Nor is there any other foundation for any, nor other name by which any can be saved, but the name of Jesus. But how this foundation is presented, and how this name of Jesus is notified unto them, amongst whom there is no Gospel preached, no Church established, I am not curious in inquiring. I know that God can be as merciful as those tender Fathers present him to be; and I would be as charitable as they are.

To Homer, the dawn was "rosy-fingered"; to Shakespeare, it was "in russet mantle clad"; to Housman, "the ship of sunrise burning". The scientist can explain exactly why the sky looks as it does in the early morning, the physiologist why we perceive as we do. Yet no one suggests that there is no dawn at all, or that its appearance has changed over the centuries, or that any one of these percipients was mad or deceitful. Why should our knowledge of the Creator be less capable of variety and development than our knowledge of any aspect of Creation?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6294</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Day's lustrous eyes grow heavy in sweet death. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14262]]></link><description><![CDATA[Day's lustrous eyes grow heavy in sweet death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14262</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With this new technology, we are able to detect openings in the forest canopy down to just one or two ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36180]]></link><description><![CDATA[With this new technology, we are able to detect openings in the forest canopy down to just one or two individual trees.
