Seite 100 - ... to us foreigners, we found a comparatively quiet nook at a table. The scene was peculiar ; rows of gaily attired peasants seated at long tables, laughing and drinking beer out of quaintly-shaped glasses with little pewter lids ; trees waving above their heads, roses and lilies blooming around them ; a background of Tyrolean roofs, covered with their large round stones and sharp jagged Alpine peaks rising closely behind the cottages into the sunny sky.
Seite 124 - ... perfect lines; it is enough for us to record generally that every detail of Gospel history is brought painfully before us; we see the suffering figure, the torn and bleeding hands, and the bruised head with the crown of thorns.
