This, as we have formerly observed, is the fundamental
character of sensuous Self-love,--that it requires a Life
fashioned in a particular way, and seeks its Happiness in
some particular object; while, on the contrary, the Love of
God regards every form of Life, and all objects, but as
means; and knows that everything which is given is the
proper and necessary means; and therefore never desires
any object
determined
in this or that particular way, but

And talk to me of sunny days,
And then the glad sheep resting bye
All still in
ruminating

Of summer and the pleasant place
And every weed and blossom too
Was looking upward in my face
With friendship's welcome "how do ye do?

Le Testament: Ballade: 'Item: Donne A Ma Povre Mere'
Item
This I give to my poor mother
As a prayer now, to our Mistress
- She who bore bitter pain for me,
God knows, and also much sadness -
I've no other castle or fortress,
That my body and soul can summon,
When I'm faced with life's distress,
Nor has my mother, poor woman:
Ballade
'Lady of Heaven, earthly queen,
Empress of the
infernal
regions,
Receive me, a humble Christian,
To live among the chosen ones,
Though I'm worth less than anyone.

close restraint she found means to advertise her fa-
ther of the condition she was in, and made it much
worse than it was, seeming to
apprehend
the safety
of her life threatened by the malice of the countess,
mother to her husband, " who," she said, " did all
" she could to alienate his affection from her ; and
" now that she found she was with child, would per-
" suade him that it was not his ; and took all this
" extreme course, either to make her miscarry and
" so endanger her life, or to put an end to mother
" and child when she should miscarry :" and there-
fore besought her father, " that he would find some
" way to procure her liberty, and to remove her
" from that place, as the only means to save her
" life.
