8208ANSWER TO A CHILD''S QUESTION Do you ask what the birds say?
8208Ah why refuse the blameless bliss?
8208Alone, by night, a little child, In place so silent and so wild- Has he no friend, no loving mother near?
8208And art thou nothing?
8208And how then was the Devil drest?
8208And if her heart was not at ease, This was her constant cry--"It was a wicked woman''s curse-- God''s good, and what care I?"
8208And if sometimes, why not to- day?
8208And is that Woman all her crew?
8208And is this all that you can do For him, who did so much for you?
8208And what can ail the mastiff bitch?
8208And who commanded( and the silence came), Here let the billows stiffen, and have rest?
8208And will your mother pity me, Who am a maiden most forlorn?
8208And wouldst thou wrong thy only child, Her child and thine?
8208Are these thy boasts, Champion of human kind?
8208Are those her ribs through which the Sun Did peer, as through a grate?
8208Are those her sails that glance in the Sun, Like restless gossameres?
8208Ask for her and she''ll be denied:-- What then?
8208Boots it with spear and shield Against such gentle foes to take the field Whose beckoning hands the mild Caduceus wield?
8208But ere she from the church- door stepped She smiled and told us why:"It was a wicked woman''s curse,"Quoth she,"and what care I?"
8208But then one wakes, and where am I?
8208But what is this?
8208But who that beauteous Boy beguil''d, That beauteous Boy to linger here?
8208Can danger lurk within a kiss?
8208Can she the bodiless dead espy?
8208Can this be she, The lady, who knelt at the old oak tree?
8208Did ye not see her gleaming thro''the glade?
8208FIRST VOICE"But why drives on that ship so fast, Without or wave or wind?"
8208FRIEND This riddling tale, to what does it belong?
8208Fadeless and young( and what if the latest birth of creation?)
8208For can it be a ship that comes onward without wind or tide?
8208From the fiends, that plague thee thus!-- Why look''st thou so?"
8208Had Ellen lost her mirth?
8208Hast thou a charm to stay the morning- star In his steep course?

8208How shall we yield him honour due?

8208THE KNIGHT''S TOMB Where is the grave of Sir Arthur O''Kellyn?

8208The lovely lady, Christabel, Whom her father loves so well, What makes her in the wood so late, A furlong from the castle gate?

8208The sun was sloping down the sky, And she had linger''d there all day, Counting moments, dreaming fears-- Oh wherefore can he stay?
8208The twinkling stars?
8208There was a hurry in her looks, Her struggles she redoubled:"It was a wicked woman''s curse, And why should I be troubled?"

8208What think you now?
8208What though dread of threatened death And dungeon torture made thy hand and breath Inconstant to the truth within thy heart?

8208Who fill''d thy countenance with rosy light?
8208Who made thee parent of perpetual streams?
8208Who made you glorious as the Gates of Heaven Beneath the keen full moon?
8208Who sank thy sunless pillars deep in Earth?
8208Why is thy cheek so wan and wild, Sir Leoline?
8208Why rejoices Thy heart with hollow joy for hollow good?
8208Why should I yearn To keep the relique?
8208Why stares she with unsettled eye?
8208With lips unbrightened, wreathless brow, I stroll: And would you learn the spells that drowse my soul?
8208With new surprise,"What ails then my beloved child?"
8208Yet what and whence thy gain, if thou withhold These costless shadows of thy shadowy self?
8208Yet why at others''wanings should''st thou fret?

8489A lady once asked me--"What then could be the intention in creating so many great bodies, so apparently useless to us?"
8489And can such a feeling be without its effect on the estimation of the wedded life in general?

8489Besides, can we altogether disregard the practice of the modern Greeks?
8489Bowyer asked me why I had made myself such a fool?

8488Had Chapman read Proclus and Porphyry?--and did he really believe them,--or even that they believed themselves?
8488He takes care?
8488Hear ye this, Insulted delegates of France?
8488Hear ye this, colleagues?
8488How is this conceivable?
8488How shall he fully enjoy Wordsworth, who has never meditated on the truths which Wordsworth has wedded to immortal verse?

8488Might not Luther and Calvin serve?
8488Music, my love?
8488Must we contaminate this sacred hall With the foul breath of treason?
8488Nay, I could write a book myself, Would fit a parson''s lower shelf, Showing, how very good you are.-- What then?
8488Or did he countenance his over- zealous disciples, when they would have had fire from heaven to destroy those that were not of their mind?
8488Resembles life what once was deem''d of light, Too ample in itself for human sight?
8488Robespierre, what proofs were ask''d when Brissot died?
8488Say, are ye friends to freedom?
8488Say, what shall counteract the selfish plottings Of wretches, cold of heart, nor awed by fears Of him, whose power directs th''eternal justice?
8488Say-- thou man Of mighty eloquence, whose law was that?
8488Speak, ye accomplice band, Of what am I accused?
8488Suppose I had discovered, or been wrecked on an uninhabited island, would it be mine or the king''s?
8488Take a pious Jew, one of the Maccabees, and compare his faith and its grounds with Priestley''s; and then, for what did Christ come?
8488Take him in his whole,--his head, his heart, his wishes, his innocence of all selfish crime, and a hundred years hence, what will be the result?
8488Tell me in whose breast Found ye the fatal scroll?
8488Tell me, by whom thy brother''s blood was spilt?
8488Tell me, on what holy ground May domestic peace be found?
8488Terror?
8488That what?
8488The distinction is marked in a beautiful sentiment of a German poet: Hast thou any thing?
8488The ungrateful creatures began to be as insolent and troublesome as before,& c. How should it be otherwise?
8488These are all excellencies in their kind;--where is the defect?
8488Thou dost me wrong-- Thy soul distemper''d, can my heart be tranquil?
8488Thought Barrere so, when Brissot, Danton died?
8488Thought Barrere so, when through the streaming streets Of Paris red- eyed Massacre, o''er wearied, Reel''d heavily, intoxicate with blood?
8488Was it by merchant wiles I gain''d you back Toulon, when proudly on her captive towers Wav''d high the English flag?
8488Was it for this we hurl''d proud Capet down?
8488Was it not Antony that conquer''d Brutus, Th''Adonis, banquet- hunting Antony?

8488What figure is here?
8488What have the public to do with this?
8488What is beauty?
8488What is more common than to say of a man in love,''he idolizes her,''''he makes a god of her?''
8488What is the harm?
8488What is the seclusive or distinguishing term between them?
8488What proofs adduced you when the Danton died?
8488What should we think of the coxcomb who should have objected to him, that he contradicted his own system?
8488What then is it?
8488What would''st thou have a good great man obtain?

