Page 588 - Truly shape and fashion these ; Leave no yawning gaps between ; Think not, because no man sees, Such things will remain unseen. In the elder days of Art, Builders wrought with greatest care Each minute and unseen part ; For the Gods see everywhere. Let us do our work as well, Both the unseen and the seen ; Make the house, where Gods may dwell, Beautiful, entire, and clean.
Page 397 - Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save ; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear : but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

(6) Where there has been a marked destructive process in the kidneys, as a result of a nephritis, the operation may relieve them for a number of weeks or months, but they generally fail again and die when the new capsule begins to contract.
Page 196 - ... above the opening. A word about probing a fistula: Probing at times other than when operating is objectionable and dangerous, because it is painful and may produce new channels, and besides affords no information but what is gained from careful inspection and palpation.

Page 253 - I know the night is near at hand : The mists lie low on hill and bay, The Autumn sheaves are dewless, dry ; But I have had the day. Yes, I have had, dear Lord, the day; When at thy call I have the night, Brief be the twilight as I pass From light to dark, from dark to light.
Page 661 - If we compare from a social point of view the importance of gonorrhea with that of syphilis, gonorrhea is to syphilis as 100 is to one, not only from the standpoint of the number of persons attacked, but also from the standpoint of the gravity of the lesions and their perpetuity.
