Enter CALEB.
Caleb. What are you contemplating Her.

friend for great disappointment with which
he has met. but am happy to put the busi-
ness in better hands


Father Grm6y. No. proceed; | too will

Herbert | consider no Joy or comfort of
life as substantial. | consider that every
good may possibly fail Immediately, and
therefore. let my mind enter upon its enioy-
ment, guarded with all due allowance for
this possibility. Moreover, consider that
every good may probably fail ere long and
| always enforce my mind in all its enjoy
ments, to admit this probability. Further.
more, | consider that every good acM eoeut-
uatty fail; so that however long NAV be
permitted to enjoy any comfort, must final
ly yield it up. This latter consideration
prevents me from setting too high a value
upon any earthly good. however inviting it
may seem to be. 1t checks the wildness of
ambition, and weans the mind from earthly /
enjoyments


Cateb. You certainly cherish a morbid |
sensibility to unhappiness by your distrust of
the future


Father Gru6y. 1t is better to tember our
fondness for present pleasure with a little
fear of losing it. than to be overwhelmed
with despair when adversely comes upon US.
