Welcome affliction that subdues us to his will! In the transports of holy affection, Hagar addressed Jehovah by a phrase, importing "Thou, God, seest me;" and intimated the unexpected but welcome nature of the discoveries she had made, and of that influence which drew her after God in faith, and hope, and love: "Have I also here looked after him that seeth me?"
Love, the great, the strong, the conquering god Love that subdues a world, and rides roughshod over principle, virtue, tradidion, over home, kindred, and religion what cares he for the easy conquest of the pathetic being, who appeals to his sympathy? Love means equality the same height of heroism or of sin.
Your super-animal, your supreme-stag subdues the other stags, but he never conquers himself, he never feels the need of it, and therefore he never comprehends what we call tragedy." "I gather your inference," I said, smiling. "Well," she admitted, "I haven't stated the case with the shade of delicacy it deserves, but I wanted to make my meaning clear.
A heavy rain clears the air and subdues it for a time, but the sun soon dries the bunches still on the trees, and the cotton storm is again in full blast. This annoyance lasts through June and a part of July, fully six weeks, and then the stems themselves drop to, the ground, still holding enough cotton to keep up the storm for days.

"Certainly, and met; a friend of Louvier's " "The same man has obtained over him an influence which so far subdues mine, that he almost challenged me when I told him his friend was a scamp. In fine, though Alain and I have not actually quarrelled, we pass each other with, 'Bon jour, mon ami." "Hum! My dear Enguerrand, you have done all you could.

A holy man is by nature subject to sin equally with others; but he is holy because he subdues, tramples on, chains up, imprisons, puts out of the way this law of sin, and is ruled by religious and spiritual motives. Of Christ alone can it be said that He "did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth." The prince of this world came and found nothing in Him.
There can be no doubt but that the most convenient, the most logical and the most moral system of sexual intercourse, naturally, is polygamy. But the economic subdues the natural. Who proposes to have five wives when he cannot feed one? Society has made man an exclusively social product, and set him apart from nature.
