How shall the ecstasy of light fall back to musics magic gloom ? O China rose without a thorn, O honey-bee with- out a sting ! The scent of all thy beauty burns upon the wind. The deep perfume Of our own love is hidden in our hearts, the invul- nerable ring. No man shall know. I bear thee down unto the tomb, beyond the tomb, Rose on the breast of the world of spring !

…arm people who are doing their will; they only poison people who are cancerous with Origi nal Sin. In Latin countries, where Sin is not taken seriously, and sex-expression is simple, wholesome, and free, drunkenness is a rare accident. It is only in Puritan countries, where self-analysis, under the whip of a coarse bully like Billy Sunday,1 2 brings the hearer to “conviction of sin,” that he hits first the “trail” and then the “booze.” Can you imagine an evangelist in Taormina? It is to laugh. This is why missionaries, in all these centuries, …

220 At the sheriff's door we found the vehicle which was to take us to the wayside station. Rose and I got in, feeling as if we had been through a mangle; but the sense of humour came most opportunely to our rescue. The vehicle chanced to resemble a prison van, and the circumstance tickled our imagination and helped to break down our embarrassment. But it was a frightfully long drive to the wayside station and a frightfully long wait when we got there. I don't know whether it was part of the arrangement or not that we should take tickets to the…

But all we say and do, however casually, adds up to more, far more, than our most strenuous Operations. “Take care of the pence, and the pounds will take care of themselves.” Your daily drippings fill a bigger bucket than your geysers of magical effort. The “ninety and nine that safely lay in the shelter of the fold”1 have no organized will at all; and their character, built of their words and deeds, is only a garbage-heap. 1 [Matthew 18:13, paraphrase.] 2 [Luke 17:21, paraphrase.] Remember, also, that, unless yo…

…ever mind! Peter took the letter. Anything, anything to distract the mind from its boredom! Yet we haven't the energy to do anything: we take whatever comes to us, and clutch at it feebly. “ It’s true,’’ said Cockie, to my amazement, “ and we've got to be able to ¢ell him we've won.”’ There was a long quarrel—as there is over every incident of any sort. That is natural, with this eternal insomnia and sleeping at the wrong time. I hated Peter (and K.L.) the more because I knew all the time he was right. If K.L. is a Devil, it’s up to us to get t…

… They shouid be treated with courtesy, considération, and even affection. They shouid be taught to love and respect their master, and to take pride in being trusted by him. It îs sometimes better to act on the advice of a spirit even when one knows it to be wrong, though in such a case one must take the proper précautions against an undesirable resuit.
