________________ Votary of Continence Woman worships her deity, consecrating the radiant spirit of continence in her deity. The resplendent flame serenely burning on the temple-tray of woman is only an emblem of that spirit of continence. So when woman offers her homage to her deity, she renders not that homage unto her deity, but unto the spirit of continence embodied. It would be, accordingly, both more becoming and honourable to woman to call her the worshipper of continence rather than the adorer of the deity, as she renders her obeisance with benign faith at the feet of the presiding spirit of continence! Mind's Pace Man who can touch the orb of the moon with the tip of his finger and delve into the bottom of the sea with the heels of his feet, may comprehend perchance all the elements of the universe, but not the pace of his mind!
