Seite 106 - Oh ! none ; — another busy brood of beings Will shoot up in the interim, and none Will hold him in remembrance. I shall sink, As sinks a stranger in the crowded streets Of busy London : — Some short bustle's caused, A few inquiries, and the crowds close in, And all's forgotten.
Seite 363 - That we deeply lament the nature of that agitation now so prevalent in this kingdom, and which avowedly has for its object the severing of the National Church from the State, and other changes in ecclesiastical affairs. We, therefore, are of opinion that it pertains not unto us to interfere in such matters ; and we strenuously enjoin upon every member of our connexion to meddle not with them that are given to change, but on the contrary to pray for the King and for all that are in authority, that...