8488When at the imminent peril of my life I rose, and, fearless of thy frowning brow, Proclaim''d him guiltless?
8488When did the true church offer violence for religion?
8488When did violence ever make a true convert, or bodily punishment, a sincere Christian?
8488Whence comes the difference?
8488Who cast in chains the friends of Liberty?
8488Who screen''d from justice the rapacious thief?
8488Who shall dare determine what spiritual influences may not arise out of the collective evil wills of wicked men?
8488Who spared La Valette?
8488Who to an ex- peer gave the high command?
8488Who, traitor- like, stept forth Amid the hall of Jacobins to save Camille Desmoulins, and the venal wretch D''Eglantine?

8488Why this?
8488Why?
8488Will not this apply equally to the astronomer?
8488Would it be difficult to find parallel descriptions in Dryden''s plays and in those of his successors?
8488Would the abstract propriety of the verses leave him"honourably acquitted?"

8488and how?
8488and is he not a fine man, too, and a handsome man?"
8488and the evil,--while he lived, it injured none but himself; and where is it now?
8488and why should I be in such a tremble all the while he talked?
8488but is the very essence of rational discourse, that is, connection and dependency done away, because the discourse is infallibly rational?
8488can clubs, and staves, and swords, and prisons, and banishments reach the soul, convert the heart, or convince the understanding of man?
8488did not Jesus conquer by these weapons, and vanquish cruelty by suffering?
8488did th''assassin''s dagger aim its point Vain, as a dream of murder, at my bosom; And shall I dread the soft luxurious Tallien?
8488didst thou mark him?
8488had I been so minded, Think ye I had destroy''d the very men Whose plots resembled mine?
8488hast thou not proscrib''d, Yea, in most foul anticipation slaughter''d Each patriot representative of France?
8488hear ye this, my brethren?
8488in Lyons''death- red square Sick fancy groan''d o''er putrid hills of slain, Didst thou not fiercely laugh, and bless the day?
8488it may be said-- but who has ever thought otherwise?
8488m''infiamma Essendo spenta, or che fea dunque ardendo?
8488of what strange crime Is Maximilian Robespierre accused, That through this hall the buzz of discontent Should murmur?
8488or fought I then With merchant wiles, when sword in hand I led Your troops to conquest?
8488or secret- sapping gold?
8488or tell me rather Who forged the shameless falsehood?
8488or the Grecian friends Who buried in Hipparchus''breast the sword, And died triumphant?
8488the stern Tribunal?
8488then, upon the other view of the question, say, Am I in ease and comfort, and dare I wonder that he, poor fellow, acted so and so?
8488was it then for this We swore to guard our liberty with life, That Robespierre should reign?
8488was this a time for amorous conference?
8488what is the common end?
8488what words can tell?
8488when appall''d The hireling sons of England spread the sail Of safety, fought I like a merchant then?
8488when did the true religion persecute?
8488who lap- dogs guard, Why snatch''d ye not away your precious ward?
8488who promoted him, Stain''d with the deep die of nobility?
8488who shall dare belie My spotless name?
8488who shall speak?

