# Of the Imitation of Christ/Book IV/Chapter XV

CHAPTER XV.
THAT THE GRACE OF DEVOTION IS OBTAINED BY HUMILITY AND DENIAL.
HOU oughtest to seek the grace of devotion, and to ask for it earnestly, to wait for it with patience and confidence, to receive it with thankfulness, to keep it with humility, to work with it diligently.
Thou oughtest especially to humble thyself, when thou feelest inwardly little or no devotion; and yet not to be too much dejected, nor grieve inordinately.
God often giveth in one short moment that which He for a long time hath denied: He giveth sometimes in the end, that which in the beginning of thy prayer He deferred to grant.
2. If grace were always instantly given, and were ever at hand with a wish, weak man could not well bear it.
Therefore the grace of devotion is to be waited for with good hope and humble patience.
Nevertheless, do thou impute it to thyself, and to thine own sins, when this grace is not given thee, or when it is secretly taken away.
It is sometimes but a small matter that hindereth and hideth grace from us; at least if anything can be called small, and not rather a weighty matter, which hindereth so great a good.
But if thou remove this, be it great or small, and perfectly overcome it, thou shalt have thy desire.
​3. For immediately thou givest thyself to God from thy whole heart, and seekest not this nor that, according to thine own pleasure, thou shalt find thyself united to Him, and at peace; for nothing can afford so sweet a relish, nothing can be so delightful, as the good pleasure of the divine will.
Whosoever therefore, with a single heart, lifteth up his intention to God, and keepeth himself clear of all inordinate love or dislike of any created thing, he shall be the most fit to receive grace, and meet for the gift of true devotion.
For the Lord bestoweth His blessings where He findeth the vessels empty.
And the more perfectly a man forsaketh these low things, and the more he dieth to himself by contempt of himself, the more speedily shall grace come, and shall enter in the more plentifully, and shall lift up the free heart higher.
4. Then shall he see, and flow together, and wonder, and his heart shall be enlarged, because the hand of the Lord is with him, and he hath put himself wholly into His hand, even for ever and ever.
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed, who seeketh God with his whole heart.
This man in receiving the Holy Eucharist, obtaineth the grace of divine union; for that he looketh not to his own devotion and comfort, but to the honour and glory of God.

This is revision 73, as released by Public.Domain.Org.
Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Code or in an Act or resolution of the General Assembly, in the event any title, chapter, article, part, subpart, Code section, subsection, paragraph, subparagraph, item, sentence, clause, phrase, or word of this Code or of any Act or resolution of the General Assembly is declared or adjudged to be invalid or unconstitutional, such declaration or adjudication shall not affect the remaining portions of this Code or of such Act or resolution, which shall remain of full force and effect as if such portion so declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional were not originally a part of this Code or of such Act or resolution. The General Assembly declares that it would have enacted the remaining parts of this Code if it had known that such portion hereof would be declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional. The General Assembly further declares that it would have enacted the remaining parts of any other Act or resolution if it had known that such portion thereof would be declared or adjudged invalid or unconstitutional unless such Act or resolution contains an express provision to the contrary.
JUDICIAL DECISIONS
Severability clause creates presumption of separability.—The presence of a severability clause in an Act reverses the usual presumption that the General Assembly intends the Act to be an entirety and creates an opposite presumption of separability.

(a) Unless otherwise indicated in the context, references in this Code to titles, chapters, articles, parts, subparts, or Code sections shall mean titles, chapters, articles, parts, subparts, or Code sections of this Code.
(b) Unless there is an expressed intention to the contrary, any reference in this Code or in any law of this state to another provision of this Code or law of this state shall mean and be construed to refer to such other provision or law as it now or hereafter exists.
(c) Any reference in any local or special law of this state to any Act or resolution of the General Assembly or to any title, chapter, section, or other portion of any prior code of this state shall be construed to be a reference to the appropriate title, chapter, article, part, subpart, Code section, subsection, paragraph, subparagraph, division, or subdivision of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated.

This is revision 73, as released by Public.Domain.Org.
Unless otherwise provided, the adoption of this Code shall not invalidate or affect any rules or regulations which were in effect on November 1, 1982, promulgated pursuant to authority given by law, and such rules and regulations shall remain in force until repealed, replaced, or invalidated.
JUDICIAL DECISIONS
Three-minute rule remains unchanged.—Although the Official Code of Georgia Annotated (O. C. G. A.) specifically repealed the Code of 1933, the Rules of the Superior Court were not a part of that repealed code even though they “conveniently” appeared therein. The three-minute rule is one of long standing, originally promulgated pursuant to authority given by law and never specifically repealed by the General Assembly. As such, the three-minute rule remains viable and unchanged by the adoption of the O. C. G. A. Hinson v. Castellio, 168 Ga. App. 301, 308 S. E. 2d 705 (1983).
OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
Citations in traffic citation form.—Since there exists no requirement that there be citations to any Code sections on the Uniform Traffic Citation Form, the Code of Georgia of 1933 citations presently set forth on the form are mere surplusage; therefore, their removal or repeal by the new Code of Georgia Annotated will have no effect on the validity of the form. 1982 Op.

