Answer, O poor, fluttering, wavering heart, that wishes to love both God and the world ! Their lust went before their world. They left it, not it them. So must we. Not before you die will your cities become what Ephesus is ; you will leave them probably as full of sin, of worldly fascination, as they are to-day; but lust passes away, passes to where there is no place for its indulgence, where it rages unsatisfied, like the troubled sea, without rest, yet evermore casting up mire and dirt. The r...ich man longs for water ; the appetite remains, but not the water ; he probably still prefers the wine, but no wine is given him. Cool your hot lusts, quench them rather, in the love of God that abideth forever. He that doeth his will, he that loveth God and show- eth his love by his works, he shall live and love forever. Death hath no dominion over him. 9 130 CHRIST US CONSOLATOR. It is but the entrance gate to higher life, to more ardent, more perfect, more rewarded love. If the Lord can give us here such proof of his love, such objects of permitted love as the scenes and odors and sounds of earth, as the thoughts that kindle our souls, the as- pirations that uplift them, the emotions that thrill them, and, above all, the loves that satisfy and well-nigh satiate them, so that we cry even now under their delirious delight, " Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples : for I am sick of love, " how much more will he rav- ish the soul loving him with the abundance of eternal love !
