A Portraiture of Quakerism, Volume I (of 3)

INTRODUCTION
187/423

One man says to himself "this will constitute my pleasure." He follows it.

He finds it vanity and vexation of spirit.
He says again "I have found my self deceived.

I now see my happiness in other pleasures, and not in those where I fancied it." He follows these.
He becomes sickened.

He finds the result different from his expectations.

He pursues pleasure, but pleasure is not there.
[14]"They are lost In chase of fancied happiness, still woo'd, And never won.
