me,
and
I
in
Thee
;
that
they
also
may
be
one
in
us,
I
in
them,
and
Thou
in
me,
that
they
may
be
made
perfect
in
one."
(John
xvii.
21,
23).
"He
that
is
joined
unto
the
Lord
is
one
spuit"
(i
Cor.
vi
17).
This
state
is
very
little
known,
therefore
it
is
not
spoken
of.
O
state
of
life
!
how
narrow
is
the
way
which
leadeth
unto
thee
!
O
love
the
most
pure
of
all,
because
Thou
art
God
Himself!
O
love
im-mense
and
independent,
which
nothing
can
limit
or
straiten
!
Yet
these
people
appear
quite
common,
as
I
have
said,
because
they
have
nothing
outwardly
to
distinguish
them,
unless
it
be
an
infinite
freedom,
which
is
often
scandalised
by
those
who
are
limited
and
confined
within
themselves,
to
whom,
as
they
see
nothing
better
than
they
have
themselves,
all
that
is
diflferent
to
what
they
possess
appears
evil.
But
the
holiness
of
these
simple
and
innocent
ones
whom
they
despise
is
a
holiness
incomparably
more
eminent
than
all
which
they
consider
holy,
because
their
own
works,
though
performed
with
such
strictness,
have
no
more
strength
than
ij^e
principle
in
which
they
originate,
which
is
always
the
effort,
though
raised
