The leaves of wasted autumn woods shall float around thine head: The blooms of dewy spring shall gleam beneath thy feet: But thy soul, or this world, must fade in the frost that binds the dead, Ere midnight's frown and morning's smile, ere thou and peace may meet.
Strana 221 - Justice is a name for certain classes of moral rules, which concern the essentials of human well-being more nearly, and are therefore of more absolute obligation, than any other rules for the guidance of life...
Strana 318 - Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and all thy mind and all thy strength, and thy neighbour as thyself.
Strana 126 - Hence we see not only that the human mind is united to the body, but also what is to be understood by the union of the mind and body.
