ONE spring morning, on a common lying at some distance from gardens, we observed a bee flying heavily, and almost pressed down with the weight of sweetness and beauty it had gathered. Over its sombre-colored body sparkled the silver and golden dust it had brought away from the blossoms where it had found the sweetness it had sought.
Happy example of a Christian, laden with the sweetness of heavenly things, and adorned with excellencies gathered up in searching after the beauties of God’s word!
