In another hour, the brothers had turned their backs on the town. "I'll carry thee In sorrow's arms to welcome Misery." HEYWOOD's Duchess of Sufolk. "Who's here besides foul weather?" SHAKSPEARE Lear. The sun was as bright and the sky as calm during the journey of the orphans as in the last.
"While life's dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread, Be Thou my guide; Bid darkness turn to day, Wipe sorrow's tears away, Nor let me ever stray From Thee aside. "When ends life's transient dream, When death's cold, sullen stream Shall o'er me roll; Blest Saviour, then, in love, Fear and distrust remove; Oh, bear me safe above, A ransomed soul!"
In the darkness, as the moon stole away and her chamber window blackened, she sounded all sorrow's wide and solemn diapason; and the living sank into shadows before her mind's accentuated and vivid picture of the dead. Future life loomed along one desolate pathway that led to pain and shame and griefs as yet untasted.
O ye loved ones, that already sleep in the noiseless Bed of Rest, whom in life I could only weep for and never help; and ye, who wide-scattered still toil lonely in the monster-bearing Desert, dyeing the flinty ground with your blood, yet a little while, and we shall all meet THERE, and our Mother's bosom will screen us all; and Oppression's harness, and Sorrow's fire-whip, and all the Gehenna Bailiffs that patrol and inhabit ever-vexed Time, cannot thenceforth harm us any more!"
It is, verily, "sorrow's crown of sorrow," Let us rather "hold fast our confidence, which hath a great reward." Like the family in Bethany, you too, I shall suppose, are visited with a sudden and "mysterious" bereavement.
There have been great men who were joyous and they bore their part very bravely on earth; but the greatest of all have gained their strength in Sorrow's service. It matters not which of the kings amongst men we choose, we find that his kingship was only gained and kept after he had passed through the school of grief.
"O, happy days of hope and rest Shall dawn on sorrow's dreary night, Though grief may be an evening guest, Yet joy shall come with morning light! The light of smiles shall beam again, From lids that now o'erflow with tears, And weary hours of woe and pain, Are earnests of serener years."
Recluse as he was, he moreover had his experiences of life and drank deeply of sorrow's cup, as we see in "In Memoriam," that noble tribute to his youthful friend, Arthur Hallam, with its grand hymnal qualities and powerful and reverent lessons for an age shifting in its beliefs and unconfirmed in its faith.
In the same way the five-fold breaths are acquired by it, viz., Prana, Apana, Vyana, Udana, and Samana, which contribute to keep the body agoing. It increases with the idea of Self. He that is conversant with sorrow's end attains to Emancipation. Both the origin and the destruction of the senses rest in the attribute of Passion.
"That sorrow's crown of sorrow Is remembering happier things." But the very light that cheered revealed more clearly the misery, dirt, and poverty around.
