Side xviii - The trivial round, the common task, Would furnish all we ought to ask; Room to deny ourselves ; a road To lead us, daily, nearer God.
Side vii - The Sundays of man's life, Threaded together on time's string, Make bracelets to adorn the wife Of the eternal glorious King. On Sunday heaven's gate stands ope ; Blessings are plentiful and rife — More plentiful than hope.
Side xviii - ... father came to breakfast or dinner, as soon as the repast was finished, (and a working man in health does not usually loiter over his meals,) our mother used to read aloud till the hour was finished, either with the youngest child upon her knee, or, if it was in the cradle, knitting while she read. She used to say, that it was disagreeable and improper to be bustling about while father was within ; and when he was gone out, the work must be done up.
Side 15 - AMONG the deepest shades of night, Can there be one who sees my way ? Yes ; God is like a shining light, That turns the darkness into day. When every eye around me sleeps, May I not sin without control ? No ; for a constant watch he keeps On every thought of every soul.
Side 14 - ... and so far did she carry this, that she used to say that " it was disagreeable and improper to be bustling about while father was within, and when he was gone out the work must be done up.

No; holy its hours indeed are, sanctified, set apart ; not however to solemn, gloomy, lifeless inactivity ; but hallowed to rest and refreshment, sacred to joy, set apart...
Side 19 - It was upon one of these occasions, when some remarks made by one of my parents in endeavouring to call our attention to the truth that we must be changed, renewed in the image of God ; or, to take up the simple figurative expression then made use of, that we must have new hearts, else we never could be happy with our Father in heaven, that an impression was made upon my mind, never to be effaced : from that hour, through all my follies and all my waywardness, the thought of that new heart still...
Side 26 - ... open to us, even the well of living waters which never can be dried up, and though those loved ones are departed, and we cannot but feel the loss of their society, we are happy in the hope of soon meeting them where there are pleasures for evermore.
