Soon there would remain to us, towards the end of our days, nothing but the most miserable resi- due of wisdom. It is meet, therefore, that the loftiest interpretation which we can give of the facts that hustle us at every moment should rise in proportion as the gross treasure of the practical sense of existence accumulates. According as our 224 The Forgiveness of Injuries sense of life increases in the soil by the roots, it is indispensable that it should ascend in the light by the fruits and ...flowers.
