Allston, and was anxious to know who was the fortunate purchaser of the painting of the 'Angel Uriel, which had won the prize at the exhibition of the Royal Academy. He was told that it was not sold. 'Where is it to be found? 'In this very room, said Allston, producing a painting from a corner and wiping off the dust.
Dan, the tribe "from which emanated dark sin," stood at the left side of the camp with his standard, corresponding to the angel Uriel, "God is my light," for God illuminated the darkness of sin by the revelation of the Torah, in the study of which this angel instructed Moses, and devotion to which is penance for sin.
"Seriously, though," said Henderson, "Uriel must be asleep, or he wouldn't let his little brother get under Belial's wings." In fact, Wilton was forced to keep on the mask much longer than he had ever meant to do. He could find no joint in Charlie's armour. The boy was so thoroughly manly, so simple-hearted, so trustful and innocent, that Wilton could make nothing of him.
"However, the God of Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps, and I rejoice to have chanced upon thee, were it only to be guided back to my lodgings amid this water labyrinth." On the way, Uriel gave what answers he could to the old man's questionings.
"How meanest thou?" said the astrologer, hastily. "Thou dost not suppose that alchymy, which is the servant of the heavenly host, is their opponent?" "Nay," answered the disciple, "but you allow that we may be enabled to ward off evils, and to cure diseases, otherwise fatal to us, by the gift of Uriel and the charm of the Cabala?"

After the meal and the good wine that alone had not had its cobwebs brushed shamefacedly away, Dom Diego fell conveniently asleep, looking so worn and old when the light of his lively fancy had died out of his face, that the speech of Uriel and Ianthe took a tenderer tone for fear of disturbing him.
The following is Charles Lamb's letter to Mr. 1st. Whether God loves a lying angel better than a true man? 2nd. Whether the archangel Uriel could affirm an untruth, and if he could, whether he would? 3rd. Whether honesty be an angelic virtue, or not rather to be reckoned among those qualities which the school-men term 'Virtutes minus splendidae'? 4th.
Luke's. Depend upon it, such men were never sent by Providence to rule or to regulate mankind. Whoo! Bounteous Providence that always looks at the body clothes and the parents' equipage before it picks out the proper soul for the baby! Ho! the Duchess of Manchester is in labour: quick, Raphael, or Uriel, bring a soul out of the Numa bin, a young Lycurgus.