# Poems (1898)/Columbus

COLUMBUS
Viceroy they made him, Admiral and Don, Wishing—good King and Queen!—to honor him Whose deeds should make all like distinctions dim. Columbus! Other title needs he none. And they—in wisdom more than kingship blest— Go down to future days, remembered best For service rendered to that lowly one.
Columbus! With proud love, yet reverently, Pronounce that name,—the name of one who heard A word of life, and, answering that word, Braved death, unfearing, on the Shadowy Sea; Who—seeking land not known to any chart, That land by faith deep graven on his heart— Found justice, truth, and human liberty!
# Poems (1898)/Conscience

CONSCIENCE
The friend I loved betrayed my trust And bowed my spirit to the dust. I keep the hurt he gave, yet know He was forgiven long ago.
From him I did not merit ill, But I would bear injustice still,— Content could years of guiltless woe Undo the wrong I did my foe.
# Poems (1898)/Cora

CORA
I
When through thy arching aisles, O Nature, I perceive What brooding stillness fills the lonesome choirs Where, heaven'd late, thy sweet musicians sung;
What rude benumbing touch Strips from reluctant boughs The languid leaves, and bares to common view The sacred nest,—the mute, expressive nest,
Whose state defenseless tells Of fledgeling treasures flown,— Then, like the prudent birds, my thoughts take flight, Winging o'er wintry fields to find the spring.
II
Somewhere on Earth's cold breast The dauntless crocus glows, And fair Narcissus hangs his head and dreams: There,—laughing, blushing, like a happy bride,
​With tears in her sweet eyes To kiss away, shyly The Maiden comes, and, as she moves along, The woods and waking wolds intone her praise.
I, too, where all things tell Of Autumn chill and blight,— I, too, will praise her, ay, with transport hymn The unforgotten sweetness of the spring.
III
How desolate were Man If, robbed of dear delight, He might not with remembrance fond pursue And find his happiness, and lead it back!
The mournful Stygian shades Were less forlorn than he; For they have memory, and cannot lose Bright visions once in conscious bliss possessed!
Through Hades' wailful halls, Bereft of Proserpine, They pensive glide, yet feel the far, sweet spring, And seem to breathe lost Enna's distant flowers.
# Poems (1898)/By the Conemaugh

This poem was not included in Mrs. Coates' collected Poems (1916, in 2 vols.). Published in The American (22 June 1889).
BY THE CONEMAUGH
(MAY 31, 1889)
Foreboding sudden of untoward change, A tight'ning clasp on everything held dear, A moan of waters wild and strange, A whelming horror near; And, midst the thund’rous din a voice of doom,— "Make way for me, O Life, for Death make room!
"I come like the whirlwind rude, 'Gainst all thou hast cherished warring; I come like the flaming flood From a crater's mouth outpouring; I come like the avalanche gliding free; And the Power that sent thee forth, sends me!
"Where thou hast builded with strength secure My hand shall spread disaster; Where thou hast barr'd me, with forethought sure, Shall ruin flow the faster; I come to gather where thou hast sowed,— But I claim of thee nothing thou hast not owed!
"On my mission of mercy forth I go Where the Lord of Being sends me; His will is the only will I know, And my strength is the strength He lends me; Thy loved ones I hide 'neath my waters dim, But I cannot hide them away from Him!"

# Poems (1898)/Before the Hour

BEFORE THE HOUR
Untimely blossom! Poor, impatient thing, That, starting rashly from the sheltering mould, Bravest the peevish wind and sullen cold, Mistaking thine own ardors for the spring,— Thou to my heart a memory dost bring Of hopes once fair like thee, like thee too bold To breathe their fragrance, and their flowers unfold, That droop'd, of wintry rigors languishing. Nor birds, nor bees, nor waters murmuring low, Nor breezes blown from dewy Arcady, Found they,—earth's welcome waiting to bestow; Yet sweet, they felt, sweeter than dreams, would be The summer they had sought too soon to know,— The summer they should never live to see!
# Poems (1898)/Combatants

