ministers
of
sacraments
!
establish
His
kingdom
;
and,
in
order
to
establish
it
truly,
make
it
reign
over
HEARTS.
For
as
it
is
the
heart
alone
which
can
oppose
His
empire,
it
is
by
the
subjection
of
the
heart
that
His
sovereignty
is
most
honoured.
Alas
!
we
seek
to
make
studied
prayers
;
and
by
wishing
to
arrange
them
too
much,
we
render
them
impossible.
We
have
alienated
children
from
the
best
of
Fathers,
in
seeking
to
teach
them
a
polished
language.
Go,
poor
children,
and
speak
to
your
Heavenly
Father
in
your
natural'
language
:
however
uncultivated
it
may
be,
it
is
not
so
to
Him.
A
father
loves
best
the
speech
which
is
put
in
disorder
by
love
and
respect,
because
he
sees
that
it
comes
from
the
heart
:
it
is
more
to
him
than
a
dry
harangue,
vain
and
unfruitful
though
well
studied.
Oh,
how
certain
glances
of
love
charm
and
ravish
Him
!
They
express
infi-nitely
more
than
all
language
and
reason.
By
wishing
to
teach
how
to
love
Love
Himself
with
method,
much
of
this
love
has
been
lost.
Oh
I
it
is
not
necessary
to
teach
the
art
of
loving.
The
language
of
love
is
barbarous
to
him
who
does
not