6081And of himselfe imaginid he ofte To ben defaitid, pale and woxin lesse Than he was wonte, and that men saidin softe, What may it be? 6081 And what, Sir,"he said, after a short pause,"might the cost be?"
6081Only three guineas for selling a thousand copies of a work in two volumes?
6081Queen of all harmonious things, Dancing words and speaking strings, What god, what hero, wilt thou sing? 6081 STATUE- GHOST.--Will you not relent and feel remorse?
6081Was not this love? 6081 What then are we to understand?
6081--"Thirty and two pages?
6081--a sophism, which I fully agree with Warburton, is unworthy of Milton; how much more so of the awful Person, in whose mouth he has placed it?
6081--or have brought all the different marks and circumstances of a sealoch before the mind, as the actions of a living and acting power?
6081--or have spoken of boys with a string of club- moss round their rusty hats, as the boys"with their green coronal?"
6081A man of fortune?
6081Alexander and Clytus!--Flattery?
6081Alexander and Clytus!--anger-- drunkenness-- pride-- friendship-- ingratitude-- late repentance?
6081And by the latter in consequence only of the former?
6081And by what rules could he direct his choice, which would not have enabled him to select and arrange his words by the light of his own judgment?
6081And how came the percipient here?
6081And how can I do this better than by pointing out its gallant attention to the ladies?
6081And how much, did you say, there was to be for the money?"
6081And since then, Sir--?
6081And to what law can their motions be subjected but that of time?
6081And what is become of the wonder- promising Matter, that was to perform all these marvels by force of mere figure, weight and motion?
6081And yet, though under this impression, should have commenced his critique in vulgar exultation with a prophecy meant to secure its own fulfilment?
6081Anna mia, Anna dolce, oh sempre nuovo E piu chiaro concento, Quanta dolcezza sento In sol Anna dicendo?
6081Are they the style used in the ordinary intercourse of spoken words?
6081As eyes, for which the former has pre- determined their field of vision, and to which, as to its organ, it communicates a microscopic power?
6081But I must yield, for this"( what?)
6081But Milton-- D. Aye Milton, indeed!--but do not Dr. Johnson and other great men tell us, that nobody now reads Milton but as a task?
6081But are books the only channel through which the stream of intellectual usefulness can flow?
6081But are such rhetorical caprices condemnable only for their deviation from the language of real life?
6081But is this a poet, of whom a poet is speaking?
6081But is this the order, in which the rustic would have placed the words?
6081But now, perplex''d by what the Old Man had said, My question eagerly did I renew,''How is it that you live, and what is it you do?''
6081But tell me, do tell me,--Is I not, now and den, speak some fault?
6081But what is there to account for the prodigy of the tempest at Bertram''s shipwreck?
6081But where are the evidences of the danger, to which a future historian can appeal?
6081But where findeth he wisdom?
6081But why need I appeal to these invidious facts?
6081But why should I say retire?
6081But why then do you pretend to admire Shakespeare?
6081By meditation, rather than by observation?
6081By reflection?
6081CHAPTER XXIII Quid quod praefatione praemunierim libellum, qua conor omnem offendiculi ansam praecidere?
6081Can any candid and intelligent mind hesitate in determining, which of these best represents the tendency and native character of the poet''s genius?
6081Coleridge?"
6081D. But do you not know, that he has distributed papers and hand- bills of a seditious nature among the common people?
6081Dear, could my heart not break, When with my pleasures ev''n my rest was gone?
6081Devils, say you?
6081Does e''en thy age bear Memory of so terrible a storm?
6081Does he not send for a posse of constables or thief- takers to handcuff the villain, or take him either to Bedlam or Newgate?
6081Does not the Prior act?
6081E che non fammi, O sassi, O rivi, o belue, o Dii, questa mia vaga Non so, se ninfa, o magna, Non so, se donna, o Dea, Non so, se dolce o rea?
6081For surely these words could never mean, that a painter may have a person sit to him who afterwards may leave the room or perhaps the country?
6081For to what law can the action of material atoms be subject, but that of proximity in place?
6081For wherein does the realism of mankind properly consist?
6081Had she remained constant?
6081Harp?
6081Hast sent the hare?
6081Have we not flown off to the contrary extreme?]
6081Here then shall I conclude?
6081How can we make bricks without straw;--or build without cement?
6081How convened?
6081How is the reader at the mercy of such men?
6081How shall I explain this?
6081How then?
6081How, therefore, is the poor husband to amuse himself in this interval of her penance?
6081How?
6081However, as once for all, you have dismissed the well- known events and personages of history, or the epic muse, what have you taken in their stead?
6081I began then to ask myself, what proof I had of the outward existence of anything?
6081I know all about it!--But what can anybody say more than this?
6081IMOG.--(with a frantic laugh) The forest fiend hath snatched him-- He( who?
6081If a man be asked how he knows that he is?
6081If he continue to read their nonsense, is it not his own fault?
6081If it be asked,"But what shall I deem such?"
6081If possible, what are its necessary conditions?
6081In fancy I can almost hear him now, exclaiming"Harp?
6081In the assertion that there exists a something without them, what, or how, or where they know not, which occasions the objects of their perception?
6081In what sense does he read"the eternal deep?"
6081In what sense is a child of that age a Philosopher?
6081In what sense is he declared to be"for ever haunted"by the Supreme Being?
6081Is I not in some wrong?
6081Is I not speak English very fine?
6081Is it comedy?
6081Is it obtained by wandering about in search of angry or jealous people in uncultivated society, in order to copy their words?
6081Is it, perhaps, that you only pretend to admire him?
6081Is the diffusion of truth to be estimated by publications; or publications by the truth, which they diffuse or at least contain?
6081Is there one word, for instance, attributed to the pedlar in THE EXCURSION, characteristic of a Pedlar?
6081Is, is-- I mean to ask you now, my dear friend-- is I not very eloquent?
6081It can not surely be, that the four lines, immediately following, are to contain the explanation?
6081JOHN.--Are these some of your retinue?
6081Lastly, if you ask me, whether I have read THE MESSIAH, and what I think of it?
6081Learning, Sir?
6081Lyre?
6081Metre in itself is simply a stimulant of the attention, and therefore excites the question: Why is the attention to be thus stimulated?
6081Muse, boy, Muse?
6081My beauty, little child, is flown, But thou wilt live with me in love; And what if my poor cheek be brown?
6081Need the rank have been at all particularized, where nothing follows which the knowledge of that rank is to explain or illustrate?
6081No!--A clerk?
6081No!--A merchant''s traveller?
6081No!--A merchant?
6081No!--Un Philosophe, perhaps?
6081Only fourteen years old?
6081Or between that of rage and that of jealousy?
6081Or even if this were admitted, has the poet no property in his works?
6081Or have represented the reflection of the sky in the water, as"That uncertain heaven received into the bosom of the steady lake?"
6081Or in the IDLE SHEPHERD- BOYS?
6081Or in the LUCY GRAY?
6081Or is wealth the only rational object of human interest?
6081Or must he rest on an assertion?
6081Or not far rather by the power of imagination proceeding upon the all in each of human nature?
6081Or on the other, that they are not prosaic, and for that reason unpoetic?
6081Or that it is vicious, and that the stanzas are blots in THE FAERY QUEEN?
6081Or where can the poet have lived?
6081Our whole information[ 84] is derived from the following words--"PRIOR.--Where is thy child?
6081Over what place, thought I, does the moon hang to your eye, my dearest friend?
6081P. But I pray you, friend, in what actions great or interesting, can such men be engaged?
6081P. It is your own poor pettifogging nature then, which you desire to have represented before you?--not human nature in its height and vigour?
6081Pierian spring?
6081Quid autem facias istis, qui vel ob ingenii pertinaciam sibi satisfieri nolint, vel stupidiores sint, quam ut satisfactionem intelligant?
6081Say rather how dare I be ashamed of the Teutonic theosophist, Jacob Behmen?
6081Sir, the men are without number, and infinite blindness supplies the place of sight?
6081Such a position therefore must, in the first instance be demanded, and the first question will be, by what right is it demanded?
6081That there exist no inconveniences, who will pretend to assert?
6081The grammar, Sir?
6081To their question,"Why did you choose such a character, or a character from such a rank of life?"
6081Vel-- and vat is dhat?
6081Was it ambition?
6081Was it his spirit, by spirits taught to write Above a mortal pitch that struck me dead?
6081What God?
6081What Man shall we celebrate?
6081What can be more accurate yet more lovely than the two concluding stanzas?
6081What happy man to equal glories bring?
6081What has a plain citizen of London, or Hamburg, to do with your kings and queens, and your old school- boy Pagan heroes?
6081What have you heard?
6081What heroes has she reared on her buskins?
6081What if he himself has owned, that beauties as great are scattered in abundance throughout the whole book?
6081What literary man has not regretted the prudery of Spratt in refusing to let his friend Cowley appear in his slippers and dressing gown?
6081What then did he mean?
6081What then may you be?
6081What then shall we say?
6081What?
6081Whence gained he the superiority of foresight?
6081Whence then cometh wisdom?
6081Where dwelleth understanding?
6081Where is the place of understanding?
6081Where is thy child?
6081Who also can deny a portion of sublimity to the tremendous consistency with which he stands out the last fearful trial, like a second Prometheus?
6081Who can listen to you for a minute, who can even look at you, without perceiving the extent of it?
6081Who dares suspect it?
6081Who dies, that bears Not one spurn to the grave of their friends''gift?
6081Who lives, that''s not Depraved or depraves?
6081Whom has your tragic muse armed with her bowl and dagger?
6081Why dost thou urge her with the horrid theme?
6081Why need I be afraid?
6081Why, I repeat, do you pretend to admire Shakespeare?
6081Will it be contended on the one side, that these lines are mean and senseless?
6081Would then the mere superaddition of metre, with or without rhyme, entitle these to the name of poems?
6081Yet will Mr. Wordsworth say, that the style of the following stanza is either undistinguished from prose, and the language of ordinary life?
6081and are they by no other means to be precluded, but by the rejection of all distinctions between prose and verse, save that of metre?
6081and what are they?
6081and what do you know of the person in question?
6081are not our modern sentimental plays filled with the best Christian morality?

6081by knowledge?

6081or how can it be called the child, if it be no part of the child''s conscious being?
6081or so inspired as to deserve the splendid titles of a Mighty Prophet, a blessed Seer?

