THE WIFE.

How sweet to the soul of man, (says
Hierocles )is the society ofa beloved wife!
When wearied and broken down by the
labours of the day, her endearments
soothe, her tender cares restore him. The
solicitudes and anxieties, and the heav-
lest misfortunes oflife, are hardly to be
borne by him who has the weigh, and
business Of domestic cares at the same
time to contend with. But how much
lighter do they seem, when after his ne
Cessary avocations are over, he returns
to his home, and finds there partner of
all his griefs and troubles, who takes for
his sake her share Of domestic labours
upon her, and soothes the anguish of an
ticipalion. A wife is not, as she is false
ly represented and esteemed by some, a
burded or sorrow to man. No, she shares
his burdens, and she alleviates his sor-
rows for there is no difficulty so insup-
portable in life, but it may be surmount-
dby mutual labours Of the affectionate
concord Of that holy partnership.
