The feast is for those who come back penitently, and are received forgivingly, and endowed richly by the Father in heaven. ... Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: 23. And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it.... LUKE XV. 22, 23.

He reflected forgivingly that Rose Euclid and her friends had perhaps not displayed an abnormal fatuity in discussing the name of the theatre before they had got the lease of the site for it.
