Body and Soul. September 15.
Remember that St. Paul always couples with the resurrection and ascension of our bodies in the next life the resurrection and ascension of our souls in this life, for without that, the resurrection of our bodies would be but a resurrection to fresh sin, and therefore to fresh misery and ruin.
All Saints’ Day Sermons. 1870.
Love in Absence. September 16.
Absence quickens love into consciousness.
MS.
The baby sings not on its mother’s breast;
Nor nightingales who nestle side by side;
Nor I by thine: but let us only part,
Then lips which should but kiss, and so be still,
As having uttered all, must speak again.
Sonnet. 1851.