6081the fiend or the child?)
6081the sentimental muse I should have said, whom you have seated in the throne of tragedy?
6081thou hast something seen?"
6081what Hero?
6081what could this mean?
6081what man to join with these can worthy prove?
6081who can the sothe gesse, Why Troilus hath al this hevinesse?
6081without some lehrning?
41705How much is that in yards or feet?
41705If we say so of the Sicilians, why may not Buonaparte say this of the Swiss?
41705Is not that a nice one?
41705The Beggar''s Petitionis a fair instance, and what if I dared to add Gray''s"Elegy in a Country Churchyard"?
41705What do you mean, my love?
41705A.D. 1806[?
41705And all the thoughts, pains, joys of mortal breath, A war- embrace of wrestling life and death?
41705And for what reason, say, rather, for what cause, do you believe immortality?
41705And if the latter be fit objects of a final cause, why not the former?
41705And is not man a being capable of Beauty even as of Hunger and Thirst?
41705And now where is it?
41705And though it may receive the assent of the people of"the squares and places,"yet what does that do, if it be the ridicule of all other classes?
41705And what are these?
41705And what if joy pass quick away?
41705And what is a moment?
41705And what is the height and ideal of mere association?
41705And what then?
41705And whence arises the pleasure from musing on the latter?
41705And wherefore?
41705And who are the friends of the People?
41705And why is difference linked with hatred?
41705And why is this?
41705And yet scarcely more than that other moment of fifty or sixty years, were that our all?
41705Are not the words precisely appropriate, so that you can not change them without changing the force and meaning?
41705Are they not pure English?
41705Are they the poor and despised, the unalphabeted in worldly learning?
41705Besides, when are the rebukes, the chastisements to commence?
41705But IT?
41705But Sweden, Norway, Germany, the Tyrol?
41705But are they not even now intelligible to man, woman, and child?
41705But how far is this state produced by pain and denaturalisation?
41705But the implements with which we reap, how are they gained?
41705But the question of the source of the remark is, to whom?
41705But what can I say, when I have declared my abhorrence of the_ Edinburgh Review_?
41705But what is love?
41705But who are the swine?
41705But why?
41705Can he be an adequate, can he be a good critic, though not commensurate[ with the poet criticised]?
41705Compare this with the Law of Conscience-- Is it not its specific character to be immediate, positive, unalterable?
41705Did I not particularly notice the_ un_likeness on my first arrival at Malta?
41705Do not the bad passions in dreams throw light and show of proof upon this hypothesis?
41705Does not everyone do this in looking at any conspicuous three stars together?
41705Does the understanding say nothing in favour of immortality?
41705Even that is less absurd than the conceit of deducing the Divine being?
41705Every man asks_ how_?
41705Final causes answer to why?
41705For what is forgetfulness?
41705Fruition?
41705Grant all this-- that_ they_ will_ out_grow these particular actions, yet with what HABITS of_ feeling_ will they arrive at youth and manhood?
41705Had I forgot the caterpillar?
41705Has the bird hope?
41705Have you never seen a stick broken in the middle, and yet cohering by the rind?
41705His pains and sorrows[ what are they but] the fertilising rain?
41705How continued but by a_ causative power_ in the soul?
41705How indeed is it possible at once to_ love_ Pascal and Voltaire?
41705How many hostile tenets has it enabled me to contemplate as fragments of truth, false only by negation and mutual exclusion?
41705How shall we think of this compatibly with the monad soul?
41705How was this?
41705I ask, to what do they belong in my waking remembrance?
41705I could not find it, it was not on the table-- had it dropped on the ground?
41705I fear I can make nothing out of it; but why do I always hurry away from any interesting thought to do something uninteresting?
41705I never, except as a forced courtesy of conversation, ask in a stage- coach, Whose house is that?
41705I quoted your own exposition, and dare you with these opinions charge others with superstition?
41705I searched and searched everywhere, my pockets, my fobs, impossible places-- literally it had vanished, and where was it?
41705I turned to Greenough and"Who broke his bottle?"
41705If my researches are shadowy, what, in the name of reason, are you?

41705Is not a real_ event_ in the body well represented by this phrase?
41705Is not the reproduction of the lizard a complete generation?
41705Is not the very nature of superstition in general, as being utterly sensuous,_ cold_ except where it is_ sensual_?
41705Is there no other edition?
41705Is there, then, disproportion here?
41705Is this a guide, or primary guide, that for ever requires a guide against itself?

41705Love as it may subsist between two persons of different senses?

41705What if our existence was but that moment?
41705What if the natural life have two possible terminations-- true Being and the falling back into the dark Will?

8956Deny this, and to what does the''modum nescimus''refer?
8956Did Bunyan refer to the Quakers as rejecting the outward Sacraments of Baptism and the Lord''s Supper?
8956Did St. Paul by[ Greek: homoi_ómati sarkòs hamartiás] mean a deceptive resemblance?
8956Did they not call his preaching sedition, and call his miracles conjuring?
8956Did you ever see your sins, and feel the burden of them, so as to cry out in the anguish of your soul, What must I do to be saved?
8956Do the material causes act positively, so that with the removal of the body by death the total cause is removed, and of course the effects?

8956For what is love?
8956For what rectitude is due to the specifical act of hating God?
8956For wherein does the Sacrament of the Eucharist differ from that of Baptism, nay, even of grace before meat, when performed fervently and in faith?
8956For who would not prefer the latter, if the former mean everlasting misery?
8956Hacket himself repeatedly implies as much; for would he deny that the King with the Lords and Commons is not more than the King without them?
8956Had St. Paul anything beyond the Law and the Prophets in his mind?
8956Had he either faith or works before that union of both natures?
8956Had not John so declared him at the baptism?
8956Had the followers of George Fox, or any number of them collectively, acknowledged the mad notions of this Hendrick Nicholas?
8956Has or has not Grotius been overrated?
8956He spake personally, and he spake aloud, in the declaration of miracles; but''quis credidit auditui Filii?''
8956His argument was, To what end?
8956Hooker should have asked-- Has it hitherto had this effect on Christians generally?
8956How came it that Taylor did not apply the same process to the congeneric question of the freedom of the will?
8956How can we explain a''species'', when we are wholly in the dark as to the''genus''?

