Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. An immortal soul, with dormant powers that by and by will compass the universe; now soaring to the cope-stone of heaven, and measuring the stars; now turning the stone-leaves which beneath the earth record the histories of countless cycles. A soul which will at last strip off the encumbrance of clay, and sweep with exploring wing the vast eternity where God makes His dwelling place. And I must stoop beneath this wing and teach its first flight, that will rise higher and higher in the far forever.
