Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

All this accords with reality, and is as remote as possible from imposture [PALEY, HorÃ¦ PaulinÃ¦]. The interchange of feeling is marked (2Co 2:4), "I wrote . . . that ye might know the love," &c.: here, "I did write, that I might know the proof of you."
