˹éÒ 365 - And surely your blood of your lives will I require ; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man ; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man. Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed : for in the image of God made he man.
˹éÒ 48 - Thy riches, and thy fairs, thy merchandise, thy mariners, and thy pilots, thy calkers, and the occupiers of thy merchandise, and all thy men of war, that are in thee, and in all thy company which is in the midst of thee, shall fall into the midst of the seas in the day of thy ruin.

The old eunuch came to Mr. Barrow for information, but when he learned that the fine elevated box...
˹éÒ 507 - And every oblation of thy meat offering shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meat offering: with all thine offerings thou shalt offer salt.
˹éÒ 362 - It is true your majesty has committed a number of errors, and it has been the painful duty of our employment to take notice of them ; a duty which further obliges us to inform posterity of the conversation which your majesty has this day, very improperly, held with us.
˹éÒ 165 - They even seemed not to know that such an accident had happened, nor could the shrieks of the boys, floating on pieces of the wreck, attract their attention. One fellow was observed very busily employed in picking up, with his boat-hook, the hat of a drowning man. It was in vain we endeavoured to prevail on the people of our vessel to heave to and send the boat to their assistance. It is true, we were then going at the rate of seven miles an hour, which was the plea they made for not stopping.
˹éÒ 128 - Emperor delivered to me yesterday for the king. " It would be an endless task were I to attempt a detail of all the wonders of this charming place.
