 A Fortune to Share
by Vash Young
H13 following address was given
T by Vash Young, of New York,
one of the leading producers oi
the the Equitable Ivife Assur­
ance Socicty of the United States, to
the business interests of Louisville,
Kentucky.
That is the subject of my address—
“A Fortune to Share.” In explanation
I would like to say that while you
may not know it and I may not look
it. i am, in reality, fabulously wealthy.
Ami my riches are not the kind
that take wings and fly away. My
wealth cannot be affected by bank
failures, stock market crashes and
business depressions. It is permanent
and unlimited, so you are all welcome
jo any part of it you may want,
I aquired this great wealth through
the death of an old .associate of mine.
Now you may think it rather strange
for mn to tell gleefully about tlio
death of an oM friend. 1tut this is
one funeral over which I can be very
happy, as you will soon see. Thia
old associate had treated me Very
badly while he lived, but at his death
he more than made up for everything.
Now I do not mind telling you who
this old associate was. lie looked
just like me and hg had the same
name as mine., ^ ^ s , a matter of fact
lie was my former: sell:. Yes, after a
long suffering illness, my former self
Anally gavo up tho ghost and died,
and I would liko to tell you what was
burled w ith him : Selfishness, pessi­
mism, fear, worry, indecision, regret­
ting the past, <loubting the future,
stewing about business, being irritable
at home, envying the other fellow,
slavery to false appetites and desires,
and a lot of other Junk too numerous
to mention. Thjrse things were all
very definitely buried with m y fo rm e r
*olf. After the funeral the will was
read and I found that my new self
had inherited the following riches
forever:—
My Inheritance: Unselfishness, op­
timism, fearlessness, contentment, de-
eision. forgetting the past, confidence
in tin* future, dominion over business
troubles, kindness and patience at
home, rejoicing in tlie other fellow’*
success, freedom front false appetites
and desires, and many other riches of
a similar nature. I took this inherit­
ance out into the business world and
(t made me successful beyond my
fondest hopes. I started giving it
away to people with whom 1 came in
contact and tin* more I gave tin' innto
1 received. It is a fortune 1 can
never deplete, so I am more than
happy to share it with you.
Djvidimr Up: 1 think the best w aj
for me to share my fortune is to
show you just how it can be used in
practical everyday affairs. Kor in ­
stance, at the time I inherited my
wealth I had a very comfortable posi­
tion fl-s eastern manager of a largo
publishing house. Hut I suddenly felt
capable of doing much bigger things.
So with a wife and child to look af'er
and less than 100 dollars in the bank,
I resigned my nice comfortable posi­
tion without having another one to go
to. I went home that night and told
Mrs Young what I had done. Instead
of throwing up her hands in despair
she threw them around my neck and
wo joyfully danced a jig around our
compartment. You see. I had pre­
viously shared by fortune with her
and we felt ready for bigger things.
TH® Morning After
The next morning was one of the
most important mornings of my life.
W ith no job, little or no money, and
a wife and child to look after, I was
 A FORTUNE
in as tight a hole, perhaps, as anyone
here today. In fact, outwardly, I was
in a “hell of a fix”— if you will pardon
the expression. Cut inwardly I was
in a “heaven of a fix.” Outwardly, I
was almost poverty stricken and
busted. Inwardly, I was richer than
any monarch on his throne. I men­
tally rolled up my sleeves and chal­
lenged negative thinking- to a death
battle.
I did something that morning that
every troubled business man in the
world could do with extreme profit at
this time. I analysed my situation.
I realised that I was sternly up ag­
ainst it, and that I had to do some­
thing Intelligently and quickly. So I
carefully considered two courses that
were open to me. One course was to
get panicky, to reason that I had made
a mistake in resigning my position,
to b e c o m e depressed and fearful, to
view the future with pessimism and
doubt, to wonder bow long 100 dollars
would Inst, to become completely filled
,,T, ’ f ,n jtvt rc<;entTnonf im pa­
tience, discouragement, a.nd so on.
Friends, T hnd just enough common
ordinary horse sense to figure out that
this course of notion would utterly
ruin mo. So I quickly abandoned it.
Th<\n I contemplated the other
course that was open to me. The first
thins* to do was to quit thinking about
myself-, to forget the past and the
future, and to concentrate on today. I
calmly realised that I had always had
a place to sleep, something to eat, and
something to wear. As these three
things were all I needed, and as I had
always had them, why worry th a t
some day I would not have them?
