Let every man, as he hath purposed in heart, give, not with reluctance or of necessity; for God loveth a cheerful giver.
He sits down to his task with resolution, he approves of what he does in each step of the process, and in each enquires, Is this the thing I purposed to effect? And, as it is with the unfledged schoolboy, after the same manner it is with the man mature.
By the judicious investment of that capital I purposed to get Burbank the nomination on the first ballot at least four hundred and sixty of the nine hundred-odd delegates. In a national convention the delegates are, roughly speaking, about evenly divided among the three sections of the country a third from east of the Alleghanies; a third from the West; a third from the South.

Where one can't crush the other out, they compromise; and the result is again different from what anyone distinctly proposed beforehand. Vaguely and generally, much of what was purposed may be gained; but everything makes strongly for the view that our world is incompletely unified teleologically and is still trying to get its unification better organized.
It is, literally speaking, infinitely improbable that the organs of adaptation we see in a forest, in plant and animal, should have come into existence through chance alone. The organs of adaptation are distinctly and definitely purposive structures not purposed, perhaps, but certainly purposeful.
