      parent's heart goes with him , and much time does not elaps 6 ere the parent himself joins the object of his love . So when the heart is fixed in God , no labour will be spared to visit the city which hath foundations where he displays the glories of his special presence . Is salvation disenthralment from the world ? What but the energy of the "heart I can break the bonds which bind us to £ fte ~ eartlT ^ IJevb"iTF ^ o f E 1 s , we " ~ sHorn ~ o f " olTFitrel ^ HT ^ iidntKe " veriest withes are chains of adamant .

The mind is nothing more than the seed bed of eternity . The fruit which it bears under the nurturing influence of the feelings is the treasure of immortality . Whether there be prophecies , they shall fail ; whether there be knowledge , it shall vanish away . Even faith shall be changed into sight , and hope pass into fruition ; but the love which knowledge , faith , and hope shall have conspired to produce—love the greatest , because the final end of these—love is eternal . ¦ ¦
