A Fire Easily Perpetuated
Leviticus 6:13
The fire shall ever be burning on the altar; it shall never go out.


At Kildare a memorial fire was kept up in honour of St. Bridget for seven hundred years, and extinguished in the thirteenth century by order of an Archbishop of Dublin. It is easier to keep up the outward fires of superstition than the Divine fire on the altar of the heart.
