Strana 67 - Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.
Strana 130 - Content I live, this is my stay; I seek no more than may suffice ; I press to bear no haughty sway; Look, what I lack my mind supplies. Lo, thus I triumph like a king, Content with that my mind doth bring.
