Oh do not die, for I shall hate All women so, when thou art gone.

Commemoration of Richard Meux Benson, Founder of the Society of St John the Evangelist, 1915 Our critical day is not the very day of our death, but the whole course of our life; I thank him, that prays for me when my bell tolls; but I thank him much more, that catechizes me, or preaches to me, or instructs me how to live.

Humiliation is the beginning of sanctification.

And what is so intricate, so entangling as death? Who ever got out of a winding sheet?

How much shall I be changed, before I am changed!
