harmony from the epoch when, on commencing his residence at
Cambridge, he voluntarily became a teacher in a parish
Sunday-school, for the sake of applying his theories of
religious education, to the time when, on the point of setting
forth on his last fatal journey, he framed a plan of obtaining
access, in the ensuing winter, to a large commercial
establishment, in the view of familiarizing himself with the
actual course and minute detail of mercantile transactions.

"Insensibly and unconsciously he had made himself a large number
of friends in the last few years of his life: the painful

wanting them, and beyond which they frequently never get.

The main duty of those who care for the young is to secure their
wholesome, their entire growth, for health is just the development of
the whole nature in its due sequences and proportions: first the
blade--then the ear--then, and not till then, the full corn in the ear;
