FOOTSTEPS OF TRUTH.
119

Intelligence, and no Intelligence in a nerve; no sorrow in Truth, and no Truth in sorrow; no matter in Life, and no Life in matter; no matter in Good, and no Good in matter.

If you venture upon the quiet surface of error, what disturbs the waters? What is there to strip off error's disguise?

On the contrary, if you launch your bark upon the ever-agitated but healthful waters of Truth, you will encounter storms. Your good will be evil spoken of. This is the cross. Take it up, and bear it, for it wins and wears the crown. Pilgrim on earth, thy home is heaven. A stranger, thou art the guest of God.
