Presently another song came from the wood: it was a hymn sung by children's voices, such as one often hears carolled by a troop of little urchins coming home from school. The words fell familiarly on Ida's ears: "Quite through the streets with silver sound, The flood of life doth flow; Upon whose banks on every side The wood of life doth grow.

'How doth the little' and all the rest of it, you know, John. Did you ever learn 'How doth the little, when you went to school, John?" "Not to quite know it," John returned. "I was very near it once. But I should only have spoilt it, I dare say." "Ha, ha!" laughed Dot. She had the blithest little laugh you ever heard. "What a dear old darling of a dunce you are, John, to be sure!"

They are all gone aside, they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doeth good, no, not one. This means that there is not one who doth good in spirit and in truth.
