“‘Heaven is not a region in the air,
Nor hell a gulf we know not where;
But heaven is where love and wisdom dwell,
Their absence ’tis that makes a hell.
Love absent—hatred enters in,
Guilt and revenge, and every sin;
Its smoke of torment still ascends—
The deathless worm that never ends,—
Till “death itself shall die.”’
“The outer life of the good and bad, may be much alike, but their inner life is vastly different. Into one the sunshine of heaven is poured, and perpetual summer reigns; into the other, darkness has free access, and winter storms ever howl.”
