Life is the spark which kindles up a soul and opens its capacities to receive the great lessons which it is appointed to learn of the Universe-of Good-of Evil- of accountability – of Eternity; of Beauty, of Happiness. The inestimable moment in which the history of past ages is opened, its own relations to the Universe explained; its dependence and independence shewn; the time to reach itself the affections, and to gratify them, to ally itself in kindly bonds with other beings of like destiny; the time to educate a citizen of unknown spheres; the time to serve the Lord.
