Pagina 76 - Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance ; they had the likeness of a man.
Pagina 236 - Bowed by the weight of centuries he leans Upon his hoe and gazes on the ground, The emptiness of ages in his face, And on his back the burden of the world.
Pagina 76 - As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side : and they four had the face of an ox on the left side ; they four also had the face of an eagle.
