 86    2|     copious tears, they prayed to God, who is a kind and ready
 87    2|         them by our prayers, that God may take compassion upon
 88    2|          to the almighty power of God, who governeth the winds
 89    2|           joyfully gave thanks to God, saying, "Now, brethren,
 90    2|         we have been praying, for God will now change the south
 91    2|          to visit Columba, and in God's bounty they looked on

 95    2|    passage, owing to the mercy of God to the blessed man, that
 96    2|       this favour granted them by God be attributed unless to
 97    2|      patience and the goodness of God. But I often return my most
 98    2|           most grateful thanks to God for having, through the
 99    3|       have, under the guidance of God, shortly and concisely related,
100    3|         as one of the prophets of God, and hath been predestined
101    3|          hath been predestined by God to be the leader of innumerable
102    3|      excommunicated a person whom God not only doth not excommunicate,
103    3|        said they in reply, " doth God exalt, as thou sayest, one
104    3|        preceding this same man of God whom you treat with contempt;
105    3|        whom I see foreordained by God to be the leader of his
106    3|         that I am sent to thee by God with the book of glass,
107    3|          upon them by the hand of God, and the hearts of men shall

109    3|            but revealed to him by God, and this he did for two
110    3|       island, until the angels of God, as the saint afterwards
111    3|         day, through the mercy of God and the assistance of his
112    3|         hath managed wisely, with God's help, that the congregation
113    3|         he hath been appointed by God to preside, in the plain
114    3|         of Angels whom the man of God saw carrying to heaven the
115    3|        thy virtues; the angels of God are now carrying thy soul
116    3|            on hearing the word of God preached by the saint, believed
117    3|          not without the leave of God, witnessed with his own
118    3|            and afterwards made by God superior of this Church
119    3|          burning with the love of God, entered the church alone
120    3|          pleasing in the sight of God by keeping thine eyes fixed
121    3|           thou hast sinned before God, and thou didst vainly imagine
122    3|           obtained this favour of God, that, as thou art my disciple,
123    3|          thus obtain the mercy of God." All these things, according
124    3|         because, that thing which God granted me after praying
125    3|        four years, then, which by God's favour my life is yet
126    3|           certain deposit dear to God, hath, after looking down
127    3|          been intrusted to him by God; and after an interval of
128    3|     bosom-inspired, I believe, by God to do so, as each animal
129    3|      example of the holy fathers, God, the Comforter of the good,

132    3|    illustrious patron was held by God, seeing that, while he was
133    3|         yet in this mortal flesh, God was pleased at his prayer
134    3|       high honour in the sight of God our holy and venerable abbot

136    3|     favour hath been conferred by God on this same man of blessed
