matter what we analyze, it will be found
to be dust and cinders; but man when

governing power In the world is no longer

all problems, seeing that 1t is the summit
of Gods creation.
Conscience Is the center OF this human
soul; 1t is the point where the finite and
the infinite meet, where the material
