Sida 264 - God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened, Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools. And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.

Sida 394 - To what do Caesar and Alexander owe the infinite grandeur of their renown, but to fortune?
