And does not his felicity flow from perfect rest ? He is indeed a happy man ; but the fulness of his satisfaction flows from a deeper and SERMON XV.
purer spring, than the fact that his daily toil is over. If that rest, which he enjoys, consisted in doing noth- ing, he would find a more perfect rest in a profound sleep, than in the exhilarating circle of his best friends. But he rejoices in the dearest action of his soul, in the exercise of the best powers of his mind, his deep, pure affections.... It belongs, as I have before ob- served, to the nature of the human mind, that it finds rest from one occupation in the exercise of another. And thus, domestic love becomes to him, whose mind has been engaged in the arduous pursuits of the day, a stream of sweet forgetfulness, and leads the life-wearied spirit, even here on earth, to regions of pure delight. His home, his blessed home, gives reality to his golden dreams ; it shows him, when the sun, in whose heat he has been toiling, is set, suns and worlds without number, which, though now but dimly seen, guide the timid mind onward to the inr visible source of life and light, to his own birth-place, his eternal home.
