The common opinion is that He went up to enjoy Himself in search of some spiritual ecstacy. But in this case there would have been no transfiguration. Spiritual rapture comes after earnest labour through eager prayer it is not found by seeking we have not to look for feelings or ecstacies; we need "to know the will of God, and to do it."
Mark me, sir! the man that falls in love makes a confounded fool of himself you had better at once go and hang yourself. Pretty people you are, with your 'eyes' and 'sighs' your 'loves' and 'doves' your moonlight, and flowers and ecstacies! Avoid it, sir! it's like honey-water it catches the legs of flies like you, and holds you tight.
MARQUIS. Pardon, dear prince, if I can only meet With wonder these tumultuous ecstacies. Not thus I looked to find Don Philip's son. A hectic red burns on your pallid cheek, And your lips quiver with a feverish heat. What must I think, dear prince?

I was double, not "swan and shadow," but rather, Sphinx-like, human and beast. A true Sphinx, I was a riddle and a mystery to myself.
And he does this without demanding from us any unusual strain. We have no need to plunge into Dionysian ecstacies, or cry aloud after "cosmic emotion." We have no need to relinquish our common sense; or to dress or eat or talk or dream, in any strange manner. It is enough if we remember the fields where we were born.
It would be difficult to describe the ecstacies of delight in which Joe, Jerry and Slim left the quarters of General Young to impart the knowledge of their great good fortune to Captain Mackinson. That warm friend listened to them until he could not keep his countenance straight any longer. "I forgot to tell you," he said, "that I am to go back there, also, as an instructor."
I approached him with my ordinary courtesies, and when I had convinced him of my gentleness, he let me lie down at his feet, and resumed the course of his thoughts, scratching his head, falling into ecstacies, and then writing as before. Meanwhile there came into the garden another young man, handsome and well dressed, with papers in his hand, at which he glanced from time to time.
