LessPopular passagesWe live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart-throbs. He most lives Who thinks most — feels the noblest — acts the best. Page 88 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly of heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls. Page 42 MoreHe that loveth houses or land, gold or silver, more than me, is not worthy of me — and he that forsaketh not all that he hath, cannot be my disciple. Page 42 I could not have come at a better time to do good, or a worse for gaining spirits. My aunt's two daughters are married, and live in this village ; one of them, with three children, has a husband at the point of death with a fever; his brother died yesterday of the small-pox, and two of her children have the whooping-cough ; added to this, their whole dependence is upon their own exertions, which are, of course, entirely stopped now.

" Near the end, one at her side said to another, in tears, " How much stronger she is than we are ! " "I am so much nearer the Source of strength, Page 428 I am no advocate for destroying that delicacy which forms, or ought to form, so great a part of the female character. But such a degree of it as is not compatible with sufficient firmness to command one's self in danger, appears to me to be false modesty, or sickly sensibility of soul, beneath the dignity of beings endowed with power for higher feelings. Page 19 She took up her quarters with the poor bereaved mother, and was able to be a great comfort to her, by long talks at night, when all was still, showing her the way to the only true comfort, of which the poor, ill-taught young woman had hitherto known little. At the week's end, however, poor Bessy sickened... Page 140 She never worried. Sudden interruptions, culinary disappointments, " shoals of visitors " with little of preparation, were not allowed to chill her welcome or cloud their enjoyment. There were no apologies at that table. If unexpected guests were not always filled, they were never annoyed, nor suffered to think much about it. - A clergyman, who visited the house often as a student, says of Mrs. Ware : " I remember the wonder I felt at her humility and dignity in welcoming to her table on some occasion...
