Excerpt from Memorials of a Quiet Life Element and end in all strong and beautiful conduct. That element is always tranquil; and, accordingly, those lives where the Heavenly Presence is felt are always serene and steadfast. What needs to be demonstrated of the Christian Faith now seems to be not so much the credibility of its documentary evidence as the genuine ness of its original quality; not so much its top-growth as its root; not so much its capacity of noise and disten sion as the blessedness of its patient, silent and yet in tensely earnest waiting upon God. To be ardent without affectation, enthusiastic without inconstancy, vigorous with out assumption, cheerful without irreverence, equal to all occasions without courting either applause or opposition, is the perfect type of piety. Thus far it appears to have been yielded nowhere in Christendom, in its purest and finest form, so often as in the Christian homes of Eng land.
