Stronger than any other one influence for good upon Adelaide and Arthur at that critical time, was this object lesson Simeon gave Simeon with his single-hearted sorrow and single-minded love. Arthur, about to issue forth at a quarter to seven on Monday morning to begin work as a cooper's apprentice, felt as if he would find all Saint X lined up to watch him make the journey in working clothes.
"And I for you. Because you are single-hearted, and forgiving to your faulty and tiresome little Sue!" He looked away, for that epicene tenderness of hers was too harrowing.
In addition to the privilege of much accumulated learning, in addition to the advantages of varied scientific research, we must have something else, if we would advance yet farther in true knowledge. We must be imbued with a simple, faithful spirit, not presuming, not preoccupied. We must be willing to sit down at the feet of Truth, humble, patient, docile, single-hearted.

I despatched it yesterday, and these lines with it: "Don Felipe, your single-hearted devotion is met by a blind confidence. Time will show whether this is not to treat a man as more than human." It was a big reward.
When I see him bland and gay amongst us, I feel pretty confident that his greatest pleasure is the same as mine, that of reposing in the society of the innocent, the single-hearted, the unburdened, after having seen what the dark corners of social life are. It is like coming out of a foetid cave into the evening sunshine. Of late, we have felt this in an extraordinary degree.
