He spent some minutes over the inscription of the psalm allegorised it made it mean something which it never did mean in the writer's mind, and which it, as Raphael well knew, never could mean, for his interpretation was founded on a sheer mis-translation.
If the leading agencies of Harold's memorable career might be, as it were, symbolised and allegorised, by the living beings with which it was connected as Edith was the representative of stainless Truth as Gurth was the type of dauntless Duty as Hilda embodied aspiring Imagination so Haco seemed the personation of Worldly Wisdom.
