Hail, Sabbath! thee I hail, the poor man's day:
On other days the man of toil is doom'd
To eat his joyless bread--the ground
Both seat and board--screen'd from the winter's cold
And summer's heat, by neighboring hedge or tree;
But on _this_ day, embosom'd in his home,
He shares the frugal meal with those he loves.
--_Grahame._

A well-spent Sabbath on earth, prepares us for the spending of a better
one in heaven.
1688
Better a little in safety, than an abundance, surrounded by danger.
1689
More can be said in one minute than can be forgotten in a lifetime.
