Whenever woman pliglits
her troth under the sky of heaven, at the
domestic hearth, or in consecrated aisles,
the ground is holy, the spirit of the hour
IS sacramental. That it is thus felt, even
by the most trivial, may be observed at
every wedding ceremony. Though the
mirth may be fast and furious before or
after the irrevocabe formula is spoken,
yet at that point of time, there is shadow
on the most laughing lip--a moisture in
the firmest eye. Wedlock, indissoluble,
except by act of Coda sacrament whose
solemnity reaches to eternity-will all
