Out of the boatswain's sight he leaned against the deck-house and panted, while he held his hand to his breast. "What is it?" he muttered, wearily; "whisky nerves, or the dying flutter of a starved love. Five years, now and a look from her eyes can stop the blood in my veins can bring back all the heart-hunger and helplessness, that leads a man to insanity or this."
Until Lady Darcy discovered that the only true happiness rose from something deeper than worldly success, there was nothing in store for her but fresh disappointments and heart-hunger; while as for Rosalind, the unfortunate child of such a mother Mrs Asplin looked at the girl as she sat leaning back in her chair, craning her throat, and showing off all her little airs and graces for the benefit of the two admiring schoolboys, gratified vanity and self-love showing on every line of her face.
No one is wholly indifferent to the Spirit. I fear that some ministers do not know and never will know the heart-hunger of the world. When they rise to speak, there is always some one present whose breath is hushed with longing to hear spoken some real word of truth, or strength, or comfort. If he receive but chaff! Theology is not a dry thing, and ought not be made so.
Margaret was then in the first smart of her widowhood. 'Lias was just dead, and she was withering physically and mentally under the heart-hunger of her loss. The arrival of the pallid, half-conscious child David's sister, with David's eyes for a time distracted and appeased her. She nursed the poor waif, and sent word to Needham Farm.
No amount of physical satisfaction will ever allay the heart-hunger, and no flood of Rationalist thinking will ever put an end to the instinctive search after the Unknown God. In spiritual law, as in natural law, nothing is ever lost. We study the physical, and by analogy we may learn much of the spiritual: we have not been left without guidance in the maze of life.
He had no least suspicion as to her constant craving for the expression of affection, her heart-hunger for the murmured words of endearment, her poignant yearning for gentle, tender caresses day by day. They loved; they were safely married: those blessed facts to him were sufficient. There was no need to talk about it. In fact, in his estimation, there was not time.
She told him, keeping him at provoking distance, of her heart-hunger for the outside world, the world of art and things of beauty. She thrilled him with her vibrant voice, mesmerized him with her distant, caressing touch and glorious, limpid eyes.
He don't like to be stared at." "Yes, I see." Keith drew in his breath with a little catch. "An' so she said there wa'n't anybody anywhere that could help so much as you if you would." "Why, of course, if I really could HELP " Susan did not need to look into Keith's face to catch the longing and heart-hunger and dawning hope in the word left suspended on his lips.
He knew now that his wife and the mother of his child had stood outside, as all women but the one must ever stand. Nor did he guess that she had known it from the first and that heart-hunger had hastened her death. Aside from a very deep-seated gratitude to her for his son, Anthony Dexter cherished no emotion for the sake of his dead wife.
By seeking them in their sorrows and sins; by making them feel our true heart-hunger over them, our true love, our entire union with the Christ in His compassion for them. And the same principle will hold good in training those whom we have already won. This was, no doubt, the secret of Paul's great influence with his people. His whole heart was theirs; and they knew it.
