Strana 36 - St. Anthony the abbot secures his votaries from fire, and St. Anthony of Padua delivers them from water ; St. Barbara is the refuge of the timid in times of thunder and of war : St.
Strana 14 - Wardens of the lodge repair to the places which have been previously prepared for their reception : the three lights, and the gold and silver pitchers, with the corn, wine, and oil, are placed on the lodge, at the head of which stands the pedestal...
Strana 88 - ... that he had no idea of proposing the payment of his Royal Highness's debts in any other manner than by appropriating a part of his income, and the revenues of the Duchy of Cornwall, to that purpose.
