Isaiah 12:3 Therefore with joy shall you draw water out of the wells of salvation. A young girl, going to be servant in a grand house, was discovered one day in the servants hall reading her Bible. Her mistress, richly attired in satin, with dazzling jewels, stood amazed at the sight of her poor domestic, who had but one spare evening a month, employing it in the study of Scripture. "Maggie," she said, "what are you doing with that Book? It is not right that you should read it tonight. You should be out, girl." The mistress, though thoroughly worldly, yet had a kind heart, and put her hand on the shrinking girl. Maggie looked up with sweet and steadfast eyes. "This is enjoyment, ma'am," she said timidly.
