Strana 145 - IF you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too...
Strana 184 - I keep six honest serving-men (They taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Why and When, and How and Where and Who.
Strana 96 - T"*HE Stranger within my gate, He may be true or kind, But he does not talk my talk — I cannot feel his mind. I see the face and the eyes and the mouth, But not the soul behind. The men of my own stock They may do ill or well, But they tell the lies I am wonted to, They are used to the lies I tell. And we do not need interpreters When we go to buy and sell.
Strana 40 - Gold is for the mistress — silver for the maid! Copper for the craftsman cunning at his trade.'

Strana 60 - Down to Gehenna or up to the Throne, He travels the fastest who travels alone.
Strana 3 - CITIES AND THRONES AND POWERS" "A CENTURION OF THE THIRTIETH"— PUCK OF POOR'S HILL LJITIES and Thrones and Powers Stand in Time's eye, Almost as long as flowers, Which daily die...
Strana 251 - But remember, please, the Law by which we live, We are not built to comprehend a lie, We can neither love nor pity nor forgive, If you make a slip in handling us you die!
Strana 123 - OUR FATHERS OF OLD" Excellent herbs had our fathers of old — Excellent herbs to ease their pain — Alexanders and Marigold, Eyebright, Orris, and Elecampane — Basil, Rocket, Valerian, Rue, (Almost singing themselves they run) Vervain, Dittany, Call-me-to-you — Cowslip, Melilot, Rose of the Sun. Anything green that grew out of the mould Was an excellent herb to our fathers of old.
Strana 9 - See you our little mill that clacks, So busy by the brook? She has ground her corn and paid her tax Ever since Domesday Book. See you our stilly woods of oak, And the dread ditch beside? O that was where the Saxons broke, On the day that Harold died.
