I'd got everything I wanted in my swag, so I'd left the other horse at Willaroon. 'Never mind the settlement, says I to the drover. 'I'll be coming back to the station after I've finished my business in Queensland, and we can make up the account then. The overseer looked rather doubtful. 'This seems rather mixed, says he. 'Blest if I understand it.
"Be she with that goodness blest Which may merit name of best; If she be not such to me, What care I how good she be? "Great or good, or kind or fair, I will ne'er the more despair; If she love me, this believe, I will die ere she shall grieve. "If she slight me when I wooe, I can scorne and let her goe, If she be not fit for me, What care I for whom she be?"
And of His mercy richly abounding to usward we have further proof herein, that, no keenness of mortal vision being able in any degree to penetrate the secret counsels of the Divine mind, it sometimes, perchance, happens, that, in error of judgment, we make one our advocate before His Majesty, who is banished from His presence in eternal exile, and yet He to whom nothing is hidden, having regard rather to the sincerity of our prayers than to our ignorance or the banishment of the intercessor, hears us no less than if the intercessor were in truth one of the blest who enjoy the light of His countenance.
It is a sickness that gives raging pain like a poisoned arrow in an open wound, and devours all that is near it like a fire-brand, and is harder to cure than the disease which is killing that coughing wench. To be possessed by that demon of anguish is to suffer the torture of the damned or else," and her voice sank to softness, "to be more blest than the Gods, happy as they are.
There is something holy in its solitude, making one envy Petrarch the years of calm and unsullied enjoyment which blest him there.
For as the grass, soon as the sun doth rise, Is scorch'd by reason of the heat, and dies; Its flow'r fades, and it retains no more The beauteous comeliness it had before, So fades the rich man, maugre all his store. The man is blest that doth endure temptation For when he's try'd, the crown of God's salvation, The which the Lord hath promised to give To them that love him, that man shall receive.
Had she been blest with a dozen children, she must yet have regarded herself as also a mother to whatever two young gentlemen were lodging under her roof. Childless but for Katie and Clarence, she had for her successive pairs of tenants a truly vast fund of maternal feeling to draw on. Nor were the drafts made in secret.
Stubbles' ability and influence ready and willing to abandon for a time his heavy business cares, and devote himself so heartily to the welfare of the community in which he is living. If all will follow his excellent example, I feel quite confident that the Church work in this parish will be greatly blest.
Like the victors, who, with thunder-lance, On the iron plain of glory dance, Starting from their mistress' breast, From Aurora's rosy bed upsprings God's bright sun, to roam o'er towns of kings, And to make the young world blest! Toward the hero doth this heart still strain? Drink I, eagle, still the fiery rain Of thine eye, that burneth to destroy?
A wise marriage is most assuredly an influence that helps. Every young man who loves his mother, if living, or reveres her memory if dead, must recall with feelings of holy emotion, his own home. Blest, indeed is he, over whom the influence of a good home continues. Home is the first and most important school of character.
