There is no sin, no sorrow, no sickness where I am going. Nothing but peace and joy and the sight of God in that better land where the blessed are expecting me. I must not see you weep. I will not have you grieve. Rejoice with your child; for I see them even now, my holy advocates, St. Anthony and St. Vauplerius. They are coming to fetch me away. Dearest mother, I will pray for you.

Memorable it was, in that it became the starting-point of a new career to Elizabeth Gurney. The seven sisters of the Earlham household all sat together during that eventful morning, in a row, under the gallery. Elizabeth was restless as a rule when at meeting, but something in the tone of William Savery's voice arrested her attention, and before he had proceeded very far she began to weep.

Is there something worse? Tell me the truth." Selva took her hands and pressed them in silence, while the violoncello answered for him, bitterly and sadly: "Weep, weep, for there is no fate like thy fate of love and of grief." He pressed the poor icy hands, unable to speak. He saw clearly di Leynì had not dared to repeat the terrible words to her "I will come and die in your house."

Or perhaps she would be just the opposite: a light-hearted, gay, sprightly bird, who would find herself at home in every position. If only to-day were cheerful, she would not weep for yesterday, or be anxious for the morrow. Care would be taken to clip the wings of her good humor: a far greater triumph would it be to make a weeping face of a smiling one.

"That is what I say to myself, father, but my husband unites with his kindness such a communicative gayety he has such a graceful and natural way of excusing his impiety that I laugh in spite of myself when I ought to weep. It seems to me that a cloud comes between myself and my duties, and my scruples evaporate beneath the charm of his presence and his wit.

But, when he got to the Tower Wharf on his way back to his prison, and his favourite daughter, MARGARET ROPER, a very good woman, rushed through the guards again and again, to kiss him and to weep upon his neck, he was overcome at last. He soon recovered, and never more showed any feeling but cheerfulness and courage.

The onion in its satin wrappings is among the most beautiful of vegetables; and it is the only one that represents the essence of things. It can almost be said to have a soul. If there is any one thing on this fallen earth that the angels in heaven weep over more than another, it is the onion.

Then Jonah prayed unto learn a weighty lesson. For sinful as he is, Jonah does not weep and wail for direct deliverance. He feels that his dreadful punishment is just. He leaves all his deliverance to God, contenting himself with this, that spite of all his pains and pangs, he will still look towards His holy temple.

The surprising horror had reduced everyone to soberness: all tipsiness, all winy drowsiness, had passed away. "Lorand, Lorand," sobbed mother, pressing him frantically to her breast, while grandmother, unable to speak or to weep, clutched his hand. "Oh Lorand, dear...." But Lorand grasped the two ladies' hands and led them towards me. "It is him you must embrace, not me: his is the triumph."

Night, with all thy stars look down Darkness, weep thy holiest dew! Never smiled the inconstant moon On a pair so true. Let eyes not see their own delight; Haste, swift Hour, and thy flight Oft renew. Fairies, sprites, and angels, keep her! Holy stars, permit no wrong! And return to wake the sleeper, Dawn, ere it be long. O joy! O fear! what will be done In the absence of the sun! Come along!
