It is not mvessary that a man -l>e

I mean to underrate love between the

or lUijyp- or manor, either in its nature
or in its products: and if I were hot

is ^business. and duty is duty: so I
must not 1m? diverted from my work on

out being in love. I have known sev

He is in love with ? himself; lie does

only a negative one. but a very |x?si

consequently, is usually more or loss
a course of evil action, in refusing to
discharge the (Ifitics incumbent ii|>On
