第吾人所仰慕者、非形而下之事、乃形而上之事；蓋形而下者暫而不久、而形而上者則永生靡暨也。吾人現世暫寓之逆旅、固有土崩瓦解之時。然吾人在天有一永久之安宅焉。此宅也、非人手所造、乃天主之所賜也。是故吾人呻吟不輟、渴望得庇於天上之安宅、有如衣之蔽體；雅不欲赤身露體、而無所被服也。蓋吾人現處於逆旅之中、實不堪其局促、因是而呻吟焉；非以自求解脫、乃欲被上新服、庶幾有死之身得融化於永生之中。夫天主之所以創造吾人者、正為此事；且已授吾人以聖神為其保證。因是吾人常具大無畏精神；且深知吾人之寄於軀壳中、猶如暫別主之庭闈、而作客他鄉者也。此雖憑信德而非憑目睹、

今予正徬徨於二者之間；衷心固願能早脫塵世、永與基督為伴；為本身計、蓋莫善於斯矣。

蓋吾人在世、本無永久之城邑；吾人之所追求者乃一未來之城府也。

不惟萬物為然、即在新受聖神妙果之吾人、亦莫不呻吟嘆息於心靈深處、而以如飢若渴之情緒、期待兒女身分之完成、即肉身之被贖是已。蓋吾人之得救也、實有恃乎望德；然已見之望、非望也；夫人於目前之事、亦何所用其望乎？正惟不見、故渴望之、且堅忍熱烈而期待之也。

然若輩之所懷者、實有愈於本鄉、則天國是已。是故天主亦不以稱若輩之天主為恥、且早已為之備一聖邑矣。
