Deeper grew my love, and clearer
Seemed her beauties in display.
She grew older, she grew dearer-

Had loved her for her beauty,
Had her heart been simply clay
Then might mine have ceased its worship
But her truths resplendent ray
Filled my soul and drew me nearer
To the fount where sweetness lay.

Toads, in the presence Of snakes,
usually remain perfectly still. In this
is their only safety, for did they make
the least movement they would imme-
diately be caught ] have known
hungry snake to lie waiting for over an
hour for a frog to move. and even push
with the nose to stir him up. This has
been called ''snake charming" " and in-
deed 1t looks like it, but the toad is the
charmer and the snake the charmee. l
remember one day / dropped toad in
the midst Of a pit Of snakes / had in my
back yard. He at once became per-
fectly still, though surrounded by more
than dozen hungry snakes. There
was circle Of fierce heads and glaring
eyes around him, but he would not
move. The circle narrowed until the
protruding tongues almost touched
him, yet he was immovable. Just then
/ was called away for over half an
hour, but on returning found the toad,
in grave dignity, still holding the fort

lowly, helpless creature. strong only
by adherence to natural faith thus
battling enemies numerous and power
full, brought Daniel before the mental
