When the divine word falls upon a pure mind skilful in cleansing itself from things hurtful it fixes its root deeply and shoots up like an ear of corn. It brings its fruit to perfection being strong in blade and beautifully flowered.

[Paul] has passed over the sweet things of this life and expressed them in painful terms calling them absence from the Lord. He did this in order that we should not fondly linger among what we now have but be prepared to depart for something much better.
