I Remember How Beautiful The Merrimac Looked

Sometimes It Seems To Me That God 's Way Of Dealing With Me Is Not To Let Me See Much Of My Friends, Those Who Are Most To Me In The Spiritual Life, Lest I Should Forget That The Invisible Bond Is The Only Reality.

Life Hangs As Nothing In The Scale Against Dear Liberty!
