Chapter CXXVI

Here is a noble testimony to the comfort and assurance which Love, when made our "Lord and King," can impart.

In the Poet's estimation, Love is the Charity of St. Paul; believing, hoping, enduring, and never failing. Love brings us tidings of the dead. Love guards us in life, even in sleep. Through his influence we hear, as from a sentinel,

"Who moves about from place to place,
And whispers to the worlds of space,
In the deep night, that all is well."