8956How many?
8956How much of truth was there in the Spaniard''s information respecting the intrigues of the Prince and the Duke of Buckingham?
8956How so?
8956How then can an inference from a particular, a variously proveable and proof- requiring, position be itself a universal and self- evident one?
8956How, then, are we to understand it?
8956How?
8956How?
8956I see the wit of this speech; but the wisdom, the Christianity, the beseemingness of it in a Judge and a Bishop,--what am I to say of that?
8956If Christ delegated no external compulsory power to the Bishops, how came it the duty of princes to God to do so?
8956If even to seek the Lord be joy, what will it be to find him?
8956If it be hard to explain how Adam fell; how much more hard to solve how purely spiritual beings could fall?
8956If it mean more, pray where was the grace in creating a being, who without an especial grace must pass into utter misery?
8956If so: where is God''s justice in Taylor''s plan more than in Calvin''s?
8956If tangible by Thomas''s fingers, why not by his teeth, that is, manducable?
8956If they were symbols of spiritual acts and processes, as Fox and Penn contended, they must have been, or happened;--else how could they be symbols?
8956If this, then, be not a fundamental article of faith, what can be?
8956If true, how could it be omitted in so many, and these the most authentic, copies?
8956In common honesty he must have answered, No!--Do I then blame the Church of England for retaining this ceremony?
8956In short, where omnipotence is on one side, what but utter impotence can remain for the other?
8956In this, as in what not?
8956In whose churches and parishes were all the other pastoral duties, catechizing, visiting the poor and the like, most strictly practised?
8956Is hell so easy a pain, or are the souls of children of so cheap, so contemptible a price, that God should so easily throw them into hell?
8956Is it an end only, and not likewise the means?
8956Is it clear that''Scripturarum''depends on''auctoritate''?
8956Is it likely to produce this effect and this principally?
8956Is it merely the triumphal feast; or is it not even more truly a blessed refreshment for and during the conflict?
8956Is it not admitted that Robert Stephens first divided the New Testament into verses in 1551?
8956Is it not contained in the eleventh of the Acts, and in a score other separable portions?
8956Is it not evident that Christ here converted negatives into positives?
8956Is it not, at least logically considered and at the commencement of an argument, too like a''petitio principii''or''presumptio rei litigatae''?
8956Is it quite clear that the Macedonian was not the fourth empire; 1. the Assyrian; 2. the Median; 3. the Persian; 4. the Macedonian?
8956Is not every sheep of his flock a part of the Bishop''s charge, and of course the possible object of his censure?
8956Is not the last sentence beautiful?
8956Is not this going too far?
8956Is not this sacrament medicine as well as food?
8956Is not this the common doctrine among the Fathers?
8956Is not this, even with the saving afterwards, too nakedly expressed?
8956Is then the Creed of greater authority than the inspired Scriptures?
8956Is this a possible act to any man understanding by the word God what we mean by God?
8956Is this quite fair?
8956Is''wane''a misprint for''wave''or''waive?''
8956It will not be said then,"Did you believe?"
8956Let all these belong to the overseer of the Church: to whom else so properly?
8956Might I not almost say, that it rather increases with the decrease of the consciously discerned evidence?
8956Most true; but still the question returns, what was meant by the phrase''the''Christ?
8956Nay, what had he believed?
8956Now do not these Fathers reply, By the Church?
8956Now do they not worship God in the visible form of bread, and prostrate themselves before pictures of the Trinity?
8956Now then I demand, whether the prayer of Manasses be so good a prayer as the Lord''s prayer?
8956On every subject first ask, Is it among the[ Greek: aisthaetà], or the[ Greek: noúmena]?
8956Opinion?
8956Or is the prayer of Judith, or of Tobias, or of Judas Maccabeus, or of the son of Sirach, is any of these so good?
8956Or should I be talking of a chimera, a shadow, or a non- entity?
8956Perceive we not how they, whose tenderness shrinketh at the least rase of a needle''s point, do kiss the sword that pierceth their souls quite thorow?
8956Pray what is nature?

8956Reader, was this ever your case?
8956Shall he not at the altar offer up at once his desire, and the yet lingering sin, and seek for strength?
8956Should that process, the end and virtue of which is to free the will, destroy the free will?
8956Surely you would not distinguish the Scripture from its contents?
8956The Bishop flutters about and about, but never fairly answers the question, What does Baptism do?
8956This Plato knew; and art thou a master in Israel, and knowest it not?
8956This appears to me to furnish an interesting example of the bad consequences in reasoning, as well as in morals, of the''cui bono?
8956This freedom, then, is the free gift of God; but does it therefore cease to be freedom?
8956This, in the intention of the preacher, may have been sound, but was it safe, divinity?
8956To the linking of this with that, of A. with Z. by''intermedia,''the term''mode,''--the question''how?''
8956Upon what ground then does the Church of England reconcile with this decree its reception of the so called Athanasian creed?
8956Was there Scripture authority for Archbishops?
8956Was there no King of Kings and Lord of Lords; and does the name Jove instead of Jehovah( perhaps the same word too) make the difference?
8956We all know what we mean by the Scriptures, but how know we what they mean by the Church, which is neither thing nor person?
8956Well then, why not say that, since that is all you can mean?
8956Were Marcus Antoninus and Epictetus idolaters?
8956Were they not rather perishing for lack of knowledge?
8956What Romanist ever asserted that a communicant''s palate deceived him, when it reported the taste of bread or of wine in the elements?
8956What canst thou imagine he could foresee in thee?
8956What could God suffer?
8956What could Jeremy Taylor say for the necessity of his sense( which is mine) but what might be said for the necessity of the Nicene Creed?
8956What did Jerome mean?
8956What did he mean by the''soul?''
8956What else can be said?
8956What had he done?
8956What in the name of common sense can this mean, that is, speculatively?
8956What is the apostasy, or fall of spirits?
8956What is the consequence of the apostasy?
8956What is this?
8956What is wisdom?
8956What occasioned so great a change in its favour since the time of Charles II?
8956What then is it?
8956What then?--that God can not make what has been not to have been?
8956What, then, has the sinner who is the subject of grace no hand in keeping up the work of grace in the heart?
8956What, then, was their guilt, who by terror and legal penalties tempted their fellow Christians to this treacherous mockery?
8956What?
8956What?
8956Whatsoever the soul finds adverse to her well being, or incompatible with her free action?
8956Where is the probability of this so long before the existence of the collection since called the New Testament?
8956Where is the proof that Tertullian was speaking of this Creed?
8956Where should they remain together?
8956Where the premisses are so different, who can wonder at the difference in the conclusions?
8956Where?
8956Who believed even his report?
8956Who doubts that all that is indispensable to the salvation of each and every one is contained in the New Testament?
8956Who is so wise as to find out this way''?
8956Who knows, but that they would have prevented Judas, and betrayed him for thirty pieces of silver unto Herod?
8956Why not say at once, that this anti- Scriptural superstition had already begun?
8956Why not''good tidings?''
8956Why should the obsolete, though faithful, Saxon translation of[ Greek: euaggélion] be retained?

8956Why thus change a most appropriate and intelligible designation of the matter into a mere conventional name of a particular book?
8956Why were not Mr. Charke and the other Canterbury parson called to account, or questioned at least as to the truth of Mrs. Joan''s story?
8956Why will not Taylor speak out?
8956Why?
8956Why?
8956Why?
8956Will any man here notwithstanding allege those mentioned human infirmities as reasons why these things should be mistrusted or doubted of?
8956Will it hold good to say, if it was law after the sanction, it was law before?
8956Will not this argument justify all idolaters?
8956Would Taylor assert that the man was made to swallow a poison?
8956Would more go to hell by nature alone?
8956Would this prove that the patient''s revalescence had been independent of the medicines given him?
8956Would you understand with your ears instead of hearing with your understanding?

