Stran 260 - For we must needs die, and are as water spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again; neither doth God respect any person: yet doth he devise means, that his banished be not expelled from him.
Stran 469 - The dishes were placed all around, and there was an elegant variety of roast beef, veal, turkeys, ducks, fowls, hams, &c. ; puddings, jellies, oranges, apples, nuts, almonds, figs, raisins, and a variety of wines and punch.
