itself, when they complain of the sorrow and want round about
them. And yet it is not the devil for certain who puts pity into
their hearts.

Some very dull and sad people have genius though the world may

prayer, maybe. We know the divine spark is here and there in the
world: who shall say under what manifestations, or humble
disguise!
- [Genius]