10801''Let us lie in wait for the righteous'',& c. How then could Philo have remained a Jew?
10801And behold a certain lawyer stood up and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do''to inherit eternal life''?
10801Can he be a sane man who records the subsequent reverie as matter of fact? 10801 Do you love your neighbour?"
10801For what other separation can be conceived in mind but distinction? 10801 He said unto him,''What is written in the law?

10801(''that mercy'') of this discourse?
10801*** And if you conquer him, what the better are you?
10801*** But let us ask in return,"Is it worthy of a being wearing the figure of a man to require such proofs as these to determine his judgment?"
10801--Who would not suppose it notorious that every Methodist meeting- house was a cage of Newgate larks making up their minds to die game?
10801--but--"Are you certain that Christ has saved''you''; that he died for''you-- you-- you--yourself''?"
10801--even when our divines do proceed to the religion itself, on what do they chiefly dwell?
1080198, 99, 100?
10801A tinder spark gives light to an Argand''s lamp: is it therefore more luminous?
10801Again, does he admit the authenticity of the Gospels, and the veracity of the Evangelists?
10801Again, does this eternal damnation of the individual depend on the supposed importance of the article denied?
10801Am I sure that the Reformers, Luther and the rest collectively, were fanatics?"
10801And again and again I ask:--Were not these"old moral divines"the authors and compilers of the Homilies?
10801And can God communicate infinite wisdom and infinite power to a creature or a finite nature?
10801And can anything be more flittery and special- pleading than Skelton''s objections?
10801And did he not announce by the Holy Spirit the resurrection to judgment, of glory or of punishment?
10801And does Scripture permit me to subscribe to an ordinance made in direct contempt of a command of Scripture?
10801And does the Socinian extricate himself a whit more clearly?
10801And he was put to death by the appointment and predetermination of God?
10801And how was the pure bullion so thoughtlessly made as to have an elective affinity for this Devil?
10801And into what may not any thing be thus explained?
10801And is it not the meaning of the preacher?
10801And is not the authorizing another to judge by equity and mercy the same as judging so ourselves?
10801And is not''Scripture''as often used semi- adjectively?
10801And pray where is the practical difference?
10801And pray, how and by whom were the Coronation Oaths first imposed?
10801And what then?
10801And whence has the Barrister learnt that the Epistles are not equally binding on Christians as the four Gospels?
10801And wherein can such a consciousness as that attributed to the Son differ from absolute certainty?
10801And wherein did Carlestad and Luther differ?
10801And who shall dare unconditionally condemn those who judged the former to be the better alternative?
10801And why are the philosophers to be judged according to a different rule?
10801And will"the far greater part"of the English Clergy remain silent under so atrocious a libel as is contained in this page?
10801And would his fellow- sectaries thank him, or admit the consequences?
10801And would you tell him that the very expectation of his just right''was as foolish as it was tyrannical''?"
10801Are memory, understanding, and volition persons,--self- subsistents?
10801Are not Philo''s works full of, crowded with, Platonic and Pythagorean philosophy?
10801Are the many passages concerning the Devil and demoniacs so very easy?
10801Are there not facts in religion, the causes and constitution of which are mysteries?
10801Are we bound to receive them as articles of faith?
10801As interpreted by whom?
10801As to contingency, whence did Mr. Davison learn that it is a necessary accompaniment of freedom, or of free action?
10801As to their rejection of the other Gospels and of Paul''s writings, I might ask:--"Could they read them?"
10801Ask yourselves, therefore,''what you would be at'', and with what dispositions you come to this most sacred table?
10801B. C. of the''Catechumeni''previously to their Baptismal initiation into the higher mysteries, to the''strong meat''which was not for babes''?
10801Besides, of what use is it?
10801But Calvinistic Methodism?
10801But Law Tracts?
10801But are not the receivers as bad as the thief?
10801But are they excluded from the kingdom of heaven, that is, the Christian Church?
10801But does not Methodism cry aloud that all men are sick-- sick to the very heart?
10801But here one may say; the sins which daily we commit, do offend and anger God; how then can we be holy?
10801But how does he express that promise?
10801But how, I would ask, is this position to be defended?
10801But if a man begins to reflect on his past life, is he to withstand the inclination?
10801But if that Name, as power, saved the Jewish Church before they knew the Name, as name, how much more now, if only the will be not guiltily averse?
10801But in case ten such persons should all, at different times, confirm the same report, how would this affect you?
10801But should not remembrancers be thrown in the way of sinners, and the voice of warning sound through every street and every wilderness?
10801But then how is this peculiar to Christ?
10801But to many of those that dissent from you, they are sinful,& c. But what is all this, good worthy Baxter, but saying and unsaying?
10801But what excuse shall be made for the revival of this presumptuous encroachment on the divine prerogative in our days?
10801But what has all this to do with a distinction of Persons?
10801But what if he breaks his promise and your head?
10801But what if he has not done it, but the very contrary?
10801But what makes St. Gregory dispute thus nicely, and oppose the common and ordinary forms of speech?
10801But what need of many words?
10801But who can expect more than hints in a marginal note?
10801But who hath power to forgive or to detain sins?
10801But why, in the name of common sense, all this endless whoop and hubbub against the Calvinistic Methodists?
10801But why?
10801But, except by the Spirit, whence are we to ascertain this?
10801Call it what you will;--but do you believe the fact?
10801Can he, who has no share in the danger, be interested in the saving?
10801Can it be conceived other than as the result of imperfection, that is, finiteness?
10801Can morality exist without choice;--nay, strengthen in proportion as it becomes more independent of the will?
10801Can the Barrister have read the New Testament?
10801Can there be fouler hypocrisy in the Spanish Inquisition than this?
10801Can this first sentence be other than madness or a lie?
10801Can we deny that it is unbelief of those things that causeth this neglect and forgetting of them?
10801Could Luther have been ignorant, that this clause was not inserted into the Apostle''s Creed till the sixth century after Christ?
10801Could St. Peter with propriety have introduced the truth to a prejudiced audience with its deepest mysteries?
10801Did Christ say, that true repentance and actual faith would not save a soul, unless the priest''s verbal remission was superadded?
10801Did Dr. Hawker say that it was impossible to produce an assent to the historic credibility of the facts related in the Gospel?
10801Did any Methodist ever teach that salvation may be attained without sanctification?
10801Did he in good earnest believe that there is but one man in the world?
10801Did he say that it was impossible to become a Socinian by the weighing of outward evidences?
10801Did not John the Baptist himself teach a pure system of moral truth?
10801Did the Jews reject those doctrines?
10801Do not the plainest intuitions of our moral and rational being confirm the positions here attributed to the Deist, Dechaine?
10801Do they believe them literally?
10801Do they indeed solemnly pray to their Maker weekly, before God and man, in the words of a Liturgy, which, they know,"can not be believed?"
