“Now pull up the second.” The youth obeyed found that the task was (difficult).
“Do the same the third,”he urged.The boy had to use all his strength to uproot it. “Now,”said the instructor,“try your hand with the fourth.”The pupil put his arms around thetrunk of the tall tree and couldn't even shake leaves.“This,my son,isjust happens with our bad habits. When they are young, we can remove them easily; but when they are old,it'shard to pull them out of the ground, we pray and struggle ever so sincerely!”
