CHOICE OF A PROFESSION. 311 Moreover, to pursue the course recommended above would be practically absurd. Every man would do what he is least fitted to do ; and the consequence would be, that the whole work of life would be done in the worst possible manner and under the greatest possible disadvantages. Nor is this all ; for the subject has its religious aspects. When we refer to a man's profession as being his vocation, or calling, we suppose him to be called. There is one profession, indeed, ...that of the divine, which it is generally, and, as I conceive, justly, thought to be presumptuous to enter without being distinctly and emphatically called, and called of God. But how called ? The fancies and dreams of the enthusiast have nothing to do with a sober and prac- tical matter of this kind. Every man is calmly and impartially to consider what he was made for, what by the constitution of his mind and character he is best fitted to become, and to look upon this as a call from God, — the voice of God speaking in his own nature, which, when distinct and emphatic, he has no right to disregard.
