the individuals once poor in thonght,
ambition and character whom the grace
of God raises suddenly to wealthy places

force, or it is nothing. It finds men de
graded and depressed in spirit, and it
clothes them with dignity and inspires
them with lofty desires, It touches the
common life of men with the charm of
sanctifying purpose, and immediately
ordinary occasions and prosaic lives be
