Jacques Bonneval; or, The Days of the Dragonnades. New York: M. W. Dodd
  • If you have not the faith of assurance, practise at least the faith of adherence. That, at least, is in your own power. Cleave to God exactly as if you were certain of being accepted by Him at last; and thus, fulfilling his own conditions, you will be accepted by Him whether you are assured of it beforehand or not.
    • Ch. 6: Trial by Fire (pp. 108–9)
