Strana 344 - It's wiser being good than bad; It's safer being meek than fierce : It's fitter being sane than mad. My own hope is, a sun will pierce The thickest cloud earth ever stretched ; That, after Last, returns the First, Though a wide compass round be fetched ; That what began best, can't end worst, Nor what God blessed once, prove accurst.
Strana 340 - In spite of your intelligence and sympathy, I can have but little doubt but that my writing has been, in the main, too hard for many I should have been pleased to communicate with; but I never designedly tried to puzzle people, as some of my critics have supposed. On the other hand, I never pretended to offer such literature as should be a substitute for a cigar, or a game of dominoes, to an idle man. So perhaps, on the whole, I get my deserts and something over, — not a crowd, but a few I value...
Strana 178 - The steep which we had descended was formed of volcanic matter, apparently a light red and gray kind of lava, vesicular, and lying in horizontal strata, varying in thickness from one to forty feet. In a small number of places the different strata of lava were also rent in perpendicular or oblique directions, from the top to the bottom, either by earthquakes, or other violent convulsions of the ground connected with the action of the adjacent volcano.
Strana 343 - Yes ; I see now — God is the PERFECT POET, Who in creation acts his own conceptions. Shall man refuse to be aught less than God ? Man's weakness is his glory — for the strength Which raises him to heaven and near God's self, Came spite of it : God's strength his glory is, For thence came with our weakness sympathy Which brought God down to earth, a man like us.
Strana 193 - Rosskeen, in which some friends in the Parish of Alness were so much interested that they wished me to prepare a similar paper on their Parish, which I have done, and now take the liberty of reading. I hope those friends and others will find a few things in it which will...
Strana 345 - Heaven opened to a soul while yet on earth, Earth forced on a soul's use while seeing heaven: The man is witless of the size, the sum, The value in proportion of all things, Or whether it be little or be much.
Strana 178 - The surface of this plain was uneven, and strewed over with large stones and volcanic rocks, and in the centre of it was the great crater, at the distance of a mile and a half from the precipice on which we were standing.
Strana 183 - W., where he sighted the great ice barrier which forms the seaward boundary of Antarctica. Speaking of this discovery, Sir James Clark Ross says : " I confidently believe that the enormous mass of ice which bounded his view when at his extreme south latitude was a range of mountainous land covered with snow.
Strana 358 - Andr6e is in the means employed1 to reach the desired goal. As far as is known, the Arctic Ocean for the greater portion of the year is a mass of ice, and certainly there are large areas of it which are constantly frozen. Nordenskjold, in his " Voyage of the ' Vega,' " speaks of five varieties of polar ice as occurring in the Arctic Ocean, and it may be taken for granted that the area within a few degrees of the pole is ice-bound the whole year round. The limited communication between the Arctic...
Strana 178 - The bottom was covered with lava, and the south-west and northern parts of it were one vast flood of burning matter, in a state of terrific ebullition, rolling to and fro its " fiery surge
