MASTER

There where the Soul hath slain its own Will, and willeth no more any

Thing as from itself, but only as God willeth, and as his Spirit moveth

upon the Soul shall this appear. Where the Love of Self is banished

there dwelleth the Love of God. For so much of the Soul's own Will as is

dead unto itself even so much room hath the Will of God, which is his

Love, taken up in that Soul. The reason whereof is this: Where its own

Will did before sit, there is now nothing; and where nothing is, there

it is that the Love of God worketh alone.
