Sayfa 319 - MAN, that is born of a woman, hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut down like a flower ; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and never continueth in one stay.
Sayfa 320 - God of his great mercy to take unto himself the soul of our dear brother here departed, we therefore commit his body to the ground; earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust ; in sure and certain hope of the resurrection to eternal life, through our Lord Jesus Christ ; who shall change our vile body, that it may be like unto his glorious body, according to the mighty working, •whereby he is able to subdue all things to himself.
Sayfa 320 - I HEARD a voice from heaven, saying unto me, Write, From henceforth blessed are the dead which die in the Lord : even so saith the Spirit ; for they rest from their labours.
Sayfa 303 - Are you in a fit state of mind," said Herold, "to understand what has happened? I tried to tell you this morning," — as he had done fitfully, — "but it was no use. You grasped nothing." "Go on now," said John. "I 'm listening." So Herold, amid the fripperies of Miss Lindon's drawing-room, told the story of his summons to the Channel House some time ago — Good God! — He caught himself up sharply — it was only yesterday! and of his talk with Stellamaris in the garden, and of her encounter...
Sayfa 33 - s all nonsense. People don't do such things, do they?" Risca twisted his glum face into a smile, remembering the Unwritten Law. "Of course not, Stellamaris," said he. "Cruel Frederick is just as much of a mythical personage as the Giant Fee-fo-fum, who said : I smell the blood of an Englishman, And be he alive or be he dead, I 'll grind his bones to make my bread." "Why do people frighten children with stories of ogres and wicked fairies and all the rest of it, when the real world they live in is...
Sayfa 334 - She released him, and withdrew a little. "Did you know all that I was thinking?" "Or all that the sea was telling you?" "Did you feel that, too?" she asked breathlessly. "I think so," he replied. "It was strange," she said. "I hardly knew that I was here. I seemed to be away in the midst of it all, but I don't think I lost consciousness. I had adventures — curious adventures." She paused abruptly, then she continued: "They seemed to be definite then, but they are all a blur now. It was a kind of...
Sayfa 324 - s free and he 's down here. What more can she want?" " Poor fellow ! He does n't seem to be much the happier for it." "You don't expect him to go about grinning as if nothing had happened, do you?
Sayfa 306 - ... she must not mix up things irreconcilable. She faced the room again. What did people do when they killed ? What were the common, practical steps that they took to gain their ends ? Her mind suddenly grew vague. Herold had spoken of newspapers. She must see them ; she must know everything. Life was a deadly conflict, and knowledge the only weapon. For a few seconds she stood in the middle of the room, her young bosom heaving, her dark eyes wide with the diamond glints in their depths. Life was...
Sayfa 286 - Those infernal clothes — you must get them off at once," said he. John being physically weak, his natural obstinacy gave way. Unity saw the sense of the suggestion ; but it was giving trouble. "Not a bit,
Sayfa 291 - I said, your brain was playing you tricks," said Herold, outwardly calm; but within himself he shuddered to his soul. The woman was like a foul spirit hovering unseen about those he loved. Presently the doctor, a young man with a cheery face, came in and made his examination. There was no serious damage done. The only thing to fear was the chill. If the patient's temperature went down in the morning, he could quite safely be moved to his own home. For the present rest was imperative, immediate sleep...
