Is there a voice in weeping? Does weeping speak? In what language doth it utter its meaning? Why, in that universal tongue which is known and understood in all the earth, and even in heaven above. When a man weeps, whether he be a Jew or Gentile, Barbarian, Scythian, bond or free, it has the same meaning in it. Weeping is the eloquence of sorrow. It is an unstammering orator, needing no interpreter, but understood of all. Is it not sweet to believe that our tears are understood even when words fail? Let us learn to think of tears as liquid prayers, and of weeping as a constant dropping of importunate intercession which will wear its way right surely into the very heart of mercy, despite the stony difficulties which obstruct the way. My God, I will 'weep' when I cannot plead, for thou hearest the voice of my weeping.

C.H. Spurgeon

		Pastry of your choice
2	tb	Butter
2	tb	All-purpose flour
2		Egg yolks
1	c	Maple syrup
1/3	c	Water
1/2	c	Chopped walnuts

INSTRUCTIONS

Melt butter and stir in flour, mixing well. Beat egg yolks with syrup and
water. Add to butter-flour mixture and cook over boiling water until thick
and creamy, stirring most of the time. Add walnuts and let cool. Pour into
an 8-inch pie shell or divide into 6 individual tart molds lined with
pastry.
As a variation, sprinkle the nuts on top instead of mixing them in the
filling.
To make chiffon maple tarts, beat 2 egg whites until stiff, fold into
cooked and cooled maple cream, then pour into baked tart shells.
NOTES : This is an exquisite filling used for small tarts. Top them with a
dab of whipped cream or chopped walnuts for dinner of buffet parties.
