Excerpt from Discourse, Preached in the First Congregational Church, New Bedford, Sunday, May 13th, 1860To the many friends of mrs. Arnold, I ask, in reverent sympathy, to ad dress this discourse, which some who heard, desired to have in a form that they could keep. When our friends are taken from us, the smallest things associated with their memories become precious treasures, and so I cannot refuse this offering, however unworthy of its object it seems to me, if therein any sorrowing heart find comfort. Excepting a few verbal alterations, the sermon stands as it fell.The grass is already green upon her grave, -'se green that one can hardly believe that the sod was opened but a month ago. So her memory grows green and strengthens in our hearts, as every day brings to light some new confirmation of her worth. Not into the grave, not over the grave does the true man lavish the noble treasure of ardent love, he turns back into himself, and finds, astonished, in his own bosom, the lost one again.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
