Saul clothed David with his armor; he put a bronze helmet on his head and clothed him with a coat of mail. David strapped Saul's s...word over the armor, and he tried in vain to walk, for he was not used to them.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to withstand on that evil day, and having done everything, to st...and firm. Stand therefore, and fasten the belt of truth around your waist, and put on the breastplate of righteousness.

She left the web, she left the loom, She made three paces through the room,... She saw the water-lily bloom, She saw the helmet and the plume, She looked down to Camelot.

Far up in the country,--for we would be faithful to our experience,--in Thornton, perhaps, we met a soldier lad in the woods, goin...g to muster in full regimentals, and holding the middle of the road; deep in the forest, with shouldered musket and military step, and thoughts of war and glory all to himself. It was a sore trial to the youth, tougher than many a battle, to get by us creditably and with soldier-like bearing. Poor man! He actually shivered like a reed in his thin military pants, and by the time we had got up with him, all the sternness that becomes the soldier had forsaken his face, and he skulked past as if he were driving his father's sheep under a sword-proof helmet. It was too much for him to carry any extra armor then, who could not easily dispose of his natural arms. And for his legs, they were like heavy artillery in boggy places; better to cut the traces and forsake them. His greaves chafed and wrestled one with another for want of other foes. But he did get by and get off with all his munitions, and lived to fight another day; and I do not record this as casting any suspicion on his honor and real bravery in the field.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
