The site is an ideal one for a lookout, but not well suited for a habitation. Plate LIV shows its character. Cliff outlooks are often found on sites whose restricted areas preclude all possibility that they formed parts of larger settlements since obliterated. The ruin just described is an example. Another instance which occurs in Del Muerto is shown in figure 58.
They spread, conquering and destroying, on the upper Liris, but they neglected to establish themselves permanently in that quarter. I. VII. Relation of Rome to Latium The original equality of the two armies is evident from Liv. i. 52; viii. 8, 14, and Dionys. viii, 15; but most clearly from Polyb. vi. 26.
LIV. On his speaking in the senate, he has been told by one of the members, "I did not understand you," and by another, "I would contradict you, could I do it with safety."
And this phrase is well set down, Is. liv., "Rejoice, O barren, and thou that didst not bear, break forth into singing and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child; for more are the children of the desolate than the married wife."
§ XI. Of those above given, b is the constant chamfer of Venice, and a of Verona: a being the grandest and best, and having a peculiar precision and quaintness of effect about it. LIV., a being from the angle of a house on the Rio San Zulian, and b from the windows of the church of San Stefano. LIV., which is the favorite chamfer at Bourges and Bayeux, and in other good French work.
Let us aim at learning these two great truths: that we can do nothing good without God's grace, yet that we can sin against that grace; and thus that the great gift may be made the cause, on the one hand, of our gaining eternal life, and the occasion to us, on the other, of eternal misery. Isa. liv. 13. John iii. 6. Mark x. 14. 1 Cor. vii. 14. Acts xvi. 15, 33. The Unity of the Church.
Leibnitz tells of an Italian who managed to bear up under the tortures of the rack by never for a moment ceasing to think of the gallows which would have awaited him, had he revealed his secret; he kept on crying out: I see it! I see it! afterwards explaining that this was part of his plan. Liv. I. ch. 2.
How far it is from the epoch when Robert Cenalis, comparing Notre-Dame de Paris to the famous temple of Diana at Ephesus, *so much lauded by the ancient pagans*, which Erostatus *has* immortalized, found the Gallic temple "more excellent in length, breadth, height, and structure."* * Histoire Gallicane, liv. II. Periode III. fo. 130, p. 1.
God hath said to his church, “Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes: for thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left,” Isa. liv. 2, 3. A great increase of the church there was in the apostles’ times, Col. i. 6; but a far greater may be yet looked for, Rom. xi. 12.
'For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but My kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of My peace be removed, saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee. ISAIAH liv, 10. There is something of music in the very sound of these words. The stately march of the grand English translation lends itself with wonderful beauty to the melody of Isaiah's words.
