Power and sobriety are two good extremes. Love is between, the tie and temperament of both; preventing the two bad extremes... read more

This gift could slumber, like embers beneath the ashes, and wane away, unless the possessor should stir up, that is, enkindle and arouse it, as one does a... read more
