Sida 260 - Whose adorning, let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible ; even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
Sida iv - But these are deeds which should not pass away, And names that must not wither, though the earth . Forgets her empires with a just decay, The enslavers and the enslaved, their death and birth...
