Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog  when it seemed as if a tangible white darkness shut you in and the great ship  tense and anxious  groped her way toward the shore with plummet and sounding-line  and you waited with beating heart for something to happen? I was like that ship before my education began  only I was without compass or sounding line  and no way of knowing how near the harbor was. "Light! Give me light!" was the wordless cry of my soul  and rhe light of love shone on me in that very hour.
