The class of candidates for full connection
was called before the Conference. The dis
ciplinary questions We're asked and answer,

follows:-
If we must have in speaking, extremes
of too long and too loud, or too short and
too low, would have the long loud ex-
treme. Sometimes sermon fifteen min
utes long, is just fifteen minutes toe
long.
You have said that you are going on
to perfection, not that you have realized
it, but that you are in pursuit of il. You
expect to be made perfect in love in this
life, and are groaning after it. Every
minister in full connection with the timer
ancy, has said the same thing.

questions in good faith as doubt not you
have done. But have to confess before

Shall add their hush 10 my mute repoSe;
Sooner or later shall slant and shift
And heap my bed with their dazzling drift.
Chill though that frozen pail shall seem,
Its touch no colder can make the dream
That wrecks not the sweet and sacred dread.
Shrouding the city of the dead.
Sooner or later the bee shall come
And ill the noon with its golden hum;
Sooner or later on half poised wing
The biuebirG's warbieS about me ring.
Ring and chirrup and whistle with glee,
Nothing his music means TO me;
None OF these beautiful things shall know
How sound their lover sleeps below.
Sooner or later far out in the night
Tie stars shall over me wing their fight;
Sooner or later my darkling dews
Catch the white sparks in their silent ooze.
Never a ray shall part the gloom
That wraps me round in the kindly tomb:
Peace shall be perfect for lip and brow
Sooner or later-oh, why not now?
