When forty winters shall besiege thy brow And dig deep trenches in thy beauty's field,... Thy youth's proud livery, so gaz'd on now, Will be a tatter'd weed of small worth held. Then being ask'd where all thy beauty lies, Where all the treasure of thy lusty days, To say, within thine own deep-sunken eyes Were an all-eating shame and thriftless praise. How much more praise deserv'd thy beauty's use If thou couldst answer, \'This fair child of mine Shall sum my count and make my old excuse,' Proving his beauty by succession thine! This were to be new made when thou art old And see thy blood warm when thou feel'st it cold.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Beat! beat! drums!--blow! bugles! blow! Through the windows--through doors--burst like a ruthless force,... Into the solemn church, and scatter the congregation; Into the school where the scholar is studying; Leave not the bridegroom quiet--no happiness must he have now with his bride; Nor the peaceful farmer any peace, plough his field or gathering his grain; So fierce you whirr and pound, you drums--so shrill you bugles blow.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Do not look at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup and goes down smoothly. At the last it bites like a serpent, and s...tings like an adder. Your eyes will see strange things, and your mind utter perverse things. You will be like one who lies down in the midst of the sea, like one who lies on the top of a mast. "They struck me," you will say, "but I was not hurt; they beat me, but I did not feel it. When shall I awake? I will seek another drink."LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die. Thou shalt beat him with the rod, ...and shalt deliver his soul from hell.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him, beat him, and went away, lea...ving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. ... But a Samaritan while traveling came near him; and when he saw him, he was moved with pity. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, having poured oil and wine on them. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. The next day he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said, 'Take care of him; and when I come back, I will repay you whatever more you spend.'LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The ra...in fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell-and great was its fall!LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
