The Individual SOul.
Hnrnfr'E Rn.1


You fancy that You are inseperable from
your husband, your wife, your child. Yet
after all, how near one another are you?
Apart you are by all BREATH and spaces OF
Individuality. You sit before each other,
and if you were walled up alive and
alone, you could hardly be more iuaccsssi-
BILE II each other, more remote from each
OTHER. Have you the least idea CT what is
passing in the brain het1!e you-Rhat
mem 1ries, in which you have no share.
at this moment sweep through it,
What cid SORROW, glooming again
ct some chance encounter of sound or
scent, casts is shadow over the eye for an
instant, and you have NO sympathy with
it. What old joy makes the heart beat
more quickly and You kn5w nothing OF it!
With the best deSiTe3 'oc union, for COM
plete knowledge of each Other, for absolute
confidence, for life melting into life, q
thousand inextric1ble, inexplicable lit le
threads ca ch and hold you in their
wsshes, imprisol you. Lead you and keep
YOU apart. The mother, too, who
thinks her little dsughtr is utter
ly at one with her, has never o
ttolgbt uashared with her, might
fad, could she but penetrate the recess IS
of the c1ild's heart, life rs distinct from
the outer one lived all uccOnsc;ously, but
a necessary fact of identity and individual
development aud growth, as the ripeniDg
seed is distinct from the coIOlo OF flower
Many Of these souls desire and long to
approach each other, to lay aside this lone
illness. But yet it is in ore!iness they
must tread the wine press Of their suffer
iugs, only in less loneliness must drink
their draught OF ioy-a loneliness that can
only be laid aside with LIE, if even then.
And tie most aweiuspiring fact
of all this loneliness is
the loneliness of death at last, the going
down clone into the depths Of the dark
river, the proof of its cold waters, the mo
ment when neither plying face nor loving
lips nor helping hand can reach us, the en-
trance into the unknown; alone but for the
trust that we came onto this world only to
be met vita loving arms. it is loving arms
again that shall meet Us there; alone ulless
a great hope walks with US, hope wh!cd
must Rave also walked with us here il we
would have its compauioaship when the
waters close around US. withou! which the
loneliness is indeed appalling, bat with
which l. cases to be known, or ID be FELT,
