Strana 227 - This story shall the good man teach his son ; And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by, From this day to the ending of the world, But we in it shall be remembered ; We few, we happy few, we band of brothers...

Strana 63 - Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
