Pàgina 31 - I desired all to withdraw, then told her that we were to part for ever ; that as Christians, we should part with prayer; and that I would, if she was willing, say a short prayer beside her.
Pàgina 52 - Their doctrines are most repulsive and strongly tinctured with impertinence and disrespect towards their superiors, in perpetually endeavouring to level all ranks and do away with all distinctions.
