End of the world Quote by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
““Verse 4.—“Unto the end of the world.” Venantius Fortunatus eleven hundred years ago witnesses to the peregrinations of Paul the apostle. He passed the ocean’s curled wave, As far as islands harbours have; As far as Brittain yields a bay, Or Iceland’s frozen shore a stay. John Cragge, 1557.””
