"Some sought the flocks of Oedipus, and died
In Cadmus' land, at seven-gated Thebes;
And some, who crossed the open sea in ships,
For fair-haired Helen's sake, were killed at Troy.
These men were covered up in death,
But Zeus the son of Kronos gave the others life
And homes apart from mortals, at Earth's edge.
And there they live a carefree life, beside
The whirling Ocean, on the Blessed Isles."~~~

Psalm 89:3
"I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,"
 
Gal1:6
"I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:"
 
 
"This dwelling, Dunessan by name, was occupied by the family of a redoubtable man in his seventies whose forebears generations earlier had fled into the remote fastnesses of Glen Lyon after being harried and driven from their ancestral lands. A stubborn clan, they had persistently backed the wrong side in wars and had paid the penalty.
The old man was Macnab of Dunessan, patriarchal head of the local branch of the Macnabs, one of the most contentious clans in Scotland. He was a big man, veteran of a dozen Highland battles, and he looked especially formidable when clad in the crimson-green-red tartan of the Macnabs, with dirk and claymore at the ready. He wore white mutton-chop whiskers and a Highland bonnet, and seemed always ready to take up arms for some new battlefield, but recently an old bullet wound in his left leg had begun to impede him, forcing him to stay close to his house, from which he still roared orders to his kinsmen."~~~James A. Michener: TEXAS. Ch.5 The Trace

A Man's A Man For A' That

1795
Type: Song
Tune: For a' that.


Is there for honest Poverty
That hings his head, an' a' that;
The coward slave-we pass him by,
We dare be poor for a' that!
For a' that, an' a' that.
Our toils obscure an' a' that,
The rank is but the guinea's stamp,
The Man's the gowd for a' that.

What though on hamely fare we dine,
Wear hoddin grey, an' a that;
Gie fools their silks, and knaves their wine;
A Man's a Man for a' that:
For a' that, and a' that,
Their tinsel show, an' a' that;
The honest man, tho' e'er sae poor,
Is king o' men for a' that.

Ye see yon birkie, ca'd a lord,
Wha struts, an' stares, an' a' that;
Tho' hundreds worship at his word,
He's but a coof for a' that:
For a' that, an' a' that,
His ribband, star, an' a' that:
The man o' independent mind
He looks an' laughs at a' that.

A prince can mak a belted knight,
A marquis, duke, an' a' that;
But an honest man's abon his might,
Gude faith, he maunna fa' that!
For a' that, an' a' that,
Their dignities an' a' that;
The pith o' sense, an' pride o' worth,
Are higher rank than a' that.

Then let us pray that come it may,
(As come it will for a' that,)
That Sense and Worth, o'er a' the earth,
Shall bear the gree, an' a' that.
For a' that, an' a' that,
It's coming yet for a' that,
That Man to Man, the world o'er,
Shall brothers be for a' that.

 The Salar de Uyuni is located in Bolivia's Altiplano. Despite being remotely located, visiting the salt flats is feasible thanks to the abundance of tours that operate here. Visits can be done as a day trip or a multi-day tour, with lengthier tours venturing further into the remote landscapes up to the Chilean border.

2dicens Domino spes mea et fortitudo mea Deus meus confidam in eum

2 Ich sage zum HERRN: Meine Zuflucht und meine Burg, mein Gott, ich vertraue auf ihn! 

2Je dis à l'Éternel: Mon refuge et ma forteresse, Mon Dieu en qui je me confie!

2 Diré yo a Jehová:«Esperanza mía y castillo mío; mi Dios, en quien confiaré». 

2dico all'Eterno: «Tu sei il mio rifugio e la mia fortezza, il mio DIO, in cui confido». 

2(90-2) говорит Господу: 'прибежище мое и защита моя, Бог мой, на Которого я уповаю!'

 2Direi do Senhor: Ele é o meu refúgio e a minha fortaleza, o meu Deus, em quem confio. 

2zice despre Domnul: El este locul meu de scăpare, şi cetăţuia mea, Dumnezeul meu în care mă încred!``Ps.91
