«For now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not the LORD; what then should a king do to us? / They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: thus judgment springeth up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.»
«If my land cry against me, or that the furrows likewise thereof complain; / If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the owners thereof to lose their life: / Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.»
«There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers: and, behold, this vine did bend her roots toward him, and shot forth her branches toward him, that he might water it by the furrows of her plantation.»
«Is there iniquity in Gilead? surely they are vanity: they sacrifice bullocks in Gilgal; yea, their altars are as heaps in the furrows of the fields.»
«It is in my desire that I should chastise them; and the people shall be gathered against them, when they shall bind themselves in their two furrows.»
«Come, my friends,'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.Push off, and sitting well in order smiteThe sounding furrows; for my purpose holdsTo sail beyond the sunset, and the bathsOf all the western stars, until I die.»
«All these things have you said of beauty. Yet in truth you spoke not of her but of needs unsatisfied, And beauty is not a need but an ecstasy. It is not a mouth thirsting nor an empty hand stretched forth, But rather a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted. It is not the image you would see nor the song you would hear, But rather an image you see though you close your eyes and a song you hear though you shut your ears. It is not the sap within the furrowed bark, nor a wing attached to a claw, But rather a garden for ever in bloom and a flock of angels for ever in flight. People of Orphalese, beauty is life when life unveils her holy face. But you are life and you are the veil. Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror. But you are eternity and your are the mirror.»
