How strange sometimes is the struggle
between love and pride How the weak
human heart, believing itself generous and
disinterested, is influenced by considera-
tions of mercenary, or at least worldly
character! How often do we deceive our
selves as to motive, and cling to the delu-
sion that we are acting for the benefit of
others, in spirit of benevolence and JUS
tice, when, in truth, the real springs of
our conduct may be traced to selfshness
or vanity! Even our best affections are
sometimes modified by these unworthy
feelings, and the beings of our love are
made victims even when we would rather
cut off right hand than darken our souls
by such guilt. The subtle selishness OF
our nature is calculated TO mslead and be.
tray--to picture as virtue much that is kim
dred unto vice--and TO describe as Judi.

and falsehood of fashion and society
