Seite 208 - In a drear-nighted December, Too happy, happy tree Thy branches ne'er remember Their green felicity. The north cannot undo them, With a sleety whistle through them, Nor frozen thawings glue them From budding at the prime.
Seite 175 - Let thy work appear unto thy servants, And thy glory unto their children. And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us: And establish thou the work of our hands upon us...
Seite 130 - Whether ye eat or drink, or whatever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
