In the Aosta Valley we were tormented by the recklessness of a driver who was drunk. Glad enough were we to change him for a sober man: sober as we thought; but, alas! we had only seen him in the morning, and before the afternoon bad much advanced his sobriety was gone, and we would willingly have taken back the discarded sot of yesterday. Ungodly men are very much alike when the time of temptation has fully come. The difference between one sinner and another is rather created by outward than by inward causes. Put them in-like circumstances, and they would be much the same. All swine are not in the mire, but they all love it.
