" The game could not go on between us. The stakes were not even. Loaded with the gifts of Providence, and accountable to your fellow creatures for their use, you may not squander your ample means on a barren soil, nor seek ruin with a reprobate whom you cannot save.
Yet, if once Anastasius did possess your love, and still returns all your affection ; if that wretch, that reprobate, in tlie midst of all his errors never ceased to reverence your virtues ; if his spirit, un- ANASTASIUS. 221 daunte...d by all else, stooped to you, and worshipped you alone, — Oh Spiridion, listen ! At present when, bereft of all hope, indeed weaned of all wish, to hear a sentence repealed on which depends your peace, he for ever renounces the happiness of your society, nay, urges you himself to fly his baneful presence, at least grant this last and only request ; grant what he, who never yet humbled himself before mortal man, implores of you on his bended knee : tell hira — lay this unction to his sickening soul to know — that you do not hold him in utter detestation ; that on leaving him, to return no more, you at least feel a pang: and when, — all earthly things gone by like unsubstantial shadows— comes the day of your reward in heaven for the good deeds done on this earth ; when, before the throne of Mercy, arrayed in all your worth, you receive your well-earned meed of ineffable joy, cast back one look of pity on the wretch who, overwhelmed by the weight of his guilt, sinks irretrievably while you rise to glory.
