Now, it was on all hands admitted, as we read again with renewed delight, that there were no jars, no chiding, no interferings, no unfaithful doings in the town of Mansoul; but every man kept close to his own employment.

The gentry, the officers, the soldiers, and all in place, observed their orders.

And as for the women and children, they all followed their business joyfully.

They would work and sing, work and sing, from morning till night, so that quite through the town of Mansoul now nothing was to be found but harmony, quietness, joy, and health.

What more could be said of any governorship of any town than that?
The Heavenly Court itself, out of which Governor God's-peace had come down, was not better governed than that.
