Volume 24

What an unimaginative notion that which is embodied in the prayer Eternal rest give unto him, O Lord. How thankful we all are here that this prayer is never answered! Eternal rest! I could really preach a most eloquent sermon upon those two words if my days for sermons were not forever ended!

—Robert Hugh Benson in Spirit

Rest! On earth you know not the meaning of the word.

—The Judge

How do you spend your days?

Reading and nursing.

Do you sleep well?

When I want to. We can do without.

When you passed over, whom did you first see?

I slept for a year. When I awoke, I was in a crowd. I did not know any of them. I was not lonesome, and did not know I had passed over until I had had a few lessons.

Do you know Frank? [A young friend lately deceased].

No―I am upstairs, as it were.

—Father

The man who could only walk in two dimensions?
