As she and I grow older and see more of the vanities of earth and experience more of its sorrows, she grows more dear to me, and today I love her far more tenderly than when she stood as a beautiful bride at the marriage altar and plighted me her hand and heart. I am ready to apply to her the Biblical description of a virtuous woman: "The heart of her husband doth safely trust her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of life. She seeketh wool and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. She stretcheth out her hands to the poor: Yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all." (Prov. 37 chapter).
