There is no single member of mine which lacketh right and truth. Door bolts. "We will not let thee enter in through us unless thou tellest our names." Deceased. "'Tongue of the place of Right and Truth' is your name." Right post. "I will not let thee enter in by me unless thou tellest my name." Deceased. "'Scale of the lifter up of right and truth' is thy name." Left post.

But on they rode toward the green of the woods, and ever as they rode Giles sang full blithely to himself whiles Roger gloomed and sighed; wherefore at last the archer turned to clap him on the shoulder. "What aileth thee, my Rogerkin?" quoth he. "Ha," growled Roger, "the world waggeth well with thee, Giles, these days, but as for me poor Roger lacketh.

I will quote in free translation the following production of the celebrated poet Abd el Rahman el Burai, as a perfect specimen of melancholy Arab imagery: "No exile is the banished to the latter end of earth, The exile is the banished to the coffin and the tomb "He hath claims on the dwellers in the places of their birth Who wandereth the world, for he lacketh him a home.

Yet do his bulging eyes supplicate the wherefore of smocks, and his goodly large ears do twitch for the why of sacks. O impatient Rogerkin, bolt thy food, man, gulp swallow, and ask and importune my lord thyself!" "Not I not I!" quoth Roger, "an my master lacketh for a smock or a sack, for me is no question of wherefore or why, so long as he doth get them!"

Is this man to live for ever? Am I to be baulked of my will? Is the prince to tarry uninstalled, because, forsooth, the realm lacketh an Earl Marshal free of treasonable taint to invest him with his honours? No, by the splendour of God! Warn my Parliament to bring me Norfolk's doom before the sun rise again, else shall they answer for it grievously!" Lord Hertford said

When I could turn my eyes from him upon the earl, I saw that he was waxed as pale as death, and wore his arm in a kerchief, and that there was a great red streak adown his temple, clean through his right eyebrow. And his splendid flanks and chest were hollow, like those of a good steed that lacketh fodder.

For example we read in James i. 5, R. V., “But if any of you lacketh wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all liberally and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” Now that promise is as positive as a promise can be but we read in the following verses, “But let him ask in faith nothing doubting: for he that doubteth is like the surge of the sea driven by the wind and tossed.

What thou doest can no one do to thee again. Lo, there is no requital. He who cannot command himself shall obey. And many a one CAN command himself, but still sorely lacketh self-obedience! Thus wisheth the type of noble souls: they desire to have nothing GRATUITOUSLY, least of all, life.

Now there lacketh nought but they should be wedded straightway; and all is arrayed in the chapel; wherefore if this holy man will come with us and do on his mass-hackle, our joy shall be fulfilled; save that thereafter shall feast and merriment await all you in this hall, and we shall be there to welcome all comers in this house of Greenharbour, whereas this our gracious Lady has long abided so happily."

Oh! virtue, thou art not an empty name! All that life can give thou givest! If much comfort cannot be expected from the friendship of a reformed rake of superior abilities, what is the consequence when he lacketh sense, as well as principles? Verily misery in its most hideous shape.
