For lh lUwi.

lion.
Let ua look on the boundless uni
vetse of mind and matter. The soul
inatinctievly anticipates endless vari
etv and expects to find It on every
hand. Inexplicable asia the fact, there
la no hope iu the soul that In its end
leas being it will be fully satisfied
with any single thing in the universe
but G"d. And then there fa another
Cict. couallv inexplicable. The soul
when once it knows and lovea any
thine, looks not for its like, hi every
thing else, but. retaining possession
of it, passes on in diligent search of
other cotiMial objects.
Every step in its endless progress
retaininc singularly vivid, tender
and distinct impressions of all it
ever knew mid loved before, to be
revived as occasion shall require in
its future history.
Again : when ence we possess any
desirable object, we ore unwilling to
part with it till we nnve exhausted
all its exc 1'pDce ; and its excellence
ih considered ii. exhaustible, we de
ire to possess it forever; tube depriv
ed of it would be regarded as an in
conceivable loss, whatever else in
number and in excellence might re
mam to us in the universe and 'n
eternity And so. If e could imag
ine everv created thing, annihilated
it is eaav to aee 'at immense, and
Immeasurable blank would ensue

of course, it becomes possible to he
