Penn came without arms; he declared his purpose to abstain from violence ; he had no message but peace ; and not a drop of Quaker blood was ever shed by an Indian.
Seite 654 - Jersey in such numbers as to give to the rising commonwealth a character which a century and a half has not effaced...
Seite 1002 - ' with a cap of liberty on her head, a spear in one hand, the horn of plenty in the other.
