On the opposite side of the tower is the magnificent Abraham's sacrifice from the same strong hand, and by it Habakkuk, who is no less near life than the Jeremiah and Job, but a very different type. At both Or San Michele and the Bargello we are to find Donatello perhaps in a finer mood than here, and comfortably visible.
Ryan, the cultivated young lawyer, took down his handsome Bible from the shelf of unused books as soon as he had reached his office, dusted it carefully, and turned over the leaves to discover something about Habakkuk. As for Tode, he literally poured over his three leaves.
While I live I am and will be called Habakkuk Gilfillan, who will stand up for the standards of doctrine agreed on by the ance famous Kirk of Scotland, before she trafficked with the accursed Achan, while he has a plack in his purse or a drap o' bluid in his body. 'Ah, said the pedlar, 'I have seen your land about Mauchlin. A fertile spot! your lines have fallen in pleasant places!
I stopped, and saw an announcement that a missionary meeting was to be held forthwith, and that the native missionary, the Rev. After some little difficulty I obtained admission, and heard two or three speeches, which were prefatory to the introduction of Mr. Habakkuk. One of these struck me as perhaps the most presumptuous that I had ever heard. The speaker said that the races of whom Mr.
Now as from force of long habit he peered out of the doorway before making his exit; he looked like one of the John Sargent's prophets gone a little madder than usual a Jeremiah or a Habakkuk. "Hello, Doc!" called Murtha in hearty, friendly tones. "Hie spy! Come on out!" "Oh, how d'ye do, captain!" responded Doc. "How are you? I was just interviewing my solicitor." "Sorry," said Murtha.
Over these mysterious figures was written, in large letters, The Templeton Coffee-house, and Travellers Hotel, and beneath them, By Habakkuk Foote and Joshua Knapp. This was a fearful rival to the Bold Dragoon, as our readers will the more readily perceive when we add that the same sonorous names were to be seen over a newly erected store in the village, a hatters shop, and the gates of a tan-yard.
And with peculiar satisfaction would he utter those heroic words in Habakkuk, which he found armour of proof against every fear and every contingency: "Though the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meal; the flocks shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls; yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation."
"The amount of property shipwrecked is almost incredible. The man was never intoxicated in his life, and yet it may be truthfully said of him that he has let rum swallow all his millions. I tell you, Mallery, you and Habakkuk were undoubtedly correct." Theodore turned and walked soberly and wearily away. He had not the heart just then to smile over the memory of anything.
Now, there was in Jewry a prophet called Habakkuk who made pottage and broken bread to take to the reapers in the field. An Angel of the Lord said unto Habakkuk: Go, carry the dinner that thou hast into Babylon unto Daniel, who is in the lions' den. And Habakkuk said: Lord, I never saw Babylon; neither do I know where the den is.
But John Gudyill, and Hugh Harrison, and Miles Bellenden, we will restrain with fetters of iron, even as they, in times bypast, have done to the martyred saints." "Who talks of safe conduct and of peace?" said a shrill, broken, and overstrained voice, from the crowd. "Peace, brother Habakkuk," said Macbriar, in a soothing tone, to the speaker.
