SOUL-SATISFACTION
Ellen Glasgow writes of the contentment of a soul on friendly terms with itself:
Since my soul and I are friends,
I go laughing on my road;
Whether up or down it wends,
I have never felt my load.

SOUL-SURGERY
In the corn-field you find the juicy ear overtaken by the deadly fungus. The farmer lifts his knife, and cuts away one-half of the ear, that he may save the sweet corn on the other half. From the prodigal, Jesus cut away his sins, that He might save the boy’s soul.—N. D. Hillis.
