speaking them; but 1t is not easy some
times to get out of the way of hearing
them, when once they have made their
sweet music In our ears. And let us,
for our own sake, be sure to speak them
before the hearts which they might
gladden. have gone beyond the veil that
hides them from an earthly love and
care. This human love Of ours is surely
one Of Gods best gifts to us; and he
