In the physical law of gravi* tation a ship mav careen trom side to side, and thus train sailors to become skillful and b**ld, hut al length it goes too far and capsizes and sinks, and hundreds of centuries will not remedy it.* In organic law the same is true A trie may be cut, and may heal even stronger than before, hut if cashed beyond the hea' t, it dies; ami no one will expect that centuries of stiff ring will hrinir it hick to life. ’*These two sets ot natural laws point in the same ireetion. and teach that there is such a thing as being too late to mend. From analogy, then, we ‘ must conclude that, under the third set, or natural moral law. the same thing holds true. The condition of things is such that ;;u uuwillingne-a to acce *t goodness may ri|ien into eternal voluntary opposition to it. Under the irreversible nanira] law, there may exist in the universe eternal •<in.* I would not teach the truth of future punishment by saving that man is punished forever and forevei, for the sins of that hand’s breadth ot duration we call time It the soul does not re|»ent with contrition, the nature of things-forbids its peace.
