Wycliffe And The Lollards PDF Download

Excerpt from Wycliffe and the Lollards Great movements do not come as a rule unheralded. Long before the tempest bursts upon us in all its rage and fury, the fierce drift of the torn clouds and the heavy roll and swell of the ocean billows, as they fumble in shorewards, have given us notice and warning. There are beautiful spring days in February, when the sky is blue and clear and the air is soft and balmy, - weeks before the advent of spring, but of which they are the earnest and the promise. As dean Alford puts it: Spring should be dressed in emblem quaint and shy; A troop of rosy girls escaped from bed, For very wantonness of play, should tread The garden paths; one tucks her night-robe high The dewy freshness of the lawn to try; Some have been bolder, and unclothed and bright The group is seen in the moon's mellow light; Some, scattered, gaze upon the trees and sky.