R ight then and there I got rid of
fear and self and the rest was com­
paratively easy. I took every weak
and fearful thought that came to me
and literally shook it to death. It
was a great battle, but w ith my “For­
tune of right thinking’* to support me,
I won out.
To hasten the story along, I Anally
engaged in one of the most highly
competitive businesses in the world—
the life insurance business. I started
TO SHARE
in from scratch as a common ordinary
agent on a strictly commission basis.
But right here I would like to let you
in a little secret— I did not go to
sell life insurance. I went out to use
my inheritance of sane thinking and
right acting. I went out to give and
not to get. I went forth as a bundle
of ideas—a bundle of qualities, if you
please, which X knew would make mo
successful if I lived and practised every
day. I was so busy expressing these
qualities that I did not have time to
worry or fret about my condition
Things began to happen In my
favor. Successful men and women not
only started buying irom me our
sent mo to their friends. "WHtera
bega.n referring to me in newspapers
and magazine articles. I was called
upon to address insurance meetings
in different parts of the country. My
clients gave me a testimonial lun­
cheon at one of the large New York
hotels. The American Magazine asked
me for a story and in the September
1:rjs, issue I told some of mv experi­
ences unih’r the title, “I (Jot Tired of
Ileing a Fool.” Seemingly many
others had become tired of being
foolish, beeau^o a flood of letters
o:-me in from all parts of the country
about the story and they are still
coming i.n. even though the article is
now over two years old.
Today I have everything I need. I
have a comfortable home and a well-
established business. I have loads of
good friends; I am in perfect health
and have a bright outlook on life. I
tell you these things .not to brag—far
from it—but to illustrate w hat a little
commonsense w ill do in times of
trouble. I am wholly convinced that
the only lack there is is the lack of
right thinking in times of stress.
Now let's take a look at general con­
ditions today. Ju st what has hap­
pened. To me. the answer is very
plain. It is simply this: The getting
habit has been rudely interrupted.
Just let me repeat that statement,
“The getting habit has been rudely
interrupted.” This is not a new
experience, for the “getting habit” has
 A FORTUNE
been interrupted periodically down
through the a pres and always will be.
You simply cannot stabilise “self in ­
terest.” The “getting habit” is always
in trouble because it never gets quite
enough to satisfy it. It goes merrily
along for a while and then comes an
interruption similar to that which we
are experiencing today.
Take the stock market crash, for
MV'tance. The “getting habit" was
responsible for that. Investors were
not satisfied with a fair return on
their i.nv« stments. They were waiting
to get more. The result was that self
interest expanded beyond its own
limits, and finally burst. Fictitious
values vanished over-night. Material
wealth took wings and Hew away. The
poor old “getting habit” with only the
weak pro]) of “self interest” to lean
upon faltered and fell to the ground.
Pessimism and depression swept over
the land and paralysed business. And,
lo and behold, another panic was on.
Wih on the “getting habit"' caught
its breath again it started right off
on its same old course. For instance,
this appeal was sent out to the public:
“Huy now and bring back prosperity.”
There were two little words omitted
from that appeal which should havo
been added to it. The appeal should
have* read, “Hay now and bring ba?k
prosperity— to me.” Then it would at
least have been honest. My friends,
the appeal fell on deaf ears beeauce
it was selfish and the public was not
inspired by it. The "getting habit”
is a bit dumb when it comes to get­
ting out of a hole.- It is always worn
out, disgruntled and unhappy.
This .is not so w ith the “giving
habit.” This habit is never unhappy
nor distressed because it hacTnt any­
thing to get. Please ponder that
statement a little. The “giving habit’'
has nothing to get. W h at if business
had sent out an appeal to the public
that read something like his: “There
is nothing to be alarmed about. W e
are 120.000,000 strong in a rich and
fertile land. W o have half the gold
that is in the world, half the m ach­
inery, and the will to overcome ob­
TO SHARE
stacles. We appreciate your confid­
ence and support, and during this re­
adjustment period we are taking steps
to give you the biggest run for your
money that you have ever received.
We are going to give you better mer­
chandise, better prices and better ser­
vice. We realise that you have many
problems to meet and we want to help
you to solve them. Sincerely yours,
United States Kusiness.”
