I did not even know for many years that all Methodist preachers who are not hypocrites have these recurrent down-sittings before the Lord when they become sorry penguin saints with nerves.
She was already at the foot of the steps. Awful embarrassment seized her seized Evangeline! In the faint, reflected lamplight from within the house she could see the two above her looking down. Mercy gracious! "Sit down, Evangeline." "I'm s-sittin' I think I'm sittin' down." Up-standings and down-sittings were confused in the general dizziness of things. Perhaps she was standing up.
As he grew, and found his feet, and began to wander about the house and the front yard, with a gait in which a funny little swagger was often interrupted by sudden and unpremeditated down-sittings, she was keen to mark all his manly traits. "Regard him, m'sieu'," she would say to me when I dropped in at the cottage on my way home from camp "regard this little brave. Is it not a boy of the finest?
There is something very pathetic in all this these two brothers living in that isolated cabin in the woods, knit together by the ties of kinship, having in common a deep and yearning love for each other, and for the Old Home in the Catskills, their daily down-sittings and up-risings outwardly the same, yet so alienated in what makes up one's real existence.
That Son of God had been with him everywhere, in his down-sittings and his uprisings, as He was with every man and woman on earth. But, like other sinful men and women, he had not seen Him. He had not felt Him. But He was there. And one day he was hoeing in the field and a voice at his side asked: "Why persecutest thou me?"
It keeps the mind healthy to have some interest of the kind outside of one's business. I may take to book-collecting or numismatics or raising orchids. Perhaps I may become an authority on ancient armor; time enough for that by and by. And then I can cut over to Europe every summer if I like, and no one to interfere with my down-sittings or my up-risings, my goings-out or my comings-in.
