lady, answered Misano, for am not a.
varicious of the light, nor covetous of
those things which may conduce to the
felicity of others. To be DESTROYS of
combining my happiness to my own bo-
som, would be to dry up its'very Source.
the same as if man, by stopping the
aperture of an overlooking rock, should
strive to prevent the water from issuing
forth, when behold the consequence -
the repealed water, in going back, bursts
open another vent, and leaves the first
fountain DRY: You may therefore, both,
remain easy with the assurance that I
will deny you nothing which can contri-
butte 20 your happiness.
40. Relying upon this declaration, and
amidst many testimonies of kindness,thc
count and the princess took their leave
of NIisano. Misano remained at his
rustic employment, waiting for the tran
guilty of night, in order to indulge his
soul with the consideration Of the Won
ders of God, and his fatigued limbs
with necessary repose.

desired to hear the story of Misano; but
it was then late, and it was not well to
touch slightly matter of SO much i'm
portance. Sophia, then, requested Mi
sano not to take it amiss, if they should
return, at proper hour the next day, in
order to hear, from his mouth, the Sc
cret which they SO much desired to
know. And doubtless, says she to him,
thou wilt not think hard of dividing
with us the treasure which thou hast
found, because riches of this nature are
multiplied by the division of them.-
Possessing the fountain of happiness
within myself, thou oughtest not to de-
ny us the favour we ask ; for it is but
reasonable that thou shouldst do, in such
case, what every other fountain does,-
and we know that they, after filling their
own basons, sprinkle the water about on
all sides for the benefit of others. When
not single herb is to be seen in the
parched field, the painting sheep seek
the hard trunks of trees, or dry thorns,
and gnaw them to cool their burning
mouths here they slip down quite ex-
hausted, after climbing high to reach
some solitary green leaf which they had
seen at distance there others, melte d
into tenderness by the bleatings Of their
suffering lambs around them, instead of
milk, which they have not for them,
nourish them with their own BLOOD, com
PEELED by maternal love to die for them
to whom they had given life. All! what
confusion, what evils, what horrors
! should we not behold in nature, if the
covctous and selfish fountain should
Shut up its treasures within itsclfi To
prevent these evils, God has command
ed otherwise, and in obedience to the
command, the careful fountain is will
ing 70 extend her succours to all, and
runs, in haste, to DO so ; here she STUN
blcs over the stones, there she falls into
the cleits OF the rocks, and yonder she
throws herself down, with alacritv, from
a Precipice, for the express purpose of
solacing the poor thirsty flock that are
painting for her. Well! wilt thou not
do as much with this marvellous foun-
tain which thou hast discovered within
thyself9 Lo! here are thy lambs in a
similar condition, in 7V0ntj share with

1t is favourite notion, with many
persons Of the present day, that mani
kind are much more enlightened, and
much better informed, than they were
at the commencement of the last centu-
ry. So much has lately been said of the
" enlightened eighteenth century," that
mind ignorant of the history of former
ages, might well entertain this opinion.
Such mind would naturally conclude,
that n proportion as man became en-
lightencd and informed, his prejudices
and vicious passions would be diminish
cd. Hence tits too commonly inferred,
that there is at this time a more active
principle Of benevolence in the worldi
than at any former period.
l must admit that conclusion OF this
kind may, with apparent propriety, nc
drawn from the premises: but without
admitting or denying that the world has
increased in knowledge, ] do not tear to
hazard the declaration, that every de-
scription Of vice is as prevalent as ever.