That kind of messgae from business
would havo met with a public* re­
sponse b. cause it lias in it the “giv­
ing* instead of the “getting qualities.”
The “giving” habit is in harmony
with the eternal law of things. It
governs bnsim-^s whether business
wants to be governed by it or not. It
is the best business stabiliser that we
can employ at this time. To me, the
“giving habit” simpl.v means giving
a good account of ourselves each day
— in other words, “giving” instead of
“get ting.”
W hile returning home from work
one evening last summer I saw a
perl’eet example of the “giving habit.”
A group <>f small hoys wen* standing
on the sidewalk and in the middle of
tli<> group was a little* follow w ith an
iee cream eono. Instead of eating the
corn* himself, he was passing it around
to the others. I shall never forget the
enraptured look on his little face as
he saw his eono rapidly disappearing
as it went the rounds. lie was hap­
pier far than his companions, who
were greedily eating his ice cream. I
started to pass on and the the
thought came to me that I m ust not
let this perfect example of “giving”
go unrewarded. So I bought each ono
of the boys a cone, but for the “giver”
I bought two cones and tucked a
quarter into his surprised hand.
You might say, “Well, Mr Young,
that example is alright for that little
street urchin, but we are practical
business people confronted with some
very serious problems and we w ant
something tangible for grown-ups.”
All right, here Is another illustration
which shows the power behind the
“giving habit”. One day a business
 A FORTUNE
acquaintance telephoned and asked
me to so to lunch with him. During
the luncheon he told me that on the
day previous his wife’s mother had
died and that his wife had become
prostrated with grief. He said that
she had been crying constantly for
about twenty-four hours and that no
one could console her. The funeral
was to be held the next day and it
was very important for her to assume
certain responsibilities. Tie then
stated that he would consider it a
great favor it X would ride out to her
home with him and attempt to do or
say something that would relieve the
sitini t ion.
1 <1i«l not stop to figure out whether
it was a profitable thins: for me to
do or not or wether I had the time
in which to do it. As a matter of
fact I had a very busy afternoon
scheduled, but I promptly forgot all
about my own interests and told this
man that I would be ^lad to go with
him. It did not take me long to pot
his wife's tears dried w^th just a
little eommonsense reasoning, and I
was told later that twenty minutes
ft<t I left his home she was up and
dressed and in full posession of her­
self. The next day the funeral went
off harmoniously and I forgot all
about the incident.
However, the invisible law that re­
wards the “giving habit” did not for­
get the incident. The brother of that
woman happened to bo Frank E.
Campbell, the well known undertaker
in New York. W hen lie heard the
story of what had happened to his
sister he wanted to meet tlie man who
had done something1 that no one else
could do. A meeting was arranged,
and one of the first things Mr Camp­
bell asked me was, “Do you get paid
for doing things of that sort?” I said,
“Mr Campbell, T don’t get paid in
gold, but I get paid in other ways
that mean more to me than gold.” lie
said, “Well, it’s gold I am talking
about. It is about time that you got
paid in real tangible form for things
of this kind.”
Then Mr Campbell explained that he
TO SHARE
had a boy whom he would like to
place in some insurance and he asked
me to let him know what it would
cost. I submitted an illustration
based upon a 25,000 dollar policy.
After examining the figures, Mr
Campbell said. “I will take a quarter
of a million.” A little dazed by this
sudden and unexpected development,
T humbly accepted Mr Campbell’s in ­
vitation to spend the evening in his
home in T„archmont, where we drove
in his Rolls Koyee car. The next
morning we brought his son, who was
then only fourteen years old, into New
York and had him examined for the
insurance. A few days later Mr Camp­
bell telephoned and asked me to find
out the largest amount of insurance
ever placed on a boy. I discovered
that .lackie Coogan had 4!>0,000 dol­
lars in force at that time. Thereupon
Mr Campbell said, “Get me half a
million.” A few days later while at
luncheon he calmly announced that
he had decided to increase the insur­
ance to three-quarters of a million,
and to cap the climax a little later ho
told me that he wanted a million dol­
lars of insurance on his boy. The
linal count was 1 0G.~,000 dollars and
there was never any selling on my
part. In fact, T tried on several occa­
sions to restrain him from taking on
so much, but the law that rewards
the “giving habit” was working over­
time and the result was beyond im ag­
ination.
