Seite 69 - My defperation, though refolute, was not of that violent kind as to urge me to take the fatal plunge. As I fat, I fervently recommended my fpirit to that Being I was going to offend in fo Unwarrantable a manner, by not bearing patiently the affliction he was pleafed I fhould naffer.
Seite 79 - Cerberus, guards each avenue to the heart, so that pleasure does not approach. Happy! thrice happy ! are those who are blessed with an independent competence, and can confine their wants within the bounds of that competence, be it what it may. To such alone the bread of life is palatable and nourishing. Sweet is the morsel that is acquired by an honest industry, the produce of which is permanent, or that flows from a source which will not fail. A subsistence, that is precarious, or procured by an...
