I see that morning in Thy convert's tears,  Fresh as the dew, which but this downing wears.  I smell her spices; and her ointment yields  As rich a scent as the now primrosed fields:  The Day-star smiles, and light, with Thee deceased,  Now shines in all the chambers of the East.  ...

When a man undergoes treatment from a doctor, he does not need to know the way in which the drug works on his body in order to be cured. There is a sense in which Christianity is like that. At the heart of Christianity there is a mystery, but it is not the mystery of intellectual appreciation; it the mystery of redemption.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7823</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The judge's duty is to inquire about the time, as well as the facts. [Lat., Judicis officium est ut res ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23510]]></link><description><![CDATA[The judge's duty is to inquire about the time, as well as the facts. [Lat., Judicis officium est ut res ita tempora rerum  Quaerere.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I figured something out in 2004 and last year kind of carried it over.
