hurried,
and
you
think
you
are
lost.
Nay,
do
not
fear;
you
are
not
lost,
but
the
time
of
your
happi-ness
is
not
yet
come.
There
must
be
many
more
disturbances
and
losses
before
then
;
you
have
but
just
commenced
your
course.
At
last
this
dashing
torrent
feels
that
it
has
gained
the
foot
of
the
mountain
and
another
level
spot.
It
resumes
its
former
calm,
and
even
a
deeper
one
j
and
after
having
passed
it
may
be
years
in
these
changes,
it
enters
the
third
degree,
before
speaking

which
I
will
touch
upon

those
who
enter

passed
some
time
in
the
tranquillity
of
which

have
spoken,
which
it
imagines

has
secured
for
ever,
and
having,
as
it
supposes,
acquired
all
the
virtues
in
their
full
extent,
believing
all
its
passions
to
be
dead
;
when
it
is
expecting
to
enjoy
with
the
greatest
safety
a
happiness
it
has
no
fear
of
losing,
is
astonished
to
find
that,
instead
of
mount-ing
higher,
or
at
least
remaining
in
its
present
posi-tion,
it
comes
to
the
slope
of
the
mountain.
It
begins,
to
its
amazement,
to
be
sensible

an
in-clination
