THE CITY OF GOD MY MASTER, sometimes my mind is burdened with the sense of the City of Destruction. I feel its hellish proximity, smell its chimney smoke stenched with sulphur fume, and see its mud on my sandals and up to my knees. I am filled with abhorrence and with alarm. The muck, the filth, the slow ooze of mire, the horrible rub- THE THRONE OF GRACE 87 bish heaps, the shame that is shameless — these be the City of Destruction which contaminates the air and my way. My soul loathes it but I... feel it. How to be quit of it appears a task too arduous, overwhelming, disheartening, so as to dismay me and break all blitheness from my spirit. Then on other days I feel the City of God not far removed but very near. I feel its supernal glories and hear its anthems swell upon the wind and see its white-robed inhabitants with harp and cymbals and palms and hear the rap- tures set to everlasting melody. A city where stability is assured, whose foundations no earth- quake shock can any wise disquiet or imperil, since they rest on the Rock of Ages.