10801Do we not admit by this very phrase"enlightened,"that we owe our exemption to our intellectual advantages, not primarily to our moral superiority?
10801Do we not pray by Act of Parliament twenty times every Sunday''through the only merits of Jesus Christ''?
10801Do you hold that a man is justified by this regeneration, as is St. Austin''s opinion?
10801Do you not believe these facts?"
10801Does faith commence by generating the receptivity of itself?
10801Does he credit the facts there related, and as related?
10801Does he, or can he, exist as a conscious individual agent or person?
10801Does it not follow therefore, that there are perfections which the All- perfect does not possess?"
10801Does not Christ himself say the same in the plainest and most unmistakable words?
10801Does not Jude refer to an apocryphal book?
10801Does not every man stand or fall to his own Maker according to his own being?
10801Does not this require infinite wisdom and infinite power?
10801Does our author think that no atheist or infidel, no unbelieving Jew or heathen, ever used reasonable diligence to be rightly informed?
10801Does the Athanasian or rather the''pseudo''-Athanasian Creed differ from the Nicene, or not?
10801Does the law excuse the murder because the perpetrator was drunk?
10801For do not the duties and temptations occur in real life even so intermingled?
10801For does not his reason equally extend to the Christian Faith itself, as to those points which have been controverted in Christian Churches?
10801For how can any spiritual truth be comprehended?
10801For the one tenet in which the Calvinist differs from the majority of Christians, are there not ten in which the Socinian differs from all?
10801For why?
10801Had Waterland ever thought of the relation of his own understanding to his reason?
10801Has Christ declared any antipathy to washerwomen, or the Holy Ghost to warm suds?
10801Has not God himself expounded it?
10801Has there been any union lately?
10801Have the Persons attributes distinct from their nature;--or does not their common nature constitute their common attributes?
10801Have the followers of Wesley abjured the doctrines of their founder on this head?
10801Have they at length exploded all"doctrinal mysteries?"
10801Have we not adopted the Hebrew word, Jehovah,?
10801Have you any doubts about the truth of what is told us by the historians concerning that memorable transaction?
10801He does not seem to be aware of the school- boy distinction between the[ Greek: hóti esti] and the[ Greek: dióti]?
10801How came it that Peter saw miracles countless, and yet was without faith till the Holy Ghost descended on him?
10801How can obedience exist, where disobedience was not possible?
10801How could a man of Noble''s sense and sensibility bring himself thus to profane the awful name of Milton, by associating it with the epithet"Puritan?"
10801How could a regenerate saint put off corruption at the sound of the trump, if up to that hour it did not in some sense or other appertain to him?
10801How else could it be a birth,--a creation?
10801How far?
10801How many Methodists, does the Barrister think, ever saw, much less read, a work of Calvin''s?
10801How readest thou?''"
10801How so?
10801How then can the Son be righteous?)
10801How then can they be excluded from a share in Church Government?
10801How was the religious, as distinguished from the moral, sense first awakened?
10801I do not see the necessity of this: does not Christ say,''My Father and I will come and we will dwell in you?''
10801I would ask one of them again, How they can know that it is daylight, except some light a candle to let them see it?
10801If Christ had no Church then, where was his wisdom, his love, and his power?
10801If Christ had reasoned so, why did not the Barrister quote his words, instead of putting imaginary words in his mouth?
10801If he feels a commencing shame and sorrow, is he to check the feeling?
10801If he scorns the name of Socinus as his authority, and appeals to Scripture, do not the Methodists the same?
10801If it be the same as the Nicene, why not be content with the Nicene?
10801If it differs, how dare we retain both?
10801If it were otherwise, how could it be imputed as righteousness?
10801If it"concerned him only as a man,"why is he placed after the angels?
10801If not, what are they to the purpose?
10801If not, what may all this mean?
10801If not, what use is either the granting or the withholding?
10801If not, why Elijah rather than any other Prophet?
10801If not, why do you stop here?
10801If so, then so is all philosophy: for what system is there, the elements and outlines of which are not to be found in the Greek schools?
10801If the Father can do the former, why not the latter?
10801If they are not indifferent, why did you previously concede them to be such?
10801If you have the impudence to persevere in mis- naming this"love,"supply any one instance in which you use the word in this sense?
10801In other words that ABC are so legible that they are legible to every one that has learnt to read?
10801In the Trinity all the''How s''?
10801In the name of patience, over and over again, who has ever denied this?
10801In the original doctrines expressed in the premisses?
10801In the particular deductions, logically considered?
10801In what consists its necessity?
10801In what part of their works?
10801In what respect, I pray, can this statement be strengthened by any reasoning about the nature and distinctive essence of miracles''in abstracto''?
10801In what sense?
10801In what work do they quote him?
10801Is a mere creature a fit lieutenant or representative of God in personal or prerogative acts of government and power?
10801Is any creature capable of the government of the world?
10801Is it certain that the so called Apostles''Creed was more than the mere catechism of the Catechumens?
10801Is it not a conviction produced in the mind by adequate testimony?
10801Is it not mere repetition in time?
10801Is it not more probable that a living prophet had delivered the charge to Cyrus?
10801Is it not the effect of all illustrious examples, of those probably most which we last read of, or which made the deepest impression on our feelings?
10801Is it not the very nose which( of flesh or wax) this very Legislature insists on as an indispensable qualification for every Christian face?
10801Is mercy incompatible with righteousness?
10801Is not God conscious of every thought of man;--and would Sherlock allow me to deduce the unity of the divine consciousness with the human?
10801Is not God conscious to all my thoughts, though I am not conscious of God''s?
10801Is not the lack thereof a felonious deformity, yea, the grimmest feature of the''lues confirmata''of statute heresy?
10801Is not the reconciling of these facts or''phænomena''with the divine attributes, one of the purposes of a revealed religion?
10801Is not the regeneration likewise''gratis'', only by God''s mere mercy?
10801Is not this the case with the Houses of Legislature?
10801Is not this to all intents and purposes ascribing partibility to God?
10801Is the following argument worthy our consideration?
10801Is there a single moral precept of the Gospels not to be found in the Old Testament?
10801Is there sufficient reason to assert them to have been direct revelations immediately vouchsafed to the sacred writers?
10801Is this Barrister a Christian of any sort or sect, and is he not ashamed, if not afraid, to ridicule such passages as these?
10801Is this second''hypothesis''compatible with the acts and functions attributed to the Devil in Scripture?
10801Know you not that the redeemed of Christ and He are one?
10801Must he not have begun with the most evident facts?
10801Must not every being be represented by one of his own kind, a man by a man, an angel by an angel, in such acts as are proper to their natures?
10801Must we therefore reject the most certain truths concerning the Deity, only because they are incomprehensible,& c.?
10801Need I say I incline to Sherlock?
