Every one who rightly considers it, may know, that eminence and opulence in the world are not real divine blessings, notwithstanding man, from the pleasure he finds in them, calls them so; for they pass away, and also seduce many, and turn them away from heaven; but that eternal life, and its happiness, are real blessings, which are from the Divine: this the Lord also teaches in Luke: 12 ch., 33-34. "Make to yourselves a treasure that faileth not in the heavens, where the thief cometh not, nor the moth corrupteth; for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." --_Emanuel Swedenborg, 1688-1772._ 1673 Without frugality none can become rich, and with it, few would become poor. --_Dr. Johnson._ 1674 No man has a right to do as he pleases, except when he pleases to do right. 1675 _Late Rising._--He who rises late, must trot all day, and will scarcely overtake his business at night. --_Dr. Fuller._ 1676 To wish for anything that is unattainable is worthless, and a poor road to travel. 1677 He that is robb'd, not wanting what is stolen, Let him not know't, and he's not robb'd at all. --_Shakespeare._ 1678 One roof and two winds--i. e., persons of opposite tempers living together. --_Chinese._ 1679 Water and protect the root; Heaven will watch the flower and fruit. --_Chinese._ 1680 If a man could make a single rose, we should give him an empire; yet roses, and flowers no less beautiful, are scattered in profusion over the world, and no one regards them. 1681 Royalty is but a feather in a man's cap; let children enjoy their rattle. --_Cromwell._ 1682 There cannot be a greater rudeness than to interrupt another in the current of his discourse. --_Locke._ 1683 No rumor wholly dies, once bruited wide. --_Hesiod, a Greek, 850 B. C._ S 1684 He who ordained the Sabbath loved the poor. --_O. W. Holmes._ 1685 Those persons who are in the habit of avoiding worldly cares on the Sabbath, are the most remarkable for the perfect performance of their duties during the week. The influence of a change of thought on the Sabbath upon the minds of such persons, resembles that of a change of food upon the body. It seems to give a fresh spring to the mental operations, as the latter does to the physical. 1686 SABBATH.
