   1  God, from the sweet sense and presence of Life and
     Truth.
   3      It is ignorance and false belief, based on a material
     sense of things, which hide spiritual beauty and good-
     ness. Understanding this, Paul said: "Nei-

    Man
    inseparable
    from Love

   6  ther death, nor life, . . . nor things present,
     nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor
     any other creature, shall be able to separate us from
   9  the love of God." [[[This is the doctrine of Christian
     Science: that divine Love cannot be deprived of its

     To be master of chords and discords, the science of
     music must be understood. Left to the decisions
  27  of material sense, music is liable to be misappre-
     hended and lost in confusion. Controlled by belief,
     instead of understanding, music is, must be, imper-
  30  fectly expressed. So man, not understanding the Sci-
     ence of being,--thrusting aside his divine Principle as
     incomprehensible,--is abandoned to conjectures, left in
