Charity students, for whom I have sacrificed the most

time,—those whose chief aim is to injure me,—have

caused me to exercise most patience. When they report

me as “hating those whom I do not love,” let them re-

member that there never was a time when I saw an op- [10]

portunity really to help them and failed to improve it;

and this, too, when I knew they were secretly striving

to injure me.
