Strana 33 - WHO can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
Strana 81 - HEAVEN is not reached at a single bound ; But we build the ladder by which we rise From the lowly earth to the vaulted skies, And we mount to the summit round by round.
Strana 33 - She considereth a field, and buyeth it : with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
Strana 33 - She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up and call her blessed, her husband also, and he praiseth her.
Strana 33 - ... she layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff : she stretcheth out her hand to the poor, yea she reacheth forth her hands to the needy : she is not afraid of the snow for her household, for all her household are clothed with scarlet : she maketh herself covering of tapestry, her clothing is silk and purple.

Strana 34 - mid the falling leaves, As you did 'mid the bloom of May? Is your heart an ocean so strong and deep I may launch my all on its tide? A loving woman finds heaven or hell On the day she is made a bride. I require all things that are grand and true, All things that a man should be; If you give this all I would stake my life To be all you demand of me. If you cannot do this — a laundress and cook You can hire with little to pay; But a woman's heart and a woman's life Are not to be won that way.
Strana 86 - I would not enter on my list of friends (Though graced with polish'd manners and fine sense. Yet wanting sensibility) the man Who needlessly sets foot upon a worm.
Strana 120 - Protection of work. — The pavement is to be kept moist, protected against the weather and guarded against foot travel until it has set. Care shall be taken at all times not to interfere with business or travel more than is absolutely necessary for faithful execution of the work. Free ingress and egress from the street to entrance...
Strana 83 - The depth of covering necessary increases with. the size of the pipe. At least a foot of earth over the top is advisable in every case, but for culverts of two feet in diameter or over this should be increased to at least eighteen inches. The earth should be well packed and rammed around the tile to secure a firm bearing, and light soils should not be used immediately over or around the culvert. A heavy clay, a firm gravel, or a compact sand will answer, but vegetable mold, water sand, and light...
