Excerpt from Memorials of a Quiet Life, Vol. 3: Supplementary Volume The thought which most constantly occurs to those who knew her, on hearing of the wide-spread circulation of the already published "Memorials" of my dearest mother's quiet life on earth, is how surprised she must be if she knows it - how little she anticipated, when she was with us, that anything she could do or say would have an interest beyond the loving circle in which she lived. But is not the secret of this interest the same which made her earthly presence such unspeakable sunshine to those who were with her? To her, religion was in itself a happiness which radiated through her bright nature upon all around her. It did not make her endeavour to turn aside from the pleasant things of earth, but taught her to welcome and enjoy them as God's beautiful gifts. It did not urge her to judge her fellow-creatures, and in severity to condemn those who did not perfectly agree with her; but helped her, while in gentle love she shared their earthly sympathies, to raise them unconsciously to a better and nobler life - to place their thoughts, as it were, on a higher shelf.
