Here eight great olive trees much larger than the rest form a sacred grove from whose melancholy shadows might well come that agonizing cry to his disciples for human sympathy and love: "Could ye not watch with me one hour?" Here did Judas come over the brook Kedron with the hungry, cruel mob and betray Him with a kiss.
"But if I don't they will hire another teacher, and that will drive me away from home to earn money " Mary Hope had not in the least intended to say that, which might be interpreted as a bid for sympathy. "Well, Belle, she says no strange woman can use that schoolhouse. They might not find anything to teach school in, if they tried that." "You've got to keep that money."
But even this act did not draw the party into any closer sympathy. The young woman readjusted her somewhat draggled plumes with a feeble, faded coquetry; Mother Shipton eyed the possessor of "Five Spot" with malevolence, and Uncle Billy included the whole party in one sweeping anathema.
Well, a fellow can't exactly stand on one leg and then on t'other all through a call. She didn't ask me to sit down. Said her father was coming home by Smelter City and you could have the pleasure of conveying your sympathy personally: kept standing herself all the time; kept looking from me to the door.
Was it not in effect asking for a sympathy which she could not hope for from any other? Was it not establishing a certain secret between them? Her own father did not know. Her sister was too young to be told. Friends like Mrs. Ross could not understand why this young and beautiful actress, the favorite of the public, could be dissatisfied with her lot. It was to him alone she had appealed.
"One ought to be independent!" said Mercy, a little nettled. "Are you sure of that? What is called independence may really be want of sympathy. That would indicate a kind of loneliness anything but good." "I wish you would find a less disagreeable companion then! one that would at least be as good as nobody! I am sorry I don't know how to give you room. I would if I could. Tell me how."
Patients on patients crowded on me. Sympathy with my sorrow seemed to create and endear a more trustful belief in my skill.
Nay, rather, it should be patiently educated. The sick one must not be avoided nor slighted merely because he is ailing. Nay, rather, he must be regarded with sympathy and affection and treated until he is healed. The soul that is asleep must not be looked upon with contempt but awakened and led into the light. Bahá’u’lláh teaches that religion must be in conformity with science and reason.
From the Rumanians within the kingdom they have received little beside sympathy.
"Woeful inheritance fallen to me!" he complains, in his passion of revolt against this divine infliction, "that I, the only sinner among all, should be condemned to be keeper of holiest holies, and call down blessings upon those purer than I!" But the worst of his anguish is still that when the holy blood glows in the Cup, and, in sympathy, the blood gushes forth anew from the wound in his side the wound made by the same Spear the consciousness ever returns to burning life that, whereas those holy drops were shed in a heavenly compassion for the misery of man, these are unregenerate blood, hot with sinful human passion and longing, which no chastening has availed to drive out.
