templating the accomplishment OF
some important object. II shall GER.
tainly fail if don't try" replied that
neighbor. How true was the answer F!
In how many instances is its applica-
tion most solemn and startling! The
sinner will certainly fail of heaven, il
he does not try to be saved. The
great commission Of Jesus Christ will
fail to be executed, if the Church does
not try to execute it, What was ever
obtained by not trying? Try, then, if
you may, for worthy objects, and fail,
if you must, in trying.

cast, though many z man makes an
outcast Of himself.
