Years, however, passed without any modification of my opinions. But it pleased God to lead me into the truth. My health failed, my official employments had to be abandoned ; I lost my chil- dren, my wife died, and I was wandering over the world alone, with scarcely any thing remaining but God. I lost my hold on all things else, and became, as it were, lost my- self in God. My affections centered in Him. My will be- came absorbed in His. I sunk, as it were, into the blessing of His perfect love,... and found in my own consciousness the reality of the doctrine which I had theoretically doubted. ' " Some years have elapsed since this conversation. I can not pretend to give it verbally, but this was its substance. He lived through the remainder of his career in the spirit and power of the great doctrine of holiness. His views of it were remarkable for their simplicity. The usual technical subtil- ties and metaphysical embarrassments of theorists hardly re- ceived his consideration. He saw the simple, perfect stand- ard of evangelic holiness ; he perceived that neither himself nor the Christian world generally lived up to it ; he gave himself entirely to it by laying his whole being on the altar of consecration, where he daily kept it by faith and watch- fulness.
