Delivered at the Ordination of Rev. Charles C. Shackford in the Hawes Place Church, Boston on May 19, 1841 Luke xxi.33. “Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my word shall not pass away.” In this sentence we have a very clear indication that Jesus of Nazareth believed the religion he taught would be eternal, […]

The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin’ Groovy) by Paul Simon

I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud by William Wordsworth
I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o’er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
