Job 5:6,7
6 Although affliction cometh not
forth of the dust, neither doth
trouble spring out of the ground;
7 Yet man is born unto trouble, as
the sparks fly upward.
***
Ecclesiastes 2:23
23 For all his days are sorrows,
and his travail grief; yea, his heart
taketh not rest in the night. This is
also vanity.
Ecclesiastes 6:12
12 For who knoweth what is good for
man in this life, all the days of his
vain life which he spendeth as a
shadow? for who can tell a man what
shall be after him under the sun?
***
Job 20:4,8,9
4 Knowest thou not this of old,
since man was placed upon earth,
8 He shall fly away as a dream, and
shall not be found: yea, he shall be
chased away as a vision of the night.
9 The eye also which saw him shall
see him no more; neither shall his
place any more behold him.

Thus olden faith's pale star now blends
In seven-hued white!
Life, without birth and without end,
Emitting light!

Give us grace for to-day;
feed the famished affections.

(The divine reflection)
The theory that soul, spirit, intelligence, inhabits matter is
taught by the schools. This theory is unscientific. The universe
reflects and expresses the divine substance or Mind; therefore God
is seen only in the spiritual universe and spiritual man, as the
sun is seen in the ray of light which goes out from it. God is
revealed only in that which reflects Life, Truth, Love, - yea,
which manifests God's attributes and power, even as the human
likeness thrown upon the mirror, repeats the color, form, and
action of the person in front of the mirror.

Forever present, bounteous, free,

And aye, with grace towards you and me,
For health makes room.

(Mortal birth and death)
The senses represent birth as untimely and death as
irresistible, as if man were a weed growing apace or a flower
withered by the sun and nipped by untimely frosts; but this is
true only of a mortal, not of a man in God's image and likeness.

Yet wherefore signalize the birth
Of him ne'er born?
What can rehearse the glorious worth
Of his high morn?

Thy will be done in earth,

(A mortal not man)
Whoever is incompetent to explain Soul would be wise not to
undertake the explanation of body. Life is, always has been, and
ever will be independent of matter; for Life is God, and man is
the idea of God, not formed materially but spiritually, and not
subject to decay and dust.
