Do you think,because I am poor,obscure,plain,and little,I am soulless and heartless?You think wrong!I have as muchsoulas you-andfullas much heart!And if God had gifted me with some beauty and muchwealth,I should have made it as hard for you to leave me,as it is now for me to leave you.I am not talking to you now through themediumof custom,conventionalities,nor even of mortal flesh:it is my spirit that addresses your spirit;just as if both had passed through the grave,and we stood at God’s feet,equal-as we are!
