Let us rejoice in this truth, and, forgetting the world, live only for it." "Oh, may He who watcheth over all His children keep thee in faith of thy resolution!" said the Preacher, fervently.

"Humble yourselves to receive instruction, and it shall be given you.

Turn away now in your youth from the corrupting pleasures of the world, heed not its hollow vanities, and that peace which is not such as the world giveth, the peace of God which passeth all understanding, shall be yours.

Yet, let not yours be the world's righteousness, the world's peace, which shuts itself up in solitude.

Encloister not the body, but rather shut up the soul from sin.