One of the most distressing situa­
tions confronting the country today is
the unemployment problem. I have
great sympathy for anyone who is out
of work and have helped dozens of
men and women to find employment.
As a matter of fact, Saturday is
“trouble day” in m y office. I devote
that day to people who are in dis­
tress and usually the only ones T hear
from on Saturday are people who aro
having trouble of one kind or another.
There are exceptions, however, and
there was a very amusing one just
last Saturday. My telephone rang
about 1 o’clock and as usual I ans­
wered with a cheerful “Good m orn­
 A FORTUNE
ing.” The call was from a man whom
I had not seen for over two years, and
he asked me if ho could see me for a
few minutes. Assuming1 that he was
in diflieulty of some kind, I sug­
gested that he como right on up.
This seemed a little inconvenient for
him so we spent some time discuss­
ing- tiie best hour for the appointment,
lie finally came to m y ollice and com­
pletely dumfoundod me by saying
that he had had an exceptionally gooel
year in business and wanted to take
out some more insurance. I apolo­
gised to him for not offering to call
at his otlice and then we both had a
good laugh over the business.
Christmas Incidents
I lind that tin*- best way of getting
people out of trouble is to change
their thinking. For instance, about
9.no last Christmas Eve as I was re­
turning home, a man slopped me on
the street and asked if I would help
him get something to eat. 1 noticed
that he was a young fellow so 1 said,
“Surely, son. I will help you get some­
thing to eat. Hut you are pretty young
to be doing this sort of thing. You
have* a long* way to go yet and this
is not the best way to go.” I then
cheered him up the best way I could,
gave him some money and went on
my way. The next morning, which
was Christmas Day, a very unusual
tiling occurred. I lol/t home e irly
to call upon my brother, who has two
line boys, and I wanted to see them
with their Christmas things. I stop­
ped for a bite of breakfast in a one-
arm lunch room in the Grand Central
station. As I sat down in one of the
chairs, T was greatly surprised to see
my young friend of the night before
sitting opposite me,
I was quirk to notice that he had
gotten a shaves during tho night,
which increased my interest in him.
I greeted him cordially, and asked
him if he would have something to
eat, to which he replied that he was
too discouraged to oat. Whereupon I
said, “Son, I guess wo w ill have to
prove to you that your Heavenly
Daddy is looking out for you. Here
TO SHAKE
is some money to get through the day
and here is my address. If you w ill
come to my home at 8 o’clock tonight
I will be glad to have a little talk
with you.”
Promptly at eight o’clock he showed
up. We had some guests and were
just finishing our dinner, but Mrs
Young sat him right down at the
dining room table and gave him a
good Christmas dinner. After ho had
finished I took him into my study and
got his .story. lie had been out of
work for several months and had got
so shabby that it was impossible for
him to even sen anyone—much less
get. a job.
I said to him, “Son, you haven’t
been unemployed all these* months.
Von have been working overtime. You
have bee n toiling and slaving, but
for tin* wrong boss. You have been
working for failure, eliscouragement,
fear, worry, lack, and so on, and tho
sad part e>f it is that there* has been
no salary or income attached to your
labors.
You seem to be destitute* and w ith­
out funds, but I am going te> tell you
how to become* rich e»ve*rnight. I
want you to deposit the* following
thoughts in your menial bank right
now: 1 am not afraid, I am a success
and not a failure, I have* an inexhaust­
ible supply e)f courage, ability, energy,

grasped the* idea.
Then I said, “Take e>ff yemr coat.”
lie took off his and I took off mine*
and tried it e>n him. It was a gooel fit,
so I said, “There is a* new suit for
you.” Then with Mrs Young’s help I
got together some shoes, socks, under­
wear, shirts, ties, collars, ha»mlker-
ehiefs—in fact a complete new w ard­
robe? and gave them to him. I also
paid his room rent for one week, and
gave him some money to buy food for
some days. As he was leaving my
home I said, “Son remember ono
thing. Before you can be unemployed
your Heavenly Father would have to
go out of business. As this can never
 A FORTUNE
bo, you are employed all the time
expressing Him. Remember to draw
upon your new bank account when
you need it.” About a week later this
young fellow called upon me one even­
ing and I could hardly recognise him.
