It is the whole burden of my message. What other message is there, to men's souls? 'Repent, and receive the remission of your sins! Build your city of refuge, Mr. Kirkbright, and show them a beginning of the fulfillment." Whist and euchre tables not far off were breaking up, just before lunch, with laughter and raised voices. Ladies were coming down from the deck. In the stir, Mr.
Miss Kirkbright did not usually come to the service; the school, in which she taught, met in the afternoon; but this was Mr. Vireo's first Sunday, and his friend, her brother Christopher, had just come home with him across the Atlantic.
"How Hazel would rejoice in this place! It is a place to set any one dreaming, I think; because, perhaps, as Miss Kirkbright said, the man was in a dream when he planned it." "I mean to try if one dream cannot be lived," said Christopher Kirkbright. "At any rate, let us have the vision out, while we are about it!
Vireo rose and went away. Christopher Kirkbright carried his Bible back into his state-room, and shut the door. That same September morning, Miss Euphrasia, sitting in her pretty corner room at Mrs. Georgeson's, just returned to her city life from the rest and sweetness of a country summer, had letters brought to her door.
Will you, Desire Ledwith, take Christopher Kirkbright to be your wedded husband; will you, Christopher Kirkbright, take Desire Ledwith to be your wedded wife; and do you thereto mutually make your vows in the sight of God and before this company?" And they answered together, "We do." It was a promise for more than each other; it was a life-consecration.
Dakie Thayne makes things yield of themselves as far as they will; he brings capacity and character to bear upon his ends as well as money; he knows his money would not last forever if he did not. Mr. Sherrett and Rodney stayed at Hill-hope over the Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Kirkbright arrived on Saturday morning.
Kirkbright and Miss Ledwith followed her; Miss Euphrasia went right into Mrs. Argenter's room, after she had taken off her waterproof in the hall. As she came in at the door, a great flash of sunshine streamed from under the western clouds, in at the parlor window, followed her across the hall and enveloped her in light as she entered. "Why, the storm's over!" cried Sylvie, joyfully.
"I know very well that I could not earn, beyond my own board, more than the difference between that and the ten dollars she would have to pay anywhere else," she said, simply. And Miss Kirkbright as simply told Desire, privately, to let it be so. "If you don't need the pay, she needs the payment," she said. Desire quietly put it all aside, as she received it.
We shall only thank God that He has kept in the world the records of his talk with men; and the more we talk with Him ourselves, the deeper we shall understand their speech." "Isn't all that about 'inner meanings, that words in the Bible stand for, Swedenborgian, Miss Kirkbright?" "Well?" Miss Kirkbright smiled. "Are you a Swedenborgian?" Sylvie asked the question timidly.
But the details of the plan at Brickfields would make a long story within a story; we may have further glimpses of it, on beyond; we must not leave our friends now standing in the street. Mr. Kirkbright held out his hand to Desire, as he stopped to speak with her. "I am going down to Vireo's," he said. "I have come to a place in my work where I want him." "So have I," said Desire.
