loving heart-he has gone astray. And is
this he time to desert him! This the time
to taunt him with words that roll like lava
from your passions, and only sere his suull
lie passes under cloudsj he is light now
perhaps has no other.
Many a true heart that would have com
back like a dove in the ark, from the first
transgresslon, has been frightened beyond
recall, by the angry look and menance-the
taunt, the savage charity OF an unforgiving
soul. Be careful how you freeze the first
warm emotions OF repentance. Beware lest
these pleading words, UNDECIDED, now sting
you in some shady valley of your future sor-
row. Repentance, changed by neglect or
unkindness, become like melted iron harden
ed in the monld. Triae with it never.
Be the first to meet the erring with out
stretched arms. Wipe the tear from his
eye-pour the balm of consolation on the
wounds that guilt has made. Let your heart
be the grave of his transgressions, your pity
find vent in bearing his burden; not in use
less words. O! forgive the erring. Did
not he who died on Calvary Shield him
from the contempt of grosser minds-make
blueness and brightness, and beauty where
all was cloud and storm before in his sad
life.