COMBATANTS
He seemed to call me, and I shrank dismayed, Deeming he threatened all I held most dear; But when at last his summons I obeyed, Perplexed and full of fear, I found upon his face no angry frown,— Only a visor down.
Indignant that his voice, so calm and sweet, In my despite, unto my soul appealed, I cried, "If thou hast courage, turn and meet A foeman full revealed!" And with determined zeal that made me strong, Contended with him long.
But oh, the armor he so meekly bore Was wrought for him in other worlds than ours! In firm defense of what he battled for, Were leagued eternal powers! I fell; yet overwhelmed by my disgrace, At last I saw his face.
And in its matchless beauty I forgot The constant service to my pledges due, ​And, with adoring love that sorrowed not, Entreated, "Tell me who Hath so o'erthrown my will and pride of youth!" He answered, "I am Truth."
# Poems (1898)/Death

DEATH
I am the key that parts the gates of Fame; I am the cloak that covers cowering Shame; I am the final goal of every race; I am the storm-tossed spirit's resting-place:
The messenger of sure and swift relief, Welcomed with wailings and reproachful grief; The friend of those that have no friend but me, I break all chains, and set all captives free.
I am the cloud that, when Earth's day is done, An instant veils an unextinguished sun; I am the brooding hush that follows strife, The waking from a dream that Man calls—Life!
# Poems (1898)/Be Thou My Guide

BE THOU MY GUIDE
Be Thou my guide, and I will walk in darkness As one who treads the beamy heights of day, Feeling a gladness amidst desert sadness, And breathing vernal fragrance all the way.
Be Thou my wealth, and, reft of all besides Thee, I will forget the strife for meaner things, Blest in the sweetness of thy rare completeness, And opulent beyond the dream of kings.
Be Thou my strength, O lowly One and saintly! And, though unvisioned ills about me throng, Though danger woo me and deceit pursue me, Yet in the thought of Thee I will be strong!
# Poems (1898)/Autumn

AUTUMN
"We ne'er will part!" Ah me, what plaintive sounds Are human protests! Dear one, lift your eyes! Behold the solemn, widespread prophecies Of that whose shadow all our light confounds, Of that whose being all our knowledge bounds! Far from the faded fields the robin flies, Upon her stem the last rose droops and dies, And through the pines a doomful blast resounds. As dawn is portent of the day's decline, As joy is prelude sweet to waiting sorrow, So ripened good is Nature's harvest sign: Love, only, the immortal strain doth borrow, And, high exalted by a hope divine, Still whispers in the night of death,—To-morrow!
# Pity the Poor Africans

* information about this edition.
* related portals: Slavery.
From The poetical works of William Cowper, 1870: original at the Bodleian Library, Oxford University
Video meliora proboqne. Deteriora sequor.
I own I am shock'd at the purchase of slaves,
And fear those who buy them and sell them are knaves;
What I hear of their hardships, their tortures, and groans,
Is almost enough to draw pity from stones.
I pity them greatly, but I must be mum, For how could we do without sugar and rum?
Especially sugar, so needful we see?
What, give up our desserts, our coffee, and tea!
Besides, if we do. the French, Dutch, and Danes
Will heartily thank us, no doubt, for our pains;
If we do not buy the poor creatures, they will,
And tortures and groans will he multiplied still.
If foreigners likewise would give up the trade, Much more in behalf of your wish might be said,
But, while they get riches by purchasing blacks,
Pray tell me, why we may not also go snacks?
Your scruples and arguments bring to my mind
A story so pat, you may think it is coin'd, On purpose to answer you, out of my mint;
But I can assure you I saw it in print.
A youngster at school, more sedate than the rest.
Had once his integrity put to the test;
His comrades had plotted an orchard to rob, And asked him to go and assist in the job.
He was shock'd, sir, like you, and answer'd, "Oh no!
What! rob our good neighbour! I pray you, don't go; Besides, the man's poor, his orchard's his bread, Then think of his children, for they must be fed."
"You speak very fine, and you look very grave. But apples we want, and apples we'll have; If you will go with us, you snail have a share. If not, you shall have neither apple nor pear."
They spoke, and Tom ponder'd— "I see they will go; Poor man! what a pity to injure him so!
Poor man! I would save him his fruit if I could, But staying behind will do him no good.
"If the matter depended alone upon me.
His apples might hang till they dropp'd from the tree; But, since they will take them, I think I'll go too. He will lose none by me, though I get a few."
His scruples thus silenced, Tom felt more at ease, And went with his comrades the apples to seize; He blamed and protested, but join'd in the plan; He shared in the plunder, but pitied the man.
