Hermes. Prayer purifies ; it is a self-preached sermon. Richter. Prayer is the wing wherewith the soul flies to heaven, and meditation the eye wherewith we see God. Ambrose. 66 Digitized by LjOOQIC PRIDE — PROCRASTINATION. " When Pride leads the van, Beggary brings up the rear." Because you flourish in worldly affairs, Don't be haughty and put on airs, With insolent pride of station ! Don't be proud and turn up your nose At poorer people in plainer clo'es, But learn for the sake of your soul's ...repose That wealth's a bubble that comes and goes, And that all proud flesh, wherever it grows, Is subject to irritation. j. G. Saxe. Pride (of all others the most dangerous fault) Proceeds from want of sense or want of thought Roscommon. Pride is as loud a beggar as Want, and a great deal more saucy. When you have bought one fine thing, you must buy ten more, that your appearance may be all of a piece ; but it is easier to suppress the first desire than to satisfy all that follow it. Franklin.
