Look into the tiles

I was hiding in the Central Library from the downpour this afternoon. They have these nineteen century tiles as decoration in one of the corridors, they used to form a frieze around the newsroom, but were removed in 1950s. I'm guessing it became less popular to display biblical quotations in public places at around that time.

Amazing details are what really caught my eye, little castles and anchors symbolising a city stretched between the castle and the docks, so I didn't even try to capture a full quote.
