The vital instinct of the soul, its heaven-born, up-springing life, flings back the silver veil, and reveals the hidden things to him who hath eyes to see.

The small head slightly bows, the still face scarcely smiles, the slight form disappears, and after all, it was only a fiddle.
So only could the Divine Image, the life of the triune God within the soul, be restored, and the heaven-born Spirit, 'that angel that died in Paradise, be born again to life within us.
To descend out of heaven, that is, out of the church in captivity, 'from God, is this: The church is the place in which God doth beget all those that are the children of him; wherefore in that they are said to descend out of heaven 'from God, it is as if he had said, the children of the church are heaven-born, begotten of God, and brought forth in the church of Christ.
The Pythagorean school, as Waldershare styled Mr. Bertie Tremaine and his following, very much amused Endymion. The heaven-born minister air of the great leader was striking. He never smiled, or at any rate contemptuously.

"You mustn't mind me, seraphine," he added, "I'd a hot night, and I'm warm as a thrush now. But I saw a thing five minutes ago!" he rolled on the stall. "'Sh!" he added in a loud mock whisper, "here he comes now.
Meanwhile, superintended by the mistress, all are occupied with the important duty of preparing the morning meal. It is surprising how skilful are these heaven-born cooks; the excellent dishes they make out of "half-nothing." I preferred the cuisine of Forteune's wives to that of the Plateau, and, after finding that money was current in the village, I never failed to secure their good offices.
This, however, I think will be but a short parenthesis, for I expect that heaven-born hero to return from whence he came, instead of bringing hither all the Mogul's pearls and rubies.
