Chapter X: Part 10

Text size

Sun, thou hast betrayed me, 155

Support me, let not my brave soldiers see me drop, 310

Tay hip! 145

Take care of poor mistress, 154

Take care of Maria, 294

"Taught, half by reason, half by mere decay," 203

Tell Collingwood to bring the fleet to anchor, 207

Tell Emerson that I love and revere him, 270

Tell Hill he must come up, 162

Tell them to go forward and do a good work, 73

Texas! Texas! Margaret, 137

Thank God, I have done my duty, 207

Thank God! Thank Heaven! 197

Thank God, to-morrow I shall join the glorious company above, 87

Thank you, my child, 31

Thanks be to God, 73

That is enough to last till I get to heaven, 295

That's right, Brother Taylor; parry them off as well as you can, 258

That which I said then I said, but that which I say now is true, 315

Then I am safe, 71

There are six guineas for you, and do not hack me, 251

"There is another and a better world," 219

There is but one book; bring me the Bible, 252

There is no other life but the eternal, 44

There is no time to be lost, 77

There's nothing to beat that, Hugh, 87

There is nothing solid but religious ideas, 243

These passages may be found on the following pages, 221

They will come off better after, 216

Think more of death than of me, 14

This block will be my pillow, 265

This day let me see the Lord Jesus, 153

This is a beautiful world, 101

This is a sharp medicine, but a sure remedy, 233

This is a struggle which all men must go through, 313

This is death, 316

This is not my home, 16

This is the toilette of death, 68

This soul in flames I offer, Christ, to thee, 153

This unworthy right hand, 70

Those are the spirits of my little girls, 109

Thou dog, 203

Thou hast conquered, O Galilean! thou hast conquered! 155

Thou hast said truly, consummatum est, 27

Thou knowest, O Lord, the secrets of our hearts, 158

Thou, Lord, bruisest me; but I am abundantly satisfied, 53

Throw a quilt over it, 105

Throw up the window that I may see once more, 244

Thy creatures, O Lord, have been my books, 19

"Thy kingdom come, thy will be done," 65

Tired--very tired--a long journey--to take, 124

To be like Christ is to be a Christian, 223

To judge by what I now endure, the hand of death, 243

To sleep--to die, 305

Toffro il tuo proprio Figlio, 192

Trotter will tell you, 101

Trust in God and you need not fear, 89

Under the feet of my friars, 85

Ungrateful traitors! 187

Useless! Useless! 39

Very little meat for the mustard, 134

Vex me not with this thing, but give me a simple cross, 55

Vos plaudite, 19

Wally, what is this? It is death, my boy, 112

Water, 116

Water, 283

We are all going to heaven, and Vandyke is of the company, 106

We are ready--soldiers, fire! 78

We part to meet again, I hope, in endless joy, 137

We return no more, 242

We shall not lose our lives in this fire, 214

We shall then desire nothing, 42

We will endeavor to crawl to this line, 136

We will go to Jerusalem, 171

Weep not for me, 6

Weep not for me, but for yourselves, 48

Welcome the Cross of Christ, welcome everlasting life, 246

Well! God's will be done. He knows best, 289

Well, ladies, if I were one hour in heaven, 186

Well, my friend, what news from the Great Mogul? 201

Well, my God, I consent with all my heart, 171

Were the Church of Christ what she should be, 53

Were you at Sedan? 206

What an idle piece of ceremony, 43

What! art thou, too, one of them! Thou, my son! 52

What can it signify? 70

What I cannot utter with my mouth, 232

What is that? 268

When I am dead, my children, 74

When I think of the existence which shall commence, 55

When nature has abandoned an unhappy victim, 192

While there is life, there is will, 44

Who is near me? 64

Why, certainly, certainly! 274

Why dost thou not strike? Strike! 233

Why weep ye? Did you think that I could live forever? 271

Will no one have pity on me? Here, fire here! 288

Will you tell the archdeacon? 9

With all my heart: I would fain be reconciled to my stomach, 98

Whose house is this? What street are we in? 47

Wonderful, wonderful, this death, 98

Worst is I cannot see, The, 273

Write the word "Remorse"; show it to me, 234

Yes! 102

Yes! 176

Yes, it would be rash to say that they have no reasons, 56

Yes, yes, sing that for me, 288

Yes, comme un damne, 273

Yet I was once your emperor, 293

You are fighting for an earthly crown, 107

You are good fellows, but you can do nothing for me, 23

You make me drink. Pray leave me quiet, 62

You may go home, the show is over, 79

You need not be anxious concerning to-night, 58

You see what is man's life, 110

You will show my head to the people, 77

Young man, keep your record--, 115

Young man, you have heard no doubt, how great are the terrors, 22
