Which fourteen hundred years ago were nailed
For our advantage on the bitter cross.”

“... there are no chains so galling as the chains of ignorance—no fetters so binding as those that bind the soul, and exclude it from the vast field of useful and scientific knowledge. O, had I received the advantages of early education, my ideas would, ere now, have expanded far and wide; but, alas! I possess nothing but moral capability—no teachings but the teachings of the Holy Spirit.”
—Maria Stewart (1803–1879)

“O happy, happy each
man whom predestined fate
leads to the holy rite
of hill and mountain worship.”
