Therefore to winged Love she speaks these words: 'Son, who art alone my strength and sovereignty, son, who scornest the mighty father's Typhoïan shafts, to thee I fly for succour, and sue humbly to thy deity. How Aeneas thy brother is driven about all the sea-coasts by bitter Juno's malignity, this thou knowest, and hast often grieved in our grief.
If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it. A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing. For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city, To call passengers who go right on their ways: Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: and as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
When Ruark beheld the marvel of the Jewel, and the redness moving in it as of a panting heart, and the flashing eye of fire that it was, and all its glory, he cried, 'It was indeed a Jewel for queens to covet from the Serpent, and a prize the noblest might risk all to win as a gift for thee. Then she said, 'Thy voice is friendly with me, O Ruark! and thou scornest not the creature that I am.
In noble anger thou art silent thus; Enveloped in thy holy innocence, Thou scornest to refute so base a charge. Still scorn it, maiden, but confide in me; I never doubted of thine innocence. Speak not one word; only extend thy hand In pledge and token that thou wilt confide In my protection and thine own good cause. JOHANNA, DUCHATEL, DUNOIS, afterwards RAIMOND.
To make an end, senor, these are my last words to thee: whether thou wilt, or wilt not, I am thy wife; witness thy words, which must not and ought not to be false, if thou dost pride thyself on that for want of which thou scornest me; witness the pledge which thou didst give me, and witness Heaven, which thou thyself didst call to witness the promise thou hadst made me; and if all this fail, thy own conscience will not fail to lift up its silent voice in the midst of all thy gaiety, and vindicate the truth of what I say and mar thy highest pleasure and enjoyment."
'If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself; and if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it. 'Every man shall bear his own burden. There is no possible transference of moral character or spiritual gifts in that fashion.
'If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself, and if thou scornest, thou alone shall bear it. 'And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said unto David, The Lord also hath put away thy sin. 2 SAMUEL xii. 13. We ought to be very thankful that Scripture never conceals the faults of its noblest men. High among the highest of them stands the poet- king.
'If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself; and if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it. The same imperfection in the analogy applies to the next point in the parable viz. the bankrupt debtor's prayer, 'Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. Easy to promise! I wonder how long it would have taken a penniless bankrupt to scrape together two and a quarter millions of pounds?
"Ay! and I taught thee the word and the spell, To waken me here by the Fairies' Well, But thou hast loved the heron and hawk, More than to seek my haunted walk; And thou hast loved the lance and the sword, More than good text and holy word; And thou hast loved the deer to track, More than the lines and the letters black; And thou art a ranger of moss and of wood, And scornest the nurture of gentle blood."
'I beheaded him! I, and none else, was the murderer. Oh! dear brethren, do you see to it that what you store up in these caves and treasure-cellars of memory which we all carry with us, are deeds that will bear being brought out again and looked at in the pure white light of conscience, and which you will neither be ashamed nor afraid to lay your hand upon and say: 'It is mine; I planted and sowed and worked it, and I am ready to reap the fruit. 'If thou be wise thou shalt be wise for thyself, if thou scornest thou alone shalt bear it. Take care of the storehouses of memory and of conscience, and mind what kind of things you lay up there.
