“An old French sentence says, God works in moments,MEn peu dheure Dieu labeure. We ask for long life, but t is deep life, or grand moments, that signify. Let the measure of time be spiritual, not mechanical.”

“What bird so sings, yet so does wail?
O, tis the ravished nightingale!
Jug, jug, jug, jug, tereu, she cries,
And still her woes at midnight rise.
Brave prick-song! who ist now we hear?
None but the lark so shrill and clear;”
