More especially, do not neglect, while cultivating the intellect, to improve the heart. This would, indeed, be division of labour which is very much to be deprecated. “With the heart man believeth unto righteousness.” “Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.” If knowledge is the great moving power that ensures progress, Christian love, love which fulfilleth the law, is the great source of political stability, social harmony, restoration of soul. Therefore, in the eloquent words of the Bishop of St. David’s, words which in connexion with the present subject well deserve to be quoted,—“‘SURSUM CORDA,’ UPWARD, HEARTS,—upward, above all paltry, sordid, grovelling aims and desires: upward, to a level with the dignity of your calling, the privileges and duties of your station, the importance and arduousness of your work: upward, to a fellowship with the wise and good of all ages and all nations: upward to the Father of Lights, the Fountain of all Goodness: LIFT UP YOUR HEARTS. And from the inmost depth of many devoted wills there rises the clear response, ‘WE LIFT THEM UP UNTO THE LORD.’” {28} Finally, why should not the leading spirits among you, seriously and prayerfully studying the causes of the rise and fall of nations, band together in a holy alliance, under the title of Young Wales, to promote among your countrymen the spirit of true as opposed to false patriotism; namely, a strong passion for _sound_ knowledge with its elevating, building power, as opposed to mere erudition on the one hand, and on the other, to a complacent resting in ignorance with its heritage of national decadence, and slight store of light and soul-culture laid by for heaven? Such a movement as this, radiating from our chief Collegiate Institution, would be an event, the value of which to the cause of Welsh nationality, it would be difficult to estimate in too high a strain. * * * * * * * * * * SPURRELL, PRINTER, KING-STREET, CARMARTHEN.
