Companions of the Way (Morning)He knoweth our frame. He remembereth that we are dust.
J. H. SHORT- HOUSE, John Inglesant
THIS is the most important lesson that a man can learn,—that all men are really alike; that all creeds and opinions are nothing but the mere result of chance and temperament; that no party is on the whole better than another; that no creed does more than shadow imperfectly forth some one side of truth; and it is only when you begin to see this that you can feel that pity for mankind, that sympathy with its disappointments and follies, and its natural human hopes, which have such a little time of growth and such a sure season of decay. . . . Nothing but the Infinite pity is sufficient for the infinite pathos of human life.
