very slow steps. To name, or even indicate individuals who have been received during the past twelve months, would be foreign to our purpose. This much we may say (and say with truth, the facts being known to many Catholics in London) that the number of converts...
