Seite 61 - Where there is much desire to learn, there of necessity will be much arguing, much writing, many opinions ; for opinion in good men is but knowledge in the making. Under these fantastic terrors of sect and schism we wrong the earnest and zealous thirst after knowledge and understanding which God hath stirred up in this city.
Seite 58 - Osiris, took the virgin truth, hewed her lovely form into a thousand pieces, and scattered them to the four winds.
