were not am- bitious in heaping up places of Scripture; but they did simply aim at this, which was sufficient for them, to wit, that they might prove that their doctrine was taken out of the word of God; secondly, I say that this prophecy of Amos is more plain than it is commonly taken to be.

LA CARRERA
II
En las desiertas cumbres que la sierra
Á las legiones de la luz levanta,
Paso al cielo tal vez desde la tierra:
Allí, donde árbol, animal, ni planta,
Ni vegeta, ni vaga, ni se encierra
Bajo la eterna nieve, y se quebranta
Cuanto vida ó calor toma del suelo
Al peso de una atmósfera de hielo,
Se abre por las montañas un camino,
Más bien un tajo, que sus breñas parte
Como una faja de
planchado
lino,
El cual dirige al colosal baluarte
De la nieve.

Mrs Semprill was the town scandalmonger-the most eminent, that is, of the
town’s many scandalmongers Having got what he wanted (he was constantly
pestering Dorothy to come to his house more often), Mr Warburton said au
revoir and left Dorothy to do the remainder of her shopping
In the semi-gloom of Solepipe’s shop, she was just moving away from the
counter with her two and a half yards of casement cloth, when she was aware of
a low,
mournful
voice at her ear It was Mrs Semprill She was a slender
