For nothing so infallibly shows us the true state of our heart, as that which gives us either delight or trouble; for as our delight and trouble is, so is the state of our heart: if therefore you are carried away with any trouble or delight, that has not an immediate relation to your progress in the divine life, you may be assured your heart is not in its right state of prayer to God.

But what doth the Christian like this? None is ashamed, none repenteth, save that he was not such long ago. If he be marked down, he glorieth; if accused, maketh no defense; being questioned, confesseth even of his own accord; being condemned, giveth thanks. What manner of evil is this, which hath not the natural marks of evil, fear, shame, shrinking, penitence, sorrow? What manner of evil is this, whereof he that is accused rejoiceth?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death darkens his eyes, and unplumes his wings, Yet the sweetest song is the last he sings:  Live so, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58447]]></link><description><![CDATA[Death darkens his eyes, and unplumes his wings, Yet the sweetest song is the last he sings:  Live so, my Love, that when death shall come,   Swan-like and sweet it may waft thee home.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58447</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The god-like hero sate On his imperial throne:  His valiant peers were placed around,   Their brows with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4850]]></link><description><![CDATA[The god-like hero sate On his imperial throne:  His valiant peers were placed around,   Their brows with roses and with myrtles bound    (So should desert in arms be crowned).     The lovely Thais by his side,      Sate like a blooming Eastern bride       In flower of youth and beauty's pride.        Happy, happy, happy pair!         None but the brave,          None but the brave,           None but the brave deserve the fair.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After Tuesday night, we had a meeting.
