Page 60 - Isocolon ° the figure comprised of cola (discussed above) * which consist of a virtually equal number of syllables. To effect the isocolon we shall not count the syllables — for that is surely childish — but experience and practice will bring such a facility that by a sort of instinct we can produce again a colon of equal length to the one before it, as follows : " The father was meeting death in battle ; the son was planning marriage at his home. These omens wrought grievous disasters.

Page 30 - Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Page 69 - Through jealousy and strife Paul showed the way to the prize of endurance; seven times he was in bonds, he was exiled, he was stoned, he was a herald both in the East and in the West, he gained the noble fame of his faith, he taught righteousness to all the world, and when he had reached the limits of the West he gave his testimony before the rulers, and thus passed from the world and was taken up into the Holy Place, — the greatest example of endurance.
