Zeal, even in a good cause,
should be tempered with discre-
ton, but when employed or i'll,
and its whole purpose vitiated, it
is, indeed, a cruel curse. Strength,
energy, will, manly and noble
endOwments, should ever conduce
to valuable hands; neither should
they be employed for the objects
of pride, ambition OF selfishness.
Right principle, aud she fear of
God are first requisite in the man
of determination. Prejudice and
pride are lions in the path Of his
usefulness.
