Morning Star

CHAPTER IV
16/19

Yet, O Dweller in Osiris, thou who once didst fill the place I hold to-day, I tell thee that I would pay away this pomp, could I but be sure that I shall not live loveless, that I shall not be given as a chattel to one whom I hate, that one--whom I do not hate--will live to call me--wife.
Great dangers threaten him--and me, Amen is mighty; he is the potter that moulds the clay of men; if I be his child, if his spirit is breathed into me, oh! let him help me now." "Let thine own faith help thee.

Study them and ask no more.

Love is an arrow that does not miss its mark; it is the immortal fire from on high which winds and waters cannot quench.

Therefore love on.

Thou shalt not love in vain.
