After a pause, Carmady continued, "Belief is declining, but those who disavow the divinity of Christ eagerly insist that they retain his morality the cowardly morality of the weak who demand a redeemer to redeem them. The morality of the Ghetto prevails; Christians are children of the Ghetto." "It is given to men to choose between sacraments and statues," said Rodney.
Ned hadn't finished his tea when there was a knock at the door. "And how do you do, Miss Ellen?" said Mrs. Grattan, and Ellen guessed from her manner that Ned had told her. "Well, Mrs. Grattan, I am glad that you are the first person to bear the news to. I have just asked my father's consent and he has given it. I am going to marry Mr. Carmady." Mrs.
Carmady called he was to show him in, and it was not long after that a knock came at the front door. "You have come in time for a cup of tea, Carmady. You know Rodney?" "Yes, indeed." "Carmady used to come to my studio. Many's the time we've had about the possibility of a neo-pagan Celtic renaissance. But I did not know you were in London. When did you arrive?" "Yesterday.
But, Harding, you sit there saying nothing. No, you're not going back to Ireland. Before you came in, Carmady, I was telling Harding that he was not acting fairly towards his biographer. The poor man will not be able to explain this Celtic episode satisfactorily. Nothing short of a Balzac could make it convincing."
"The idealism of the Irish people," said the priest, "was inveterate," and he settled himself on his short legs and began his peroration. Ned had begun to feel that he had failed, he began to think of his passage back to America. Father Murphy was followed by a young curate, and the curate began by saying that Mr. Carmady would be able to defend his theories, and that he had no concern with Mr.
If he tells the clergy that the moment Home Rule is granted an anti-religious party will rise up and drive them out of the country, he will set them against Home Rule, and if the clergy are not in favour of Home Rule who, I would ask Mr. Carmady, who will be in favour of it? And I will ask you, my dear child, to ask him I suggest that you should ask him to what quarter he looks for support."
In Ireland the clergy were apt to forget this simple fact that celibates do not continue the race. Mr. Carmady had quoted from a book written by a priest in which the distinguished author had said he looked forward to the day when Ireland would be one vast monastery, and the curate agreed with Mr. Carmady that no more foolish wish had ever found its way into a book. He agreed with Mr.
Carmady's theories, though, indeed, he did not hear Mr. Carmady say anything which was contrary to the doctrine of our "holy religion." Father Murphy had understood Mr. Carmady's speech in quite a different light, and it seemed to the curate that he, Father Murphy, had put a wrong interpretation upon it; at all events he had put one which the curate could not share. Mr.
I'm going to South Africa. There's fighting going on there, and it is a brand new country." "Three Irishmen meet," said Rodney; "one seeking a country with a future, one seeking a country with a past, and one thinking of going back to a country without past or future." "Is Harding going back to Ireland?" said Carmady. "Yes," said Rodney.
"You tried to snuff out the Catholic candle, but Harding hopes to trim it." "I'm tired of talking about Ireland. I've talked enough." "This is the last time, Carmady, you'll be called to talk about Ireland. We'd like to hear you." "There is no free thought, and where there is no free thought there is no intellectual life.
