And this inspiration, however it may be derived, necessarily becomes a part of our intuitions, since it addresses itself to the strongest possible cravings of the human soul, and is accepted as its inseparable companion and guest. Shall we build our faith then on the Divine Word, on the Word that was in the beginning with God, and, when incarnate, was God, or on Mr.
It was like the sudden appearance of two white angels walking fearless and unscathed through the grim dominions of the Lords of Hell. Incarnate Good had somehow entered the house of the Demon, though it was in the slender periphery of two maidens' bodies, and evil, strong and resistless before, seemed in the moment to lose half its power.
To speak comforting words to a few weeping hearts; to lay His hands on a few sick folk and heal them; to go about in a despised land doing good, loved indeed by outcasts and sinners, unknown by all the dispensers of renown, and consciously despised by all whom the world honoured that was the perfect life of the Incarnate God.
It was as though from the desolate waste there had sprung a magical and exotic flower; or that the sunset lights, now deepening on fern and stone, had burned together and became incarnate in this lovely girl.

So entrancing was the notion, that I stood there a little child, a mere incarnate love, the tears running down my checks for very bliss. But presently my mood changed: what had befallen him? When first I saw him, horse and man were standing still, and I noted nothing strange, blinded perhaps by the tears of my gladness.
