STAID IV.
AN STAID SHIORRUIDH: NO, STAID SONAIS,
NO TRUAIGHE lOMLAN.
CEANN I.
MU BHAS.
" Oir a ta fhios agam gu. 'n toir thu mi gu bàs, agus a chum an tighe a
dh' òrduicheadh do gach uile bheò." — Iob xxx. 23.
Tha mi nis gu labhairt mu staid shìorruidh an duine, d' am
bheil e dol a steach aig a' bhas. Tha lob a' gabhail
beachd glè chudthromach do'n dol a steach so, ann am
briathraibh an teagaisg ; briathra a ta nochdadh firinn
choitchionn, agus 'gan comh-chur gu h-àraid. Tha'n fhìr-
inn choitchionn air a ciallachadh ann ; eadhon, gur èigin do
na h-uile neach a bhi le bàs air an gluasad as an t-saoghal
so : is eigin doibh bàsachadh. Ach c' ait an èigin doibh dol ?

eirigh, gus an àite sin, mar do thigh còmhnuidh, bheir am
bàs dhachaidh sinn. Fhad 'sa tha sinn anns a' chorp, cha'n
'eil sinn ach ann an tigh fir-turuis, ann an tigh-òsda, air
ar slighe dhachaidh : 'nuair tha sinn a' teachd a chum na
h-uaighe, tha sinn a' teachd gu 'r dachaidh, gu 'r dachaidh
fhada, Ecles. xii. 5. Is èigin do gach uile bheò a bhi 'nan
luchd-àiteachaidh an tighe so, maith agus olc, sean agus
òg. Tha beatha an duine 'na sruth, a ta ruith gu doimh-
neachda sgriosach a' bhàis : Is èigin doibhsan a ta nis a
chòmhnuidh ann an luchairtibh, am fàgail, agus dol dhach-
aidh do'n tigh so ; agus iadsan aig nach 'eil ionad anns an
