" Humph," said Daniel, scratching- his head for a few seconds, " that isn't Scripture, John." John started. He had a faint idea that it was somewhere in the Book of Proverbs. " No, John, no ; I don't believe it either. But if it was I fancy it would be well thumbed— a favourite passage. And what would folk mean by it 1 Why, that you're bound to get so much o' this here world as ever you can, an' just so much of the next world as is wanted for to make it all right if death was to take ye unawares. There isn't two worlds, only one ; an' the only world that you and I have got to live in is where we can do the will o'. the Father as it is done in Heaven. I must get on, some say, and say it so pious as if it was one of the Ten Commandments, but ' tisn't, friends, ' tisn't. I must get up, that's the Christian's ' must,' an' if I can get on too I will. But I must get up. ' Lot lifted up his eyes' and saw that the place was well watered everywhere. That was enough, what more could anybody wish for 1 Ah ! but what he didn't see was a good deal more than what he did. There was a heavy mortgage on that estate— Sodom had a bad name even then. We lose ever so much o' the meaning o' the Bible, because we go forgettin' that folks in them old times was made o' jist the same flesh and blood as we are now- a days, an' Lot talked the matter over with his wife. I can almost hear ' em—' Quite providential that this should happen here in sight of this beautiful place. Of course we must be careful; it has not a very good name, but what a sphere of usefulness !' Ah ! Lot, you shall only escape by tne skin o' your teeth ; but as for your wife, she shall perish there— neither in Sodom nor out of it, but between the two, like a monument put up for to show what do come o' trying to make the best o' both worlds."
