The rich think so much of these things, not because they are useful, but because they are beyond the reach of the poor. Nolo habere bona, nisi quibus populus inviderit. What will become of your pupils if you let them acquire this foolish prejudice, if you share it yourself? If, for instance, they see you show more politeness in a jeweller's shop than in a locksmith's.

"Sane dicerentur si res corporales nil nisi materiale continerent, verissime in fluxu consistere, neque habere substantiale quicquam, quemadmodum et Platonici olim recte agnovere."

Certainly if miracles be the command over nature, they appear most in adversity. Vere magnum habere fragilitatem hominis, securitatem Dei. This would have done better in poesy, where transcendences are more allowed. But to speak in a mean. The virtue of prosperity, is temperance; the virtue of adversity, is fortitude; which in morals is the more heroical virtue.

Possessio autem significat habere et tenere objectum, eo modo, quo natum est haberi et genera. Jam vero, quia Deus non aliter potest a nobis haberi et teneri quam per visionem, ideo fit, ut visio sortiatur nomen et officium possessionis respectu Dei. Becanus, de Beat. quæst. 3. But this is not yet all.

Bernard expressly declares 'Totum nos habere voluit per Mariam." The monk paused anew, and added, "However, the rosary enrages fools, and that is a sure sign. You will for a penance recite ten every day for a month." He ceased, and then went on again, slowly,

Emeline's Letters, p. 313. "A regular Abbot of a Monastery in Italy, talking with me said 'Melius est habere nullam quam aliquem It is better to have none than any woman. I asked him what he meant; he replied, 'Because, when a person is not tied to one, he may make use of many; and his practice was conformable to his doctrine; for he slept in the same bed with three young women every night.

'Tis a doctrine ruinous to all government, and much more hurtful than ingenious and subtle, which persuades the people that a religious belief is alone sufficient, and without conduct, to satisfy the divine justice. Use demonstrates to us a vast distinction betwixt devotion and conscience. I have a favourable aspect, both in form and in interpretation: "Quid dixi, habere me? imo habui, Chreme."

A general makes sometimes a fortunate mistake which brings about the winning of a great battle; and do they not sing on the eve of Easter, in the churches of the Roman rite: O certe necessarium Adae peccatum, quod Christi morte deletum est! O felix culpa, quae talem ac tantum meruit habere Redemptorem!

Francis had sung in a wild rhapsody, a sort of mystic dance, a kind of furious malagueña of divine love; and that he who would wish to know God, let him love "Qui vult habere notitiam Dei, amet," had been written by Hugo of St. Victor, one of the subtlest of all the mystics.
