Music, processions, and decorations, which had been banished from the ancient worship, were introduced in the new one, and the philosophical reformer, even in the very attempt to establish a religion purely metaphysical, found himself obliged to inculcate it by a gross and material idolatry.*
And he went out, followed by the forced laugh of them both, who greeted this recommendation with uneasy merriment. A long and painful silence followed. The master did not know what to say. Timidity and emotion weighed on his will. She seemed no less disturbed. That great room, so silent and imposing with its massive, superb decorations, different from anything she had seen, frightened her.
The home-made candles and decorations were pronounced to be as good as the "boughten ones." And the candy what a miracle worker this sober-laughing, ruddy-haired young fellow was!
