and  from  within :  they  will  painfully  discover  the  diiTerenoe  between  a
dream  of  sensibility^  and  a  labour  of  benevolence ;  and  they  may  have  to
labour  through  a  long  life  without  effecting  any  tangible  good ;  may
wander  for  years  in  the  desert^  and  never  behold  the  promised  land,
even  in  a  Pisgah-view-^save  with  the  eye  of  fsath;  or  having  done  much,
find  that  all  is  yet  to  do.  If  the  days  of  persecution  are  past,  the
rack  at  rest,  the  wheel  of  torture  revolve  no  more,  and  the  fires  of
Smithfield  be  quenched  for  ever,  the  world  has  engines  still  to  assault
the  man  that  goes  about  to  mend  it— calumny,  fidse  praise,  bribery,
poverty,  witcheries  of  love,  and  sundering  of  loves ;  but  worse  than
the  world,  and  stronger  far,  is  the  bosom  fiend  Despair.
