I have a general invite from that lady to spend any holidays I have to dispose of at Rosebud Cottage. It is not more than two miles from where we stand." "D'ye think she'd extend her invite to me," asked Phil dubiously. "Think!" exclaimed Pax, "I am sure of it. Why, that respectable old lady owns a heart that might have been enshrined in a casket of beauty. She's a trump a regular brick."
"Mother is just mother," she had said in her baby way, and that sentence spelled all the devotion and admiration of a pure little heart for one enshrined within it. And now mother had fallen short. Mother had disappointed that desperately loving, intense soul. The tears started to her eyes.
A very beautiful piece of architecture decorated the choir, the "repository," as it was called, in which the body of Christ was figuratively enshrined. This much- admired work rested upon a single column, but rose, arch upon arch, pillar upon pillar, to the height of three hundred feet, till quite lost in the vault above.

He was the herald of his nation's liberty braving persecution, exile, and death, for the love of it. He was always the most national of the Italian poets, the most loved, the most read.

They were held in captivity, though, at first, treated with all the consideration which became their birth. This revolution was accepted by the people with the loudest demonstrations of joy. The memory of Peter the Great was enshrined in every heart, and all exulted in placing the crown upon his daughter's brow.

Nay, whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth is a direct evidence of the revelation within it of the attributes and names of God, inasmuch as within every atom are enshrined the signs that bear eloquent testimony to the revelation of that most great Light. Methinks, but for the potency of that revelation, no being could ever exist.
