Seite 338 - Call upon me in the day of trouble, and I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
Seite 7 - The ingenious Comte de la Motte Fouque composed in German, one of the most successful productions of his fertile brain, where a beautiful and even afflicting effect is produced by the introduction of a waternymph, who loses the privilege of immortality by consenting to become accessible to human feelings, and uniting her lot with that of a mortal, who treats her with ingratitude. In imitation of an example so successful, the White Lady of Avenel was introduced into the story.
Seite 434 - We do not know them in the fountain, but in the stream; not in. the root, but in the stem; for we know not who was the first mean man that did by his virtue raise himself above the vulgar.