10801No wonder;--because the babe would perish without the mother''s milk, is it therefore loathsome to the mother?
10801Nor I; but what then?
10801Not"Do you wish to love God?"
10801Now I will answer for the Methodists''unhesitating assent and consent to it; but would the Barrister subscribe it?
10801Now how can the Son''s being conscious that the Father is conscious that he is not the Son, constitute a numerical unity?
10801Now this''Symbolum''was to bring together all that must be believed, even by the babes in faith, or to what purpose was it made?
10801Now what is your opinion Sir?
10801Now where is the authority of the Athanasian Creed?
10801On the doctrines peculiar to the religion?
10801On what ground can it be asserted that the Stoics believed in the actual existence of their God- like perfection in any individual?
10801One answer is obvious enough, that the contemporaries of John held Elijah as the common representative of the Prophets; but did Malachi do so?
10801Or does he know it only by quotations?
10801Or has any late Socinian divine discovered, that Do as ye would be done unto, is an interpolated precept?
10801Or on the moral state of the individual, on the inward source of this denial?
10801Or what does he mean exclusively by the latter?
10801Ought I not therefore to retract the note p. 80?
10801Ought not this single quotation to have satisfied the Barrister, that no practical difference is deducible from these doctrines?
10801Pray Mr. Dechaine, are you able, upon the Deistical scheme to rid yourself of this difficulty?
10801Pray, Mr. Dechaine, did you see Julius Cæsar assassinated in the Capitol?
10801Pray, then,( for I will take the Barrister''s own commentary,) what does the man of common sense mean by grace?
10801Shall we believe you, and not rather the companions of Christ, the eye and ear witnesses of his doings and sayings?
10801Should such a man,''compos mentis'', exist,( which I more than doubt,) what could a wise man do but stare-- and leave him?
10801Some probably will say,"What argument can induce us to believe a man in a concern of this nature who gives no visible credentials to his authority?"
10801Surely this is a most abominable profanation of all that is serious,& c. And where pray is the absurdity of this?
10801That is, can a creature be made a true and essential God?
10801That such parts are intelligible as the Barrister understands?
10801That such parts as it possesses in common with all systems of religion and morality are plain and obvious?
10801The belief of the Alexandrian Jews who had acquired Greek philosophy, no doubt;--but of the Palestine Jews?
10801The question is, whether it is wise or expedient, which it may be, or rather may have been, in Scotland, and the contrary in England?
10801The question is:--Does a thief( and a fraudulent debtor is no better) acquire a claim to impunity by not possessing the power of restoring the goods?
10801The question, therefore, is:--Is a national Church, established by law, compatible with Christianity?
10801The rule applies till an extreme case occurs; and how can this be proved?
10801The sacred volume of Holy Writ declares that''true''( pure?)
10801The words here should have been printed,"God is all, and yet is no thing;"For what does''thing''mean?
10801Then if so, what becomes of the Persons?
10801Then what can we believe respecting these causes?
10801Then why all this reasoning?
10801Then why do we make tri- personality in unity peculiar to God?
10801Then( saith the understanding,[ Greek: Tò phrónaema sarkòs]) what doth prayer effect?
10801They are one and the same plant, justification the root, sanctification the flower; and( may I not venture to add?)
10801This is the only( defect, shall I say?
10801To a man who denies a God, or that God can reveal his will to mankind?
10801To dissuade men from reasoning on a subject beyond our faculties?
10801To know God as God([ Greek: tòn Zaena], the living God) we must assume his personality: otherwise what were it but an ether, a gravitation?
10801To me,( why do I say to me?)
10801To such I would only say, Are you in a willing league with any known sin?
10801To what purpose then this windy declamation about John Calvin?
10801To what purpose were these Reflections, taken as a whole, written?
10801To whom is it addressed?
10801True; but is it more than a dispute about words?
10801Under such evidence of God''s wrath how canst thou expect to be saved?"
10801Under what conditions?
10801Was Christ innocent?
10801Was Pordage''s work translated into German?
10801Was ever blindness like unto this blindness?
10801Was he not''the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world''?
10801Was it the Baptismal Creed of the Eastern or Western Church, especially the former?
10801Was not Peter''s sentence against Ananias an act of Church government?
10801Well may the heart cry out,"Who shall deliver me from the''body of this death'',--from this death that lives and tyrannizes in my body?"
10801Well, and who doubts this?
10801Well, and would you call this corruption or incorruptibility?
10801Were all damned who died during the period when''totus fere mundus factus est Arianus'', as one of the Fathers admits?
10801Were the Nicolaitans a sect, properly so called?
10801Were there no good men before Christ, as there were no bad men before Adam?
10801Were you ever at Constantinople, Sir?
10801What Arminians?
10801What analogy does immortal suffering bear to the only death which is known to us?
10801What answered Christ?
10801What can this word mean less or other than that Sir H. W. was either a crypt- Papist, or had received a bribe from the Romish party?
10801What could have been given by the Legislature to the latter which might not be given to the former?
10801What did Luther mean by a body?
10801What if he preaches and publishes without it, will the Legislature dungeon him or not?
10801What is death?--an unhappy life?
10801What is it to us whether Angels are the spirits of just men made perfect, or a distinct class of moral and rational creatures?
10801What is the meaning of these words, that occur so often in the works of great saints?
10801What is the true import of this phrase?
10801What is''faith''?
10801What makes him so zealous then against saying, that Peter, James and John are three men?
10801What may not be explained thus?
10801What means this hollow cant-- this fifty times warmed- up bubble and squeak?
10801What obligation lay on the Scottish Parliament and Church to consult the man Charles Stuart''s personal likes and dislikes?
10801What power not possessed by the Rector of a parish, would he have wished a parochial Bishop to have exerted?
10801What purpose can be answered by any pretended definition of a miracle?
10801What says the reverend critic to this?
10801What shall we say then?
10801What should we think of the grammarian, who, instead of''Historical'', should present us with"Lectures on''History''Facts?"
10801What then does Baxter quarrel about?
10801What then may this singular expression mean?
10801What then?
10801What was become of the glory of his redemption, and his Catholic Church, that was to continue to the end?
10801What was the sentence passed on a heretic?
10801When do they refer to Calvin?
10801Whence came the Devil?
10801Whence this sudden palsy in the limbs of your charity?
10801Where lies the fault?
10801Where then?
10801Who can comprehend his own will; or his own personeity, that is, his I- ship( Ichheit''); or his own mind, that is, his person; or his own life?
10801Who does not feel the insufficiency of this answer?
10801Who expects in realities of any kind the sharp outline and exclusive character of scientific classification?
10801Who that had even rested but in the porch of the Alexandrian philosophy, would not rather say,''of substantiating powers and attributes into being?''
10801Who told the Barrister this?
10801Who would not rather live in Algiers?
10801Who?
10801Why Calvinistic Methodism?
10801Why called the''Son''simply, instead of the Son of Man, or the Messiah?
10801Why disjoin them?
10801Why is this?
