In every pang that rends the heart
The Man of Sorrows had a part.
--
Michael Bruce, Gospel Sonnets, Christ Ascended. Attributed to John Logan, who issued the poems with emendations of his own. "Every pang that rends the heart." See also Oliver Goldsmith, The Captivity.Jesus Christ
Keep both heart and hand in your own possession, till you see good reason to part with them; and if such an occasion should never present itself, comfort your mind with this reflection, that though in single life your joys may not be very many, your sorrows, at least, will not be more than you can bear. Marriage may change your circumstances for the better, but, in my private opinion, it is far more likely to produce a contrary result.
Anne Bronte
The greatest truths are ever known through the heart; and this sublimest of all truths, the amazing sacrifice which Eternal Love has made for guilty man, can be comprehended only by the heart, — by communion with that Love in its sorrows, sacrifices, triumphs, joys.
Richard (minister) Fuller
If the heart sorrows over physical loss, the spirit rejoices over hope of understanding.
Subhash Kak
He bent above: so still her breath
What air she breathed he could not say,
Whether in worlds of life or death:
So softly ebbed away, away
The life that had been light to him,
So fled her beauty leaving dim
The emptying chambers of his heart
Thrilled only by the pang and smart,
The dull and throbbing agony
That suffers still, yet knows not why.George William Russell
I want your life filling and stirring me. I want your happiness beneath my heart and your sorrows in my eyes and your peace in the fingers of my hand.
