Ah, Eglington, you never knew what love was, you never had a heart experiment, subterfuge, secrecy, 'reaping where you had not sowed, and gathering where you had not strawed. Always, experiment, experiment, experiment! "I shall be gone in a few hours I feel it, but before I go I must try to do right, and to warn you.

‘You are like the servant,’ I replied, ‘who, instead of employing his one talent in his master’s service, restored it to him unimproved, alleging, as an excuse, that he knew him “to be a hard man, reaping where he had not sown, and gathering where he had not strawed.” Of him to whom less is given, less will be required, but our utmost exertions are required of us all.
And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way. And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest. And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
I have made ready the house for thee, and have ordained place for thy camels. And brought him in, and strawed his camels, and gave them chaff and hay, and water to wash the camels' feet, and the men's feet that came with him. And they set forth bread tofore him, which said: I shall not eat till I have done mine errand and said wherefore I am come.
"This was in midst of month of May, When birdis sing on ilka spray, Melland their notes, with seemly soun, For softness of the sweet seasoun.

This fear was therefore evil fear; it was that ungodly fear of God which I have here been speaking of. For I feared thee, or as Matthew hath it, "for I was afraid." Afraid of what? Of Christ, "that he was an hard man, reaping where he sowed not, and gathering where he had not strawed."
There is an old poem written by a monk of Chester, named Bradshaw, in which a large hall decorated with tapestries is described as follows: "All herbs and flowers, fair and sweet, Were strawed in halls, and layd under their feet; Cloths of gold, and arras were hanged on the wall, Depainted with pictures and stories manifold Well wrought and craftely."
'Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: 25. And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth.'-MATT. xxv. 24, 25. That was a strangely insolent excuse for indolence.
But, to be scriptural, she reaped where she had not sowed, and gathered where she had not strawed. If she did not make the man love her, I believe she did, as I believe you would, perhaps unconsciously, do, she used his love, and was therefore better able to make all other men admire her. She was richer in personal power for that experience; but she was not grateful for it nor for his devotion."