He was all dressed up and cleaned,
and excitedly told me that he had a
job. I said, “That’s fine son. how did
it happen?” His reply was, “Well, I
was com ini? over from ]3rook3yn the
other morning and I heard one man
say to the other, “Mr So-and-so is
looking for a man to do some office
work." I immediately remembered
wiiat you told me about my bank ac­
count and T drew out a largo hunk of
courage and said to this man, “ Would
you mind giving me the name and
address of this man who is looking
for someone to do office work. I can
do that kind of work and need a job
very badly,” After a little question­
ing this man gave him the namo of
his friend and this young chap went
down and got the job. A oil can call
Hir-1 what you want.
Lot's take the case of the man a
littV higher up tin* ladder. An ac-
inaintam v of mine in Xew York who
had always made between Mfl and
*nto«(» dollars a year, suddenly lost his
position through no particular fault
jf His own. In talking over his situa­
tion with him one day he admitted
that he was quite worried about the
future. T handed him a piece of paper
and told him to put down the thoughts
that were racing through his mind
every day. The particular list he
made up as follow: Fear that he
would not be able to find another job;
the fear that his savings would be
exhausted; wondering what his friends
would think; resentment over his
situation; chagrin and disappoint­
ment; and an almost constant fit of
the “blues/
Sane Advice
I finally held up the complete list
before him and said, “Now when you
come into the Grand Central station
tomorrow morning just take this list
over to one of the baggage stands
and check it there. Pick up these

things again at night and take them
home again with you if you must, but
for heaven’s sake don’t carry them
around with you all day long because
they w ill not do you any good. This
man caught the idea and the next
morning he sent me by messenger a
great long list of things—negative
things if you please— which he had
mentally checked at the station that
morning. He went out with a new
spirit and in short time had a new
job.
Thor#* is no use denying that condi­
tions must have been very bad all
over the world, and heroic efforts
have been made to normalise them.
Kings, Dictators. Presidents, Gover­
nors. Mayors and local business org­
anisations have called many confer­
ences to cope with tlie situation. But
wo are still in turmoil and confusion.
Therefore, let us imagine her*' today
that the Supremo. P.eing of heaven and
earth ealled a gigantic meeting to be
attended by all the peoples of the
e rth. T am persuaded that His in v i­
tation Would read something like this:
“.My Dear Children.—After centuries
of patient but vain waiting for you to
get your earthly affairs harmoniously
settled, I have decided to hold an open
meeting in the Kingdom of Heaven,
to which you are all invited. At this
mooting, I will toll you exactly the
cause of all your troubles, and then
will give to each nation and each in ­
dividual a simple formula for living
a happy and successful life. W hile
everyone is cordially invited to this
meeting, there are certain restrictions
that I must place on each invitation.
Kverj'ono who attends must leave be­
hind the following traits of character:
Selfishness, pride, greed, envy, malice,
dishonesty, jealousy, intolerance, fear,
worry, pessimism, depression, hate,
anger, otc. A ll who come to the meet­
ing with their consiousness entirely
freed from these unlovely things w ill
be welccomed in. Those, however, who
attempt to bring any of those things
will be refused admittance. Time of
meeting—now. Place of meeting—
your own conciousness.”
 A FORTUNE
The day for the big meeting has
arrived. I am further persuaded that
a kind and patient Heavenly Father
would opem fho meeting’ something
after this fashion: —
“My dear Little Flock.— I am happy
to moot with you and it is particularly
gratifying to me that so many of you
were willing to qualify for attendance
at this mooting. I am sorry that you
have been having so much trouble
all down* through the ages, and I
thought it was about time for Me to
got you rill together and tell you
wherein the difficulty lies. Before go­
ing any further, however, I want to
give you a big surprise. In your pre­
sent state of oonsiousnoss you are
not only in the Kingdom of Heaven
with Mo, but you are yourself the
Kingdom of Heaven. The Kingdom
of Heaven is not a locality but rather
a stale nf being. It is the opposite of
those thiiurs tb; t T told you not to
brlmr to this meeting. Through My
Beloved Son, I told you that the K in g­
dom of (Sod or Heaven was within
you. Xow about your troubles—they
have a :l enme about by a national and
individual false sense of ownership.
