But they are less than the actual truth, for no pen will ever in one book, or in hundreds, give the full record of the individual agony, the broken heart-springs, the soul-shock as well as the shell-shock, of that frightful struggle in which, on one side and the other, two million men were engulfed.
'Tis such a sight that does my tears From very heart-springs move; For yonder knight is all to me, My husband and my love." Straight the Moor's cheek with anger flushed, Till red eclipsed the brown, And his clenched fist he lifted As if to strike her down. He gnashed his teeth with passion, The fangs with blood were red, He called his slaves and bade them Strike off the lady's head.
Further than this, they find the way by which we shall lead the waters of life which flow out of the heart-springs. They find the way whither they should flow best. Often in the doing of these things we find the lessons hard and wearisome, infinitely hard to bear, difficult, and not attractive.
When such people are true and good and thoughtful and have infinite kindness, they are teachers; and the teachers impose tasks upon us severely, perhaps, but with kind severity. They study us and music, and they seek out the work each one of us must perform in order that we may keep the heart-springs pure and uncovered.
