259 love, bred of esteem and gratitude, glowed within the heart of Ruth ; and she was only too happy to be able to testify by acts, her deep and lasting affection for the unfortunate Naomi. It would have been repugnant to her nature to forsake in adversity a relative to whom she had adhered in prosperity. No, rather submit to a life of trial, or even destitution, than be selfishly in grate to one every way de- serving of her good offices and daughterly affection. Being thus prepared to submit t...o her hard but self-imposed lot, she no sooner reached Bethlehem than she set herself to obtain adequate sustenance by gleaning, and rich were her earnings. She first secured the goodwill of the mighty Boaz, to whom belonged the field she had chosen for her labours, and these were the friendly words which accom- panied his promise of protection, " It has been shown to me all that thou hast done unto thy mother-in-law since the death of thy husband, and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother and the land of thy nativity, and art come unto a people which thou knowest not heretofore ; the Lord re- compense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the God of Israel, under whose wings thou hast come to trust".