For eenluries I have been sending My
ebildren into the world with nothing
and taking them out with nothing—
materially speaking. This in itself
should prove to you that everything
belongs to Me. But, unfortunately,
both as nations and individuals you
have considered that certain parts of
the earth and the things therein be­
longed to you. You have always been
struggling to “got” thing and then
fighting and quarreling over your
fancied possessions which, in reality,
belong to Mo. And now I will givo
you a simple plan for living a suc­
cessful and happy life—both nation­
ally and individually. ^n the first
chapter of your Bible you are told
that I made you to My likeness and
image. This is the truth and I want
you to go about your affairs as My
image and likeness— in other words,
in everything you say and do. It
should be plain to you that I must bo
expressed. Instead of expressing Me,
TO SHARE
however, you have busily engaged in
expressing My counterfeit, who is
made up of the things that I told you
not to bring to this meeting. Now in
order to make it easy for you to be
like Mo, I will toll you just what I
am. I am love, unselfishness, patience,
kindness, justice, intelligence, ability,
tolerance, charity, peace, joy, brother-
linoss, and so forth. This is the
“ Kingdom of Heaven” and it is within
you—now. I W t preach it—live it.
Finally, dear children, draw nigh to
Mt' and I will draw nigh to you.”
Friends, don’t you agree that this
is just about what the Alm ighty
would say to us if Ho called us to
get her? If there is an Almighty (and
who will say that there is not)? is it
not reasonable that He must bo ex­
pressed? Wo have been expressing
His demoralised opposite, and we aro
working over time on that particular
Job today. That is the trouble with
us. If tin* Bible had declared tho
"Kingdom of hell** is within yon, a
'-•Teat many p-'ople would understand
that uiui’li better than the “Kingdom
of Heaven" is within you. Hell is not
a. Sunday proposition to a lot of
people, but rather a daily and hourly
affair. So it should be with Heaven.
Tiie “ Kingdom of Heaven’’ is simply
a state of being. It. is the direct op­
posite of all the grief and disaster we
see between the cradle and tho grave.
Tt is about time for the people of
the world to realise this and begin
to honor tho Alm ighty in tho things
wo think and do.
Two Important Points
And now you will be glad to know
that I am almost finished. I just
want to point out two more things
to you. One is this: It is a pet con­
tention of mine that if men and
women were ordered to do some of
the foolish things they do each day,
they would rebel against the orders.
In this connection a prominent man
regarded himself as having been saved
from a drunkard’s grave by his wife
who, before their marriage, made him
promise that he would get drunk
every Thursday night. It was not

long before he begged permission to
become a total abstainer.
I'or instance, what if you were ord­
ered to do the following: Get up in
the morning and start thinking about
yourself right away. If things haven’t
gone just right at home be sure to
get in a couple of nasty digs at some­
one before leaving the house. Kick
about the weather. Regret the past.
Worry about the future. Be envious
of the other fellow. B e co m e irritated
when things go against you. Acknow­
ledge that conditions are bad. Be
pessimistic and depressed. Stew
about business. W ish that you were
in some other town, Blame somebody
else for your hard luck. Put off until
tomorrow things that should be done
today. Plan your work when you
should bo working your plan. Finally,
enlist all of y o u r , thinking against
you instead of in your favor. If you
received visible instructions to do
these things you would not do them.
W hy obey the invisible instructions?
In conclusion may I suggest a plan
that almost anyone can use to ad­
vantage? ]t is this:—
(let up in the mornings and say,
to share
“Thank God for what I have.” instead
of, “P lease God give me a lot more."
Try to make somebody happy for the
day before leaving the house. Dis­
regard the weather; you can’t do any­
thing about it anyway. Go out to
‘‘give’’ and not to “get.” Don’t engage
in pessimistic talk. Forget yourself
and think of the other fellow. If you
are an employer tell your employees
that your institution is in business to
stay. Assure faithful employees that
their jobs are safe. W arn careless
employees that they must give better
service. If you are an employee be
sure that you are grateful for your
job. liealise that you are paid for
your “thinking.” Be w illing to let
your employer see your thinking and
your acting at any time during the
working day. Tie a booster instead of
a kicker. He convinced that you are
in the best town in the world. F in ­
ally, enlist all of your thinking in
your favor instead of against you.
I would like to close with this little
verse from Scripture:— ,
"Give and it shall be given unto you;
good measure, pressed down and
shakeVi together, and running over,
shall men give into your bosom.”
