LOVE AND PAIN
it is not love that hurts men. The craving for lov< the turning earthly and heavenly affection into merchar dise, these hurt, and suffering hurts that we make ou own; but the love that brings pain is itself painless. I the midst of longing, heart-hunger, and all the forms c selfishness that we dignify with such high-sounding name there is one thing at peace. That is love. And aboi it the passions sweep, grudging, exacting, contending wit each other for their gains; but the prayer of love is nr to receive joy, nor to escape from pain, only that it ma give more, and give for ever. —May Kendall.
