"He who sowed the seed, may indeed, first learn about the success in eternity; but other men will "enter into his labors," and fare the better for his having gone before them. Of their predecessor they may be ignorant; but if they find "the fields white for the harvest" and "a people prepared for the Lord," their progress will be speedier, and the triumphs of the Gospel more glorious."
— William Milne
