Shall the soul be thought now to have lost its assurance? Not at all. It had before assurance with joy, triumph, and exultation; it hath it now, or may have, with wrestling, cries, tears, and supplications. And a man's assurance may be as good, as true, when he lies on the earth with a sense of sin, as when he is carried up to the third heaven with a sense of love and foretaste of glory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7106</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who gather round, and wonder at the tale Of horrid apparition, tall and ghastly,  That walks at dead of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2776]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who gather round, and wonder at the tale Of horrid apparition, tall and ghastly,  That walks at dead of night, or takes his stand   O'er some new-open'd grave; and, (strange to tell!)    Evanishes at crowing of the cock.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2776</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hark, the world so loud, And they, the movers of the world, so still! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4543]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hark, the world so loud, And they, the movers of the world, so still!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4543</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't care who you are, you're going to choke in certain matches.
