Sida 323 - For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. "For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. 'Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
Sida 544 - See the chariot at hand here of Love, Wherein my Lady rideth ! Each that draws is a swan or a dove, And well the car Love guideth. As she goes, all hearts do duty Unto her beauty ; And...
