The Path of Comfort

Margaret Brewster, in one of her useful books, speaking of Carlyle, as "one who once appeared almost a Christian," quotes the following saying of his:
"Let him who gropes painfully in darkness or uncertain light, and prays vehemently that the dawn may ripen into day, lay this other precept well to heart, which was to me of invaluable service; Do the duty which lies nearest thee, which thou knowest to be a duty, thy second duty will already have become clearer."
