We testify that that which wakened thee was not their cry but the promptings of thine own passions, for We tested thee, and found thee wanting.
Thou art, verily, the Ever-Forgiving, the Most Merciful. Lauded be Thy name, O my God! I testify that no thought of Thee, howsoever wondrous, can ever ascend into the heaven of Thy knowledge, and no praise of Thee, no matter how transcendent, can soar up to the atmosphere of Thy wisdom.

These words are so hackneyed that verily I blush to write them.
I went to Kitson's home, where they knew as little as I did of his death, and verily his place had closed up behind him, so that I scarce think his mother even cared to see him more, and the whole of them seemed more concerned at his amity with Trenton than proud of his feats of arms.
This is a subject of great importance. There are innumerable proofs in support of it. I hope we may continue it at another time. Before we leave, I desire to offer a prayer in behalf of Miss Farmer; for, verily, she has been the founder of this organization, the source of this loving fellowship and assemblage. O Thou kind God! Encircle these servants with the glances of Thy providence.
Number us, we implore Thee, with them who have stood fast in Thy Cause until their souls finally winged their flight unto the heaven of Thy grace and the atmosphere of Thy loving-kindness. Thou art, verily, the Ever-Forgiving, the Most Merciful. Glory be to Thee, O my God!
Verily, with thy Lord is the knowledge of the former and latter generations. 30 Would that thou wert present before Our throne to hear from the Tongue of Grandeur itself that which thou desirest and scale the loftiest heights of knowledge by the grace of Him Who is the All-Knowing, the All-Wise! The ungodly, however, have intervened between us. Take heed lest thou be grieved thereby.
