Victory.
21 Cor. 11, 17. When youi are forgotten or neglected or purposely set at naUighi, and you smilei inwardly, glorying in the insiult or the oversight, That is victory.
When your goodl is evil spoken- of, when your wishes are crossed, Your taste offendbd, your advice dis- ■ regarded, your opinions ridiaukd, and you take it in patient, and loving silence, ! ', That is victory. When you can bear with ony discord, a,n;y irregularity and unpunctuallty and annoyalncel--and are con tent with any food, any raiment, any climate, any society, any solitude, any interruption, That: is victory. When you never care to refer to yourself in 'conversation or to- record your own good works, and tj itch after comniiiendaition, When you dan truly "Love to be unknown" That .is victory.
