minds, who laugh at them.--GREVILLE.
Delicacy is to the mind what fragrance is to the fruit.--ACHILLES
POINCELOT.

stern realities of life.--A.R.C. DALLAS.

necessary to our happiness as realities.--BOVEE.

as they are, and making the best of them, we follow an ignis fatuus,
and lose, in its pursuit, the joy we might attain.--JAMES ELLIS.

his Helper is omnipotent.--JEREMY TAYLOR.
