Eleanor was dark like his own mother. Perhaps she did a little lack Lady Ella's fine reserves; she could express more, she could feel more acutely, she might easily be very unhappy or very happy.... All these people counted on him. It was indeed acutely true, as Likeman had said, that any sudden breach with his position would be a breach of faith so far as they were concerned.
Only you would be lost in the outer wilderness. "But then " Old Likeman leant forward and pointed a bony finger. "Stay in the Church and modify it. Bring this new light of yours to the altar." There was a little pause. "No man," the bishop thought aloud, "putteth new wine into old bottles." Old Likeman began to speak and had a fit of coughing.
And seventy miles away from him old Likeman breakfasted in bed on Benger's food, and searched his Greek Testament for tags to put to his letters. And here was the familiar palace at Princhester, and in an armchair in his bed-room sat Bishop Scrope insensible and motionless, in a trance in which he was dreaming of the coming of God. "I see my futility. I see my vanity.
The Bishop of Princhester construed these brief dicta without serious exertion, he found them very congenial texts, but there were insuperable difficulties in the problem why Likeman should suppose they had the slightest weight upon his side of their discussion.
"And your wife married you I remember, she married you soon after you got that living in St. John's Wood. I suppose she took it for granted that you were fixed in an ecclesiastical career. That was implicit in the transaction." "I haven't looked very much at that side of the matter yet," said the Bishop of Princhester. "It shouldn't be a decisive factor," said Bishop Likeman, "not decisive.
Likeman had puzzled and silenced him, only upon reflection to convince him that amidst such intricacies of explanation the spirit cannot live. Creeds may be symbolical, but symbols must not prevaricate. A church that can symbolize everything and anything means nothing. It followed from this that he ought to leave the church. But there came the other side of this perplexing situation.
