But since this god produced a destiny, And that vice-nature, custom, lets it be, I must love her that loves not me.
Seite 382 - ... hath made of one blood all nations of men to dwell on all the face of the earth...
Seite 552 - Truth, for its own sake, had never been a virtue with the Roman clergy. Father Newman informs us that it need not, and on the whole ought not to be; that cunning is the weapon which heaven has given to the Saints wherewith to withstand the brute male force of the wicked world which marries and is given in marriage.
