\u00e2\u2014\ue01aHave you not seen in the woods on a late autumn morning a poor fungus or mushroom\u2014a plant without any
solidity, nay, that seemed nothing but a soft mush or jelly\ue000by its constant total and inconceivably gentle
pushing, manage to break its way up through the frosty ground, and actually to lift a hard crust on its head? It
is the symbol of the power of kindness.\u00e2\u2014\ue01b
