He, still holding her, came up the room, and thus, hand in hand, Troy and Bathsheba approached the coffin's side. The candle was standing on a bureau close by them, and the light slanted down, distinctly enkindling the cold features of both mother and babe. Troy looked in, dropped his wife's hand, knowledge of it all came over him in a lurid sheen, and he stood still.
He has drawn in large and universal outline the death to egotism reached in his case through hunger, nakedness and slavery and the new birth from above, the divine Soul enkindling the inner man, and wakening him to new powers and a knowledge of his genius and immortal destiny.
The message of the humane and the divine, taught among the Galilean hills and on the shores of Gennesaret, was after four centuries brought to Ireland a word of new life to the warriors and chieftains, enkindling and transforming their heroic world.

Thus did the first national misfortunes of this Celtic people become the means of enkindling in their hearts a greater love for their religion, and a greater zeal for its preservation in their midst.
"No," I answered shyly, "it wasn't that. Fact is, I was I often but it's a secret." There I made an error in tactics. That enkindling word set her dancing round me, half beseeching, half imperious.
