THE HEART’S DESIRE
PEACE.
’Tis not in seeking, ’Tis not in endless striving, Thy quest is found: Be still and listen, Be still and drink the quiet Of all around.
Not for thy crying, Not ior thy loud beseeching, Will peace draw near: Rest with palms folded ; Rest with thine eyelids fallen— Lo! peace is here.
OLD FRIENDS.
Old friends are the greatest blessing of one’s later years. Half a word conveys one’s meaning. They have a memory of the same events, and have the same mode of thinking. 1 have young relations that may grow upon me, for my nature is affectionate, but can they grow old friends? —Horace Walpole.
Do not think that what your thoughts
dwell upon is of no matter. Your thoughts are making you. —Bishop Steere.
