If I were to give advice, I would say to parents that they ought to be very careful whom they allow to mix with their children when young; for much mischief thence ensues, and our natural inclinations are unto evil rather than unto good.

He stands before God as our representative 'And the Lord hath made to meet on Him the iniquity of us all.

She is suspected; she is accused; she is branded; there is no general faith in her; yet she will hold the torch to-morrow night: and what ensues?
