With what it has left behind we shall have enough to occupy us for many a day. We have become quite fond of the little brown puppy, which we have named Jock. It is very teachable, and is immensely interested in the cattle that pass, barking with great energy at them. Wednesday, March 13. Mr. Keytel intended leaving to-day but the Greyhound has not made its appearance; it is thought it is becalmed.
And Athene rejoiced in the wisdom and judgment of the man. There is, too, an opinion of the same philosophic school that virtue is teachable, and has for its beginning good birth. And from such a sire thou too art sprung, wherefore thou dost even speak wisely. And by training it is brought to perfection.
In her ignorance and inexperience anything seemed possible if only she might escape from the trammels of city life, and from the Argus eye of her aunt Susan. "And am I to go and help my aunt Prudence, father?" "Yes; I think it is but right and kind that thou shouldst do so. Thou art willing thyself? and wilt thou be docile and teachable?" "I will strive in all things to please her."
We Determinists do not denounce men; we denounce acts. We do not blame men; we try to teach them. If they are not teachable we restrain them. You will admit that our method is different from the accepted method. I shall try to convince you that it is also materially better than the accepted, or Christian, method.
Ill- pause, that Diabolus brought with him, who was his orator; and he addressed himself to speak to the town of Mansoul; the tenour of whose speech here follows: 'Gentlemen, quoth he, 'it is my master's happiness that he has this day a quiet and teachable auditory; and it is hoped by us that we shall prevail with you not to cast off good advice.
It sometimes seems as if Christians thought that to be poor in spirit one must be poor-spirited a limp and spiritless creature, without dash, or vigor, or force. But the poor in spirit are not the poor-spirited. They are simply the teachable, the receptive, the people who want help and are conscious of need. They do not think they "know it all;" they appreciate their own insufficiency.
It is certainly most right that it should be so. But this really teachable and humble learner finds a false spelling in one of his books; or hears his teacher, from oversight, say one word in his explanation instead of another: does he cease to be teachable and humble, is it really a want of childlike faith, and an indulgence of the pride of reason, if he decides that the false spelling was an error of the press; that the word which his teacher used was a mistake?
Water, cold, heat, electricity, drugs, are all agents capable of being used advantageously in the treatment of disease. Above all men, the physician ought to have that teachable spirit which is the offspring of true humility.
And she announced herself as teachable and receptive. She could not yet understand, but understanding might come in time.
"And Jared lived after he begat Enoch eight hundred years, and begat sons and daughters." He lived therefore to see the fruit of his good rule and government in the church, even to see his teachable and dedicated son caught up to God and to his throne.
