"I made haste, and delayed not to keep Thy commandments." -- 119:60."Ye know not what shall be on the morrow." -- 4:14.Never delay To do the duty which the hour brings, Whether it be in great or smaller things; For who doth know What he shall do the coming day?ANON.It is quite impossible that an idle, floating spirit can ever look up with clear eye to God; spreading its miserable anarchy before the symmetry of the creative Mind; in the midst of a disorderly being, that has neither centre nor circumference, kneeling beneath the glorious sky, that everywhere has both; and for a life that is "all" failure, turning to the Lord of the silent stars, of whose punctual thought it is, that "not one faileth." The heavens, with their everlasting faithfulness, look down on no sadder contradiction, than the sluggard and the slattern in their prayers.J. MARTINEAU.
