Seite 272 - The myrrh sweet-bleeding in the bitter wound ; The warlike beech ; the ash for nothing ill; The fruitful olive • and the platane round ; The carver holme; the maple seldom inward sound.
Seite 458 - There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor. The rich man had exceeding many flocks and herds : but the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children ; it did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom and was unto him as a daughter.
