Stranica 235 - He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God and afflicted.

Stranica 138 - ... are off like lightning. The course is a mile in circumference, and they go round it before the excited crowd can look at them a dozen times. They whirl past the stand, and push on again. Sir Archy leads ; Fair Anna trails on a hard rein ; the Arabian is two lengths behind ; but he is not running. They thunder up the quarter stretch : Sir Archy is bounding, like some diabolical monster, far before his companions, spite of his owner's cries ; the Arabian has come up and locks the mare ; they run...
