In concluding these suggestions there is one point I must emphasize, the more so as in treating of one particular moral problem it is difficult not to seem to ignore a truth which is simply vital to all moral training. Let us clearly recognize that there is no such thing as moral specialism. Our moral being, like Wordsworth's cloud, "moveth altogether if it move at all."
Here is a noble opening for carrying out in its kindest sense the command, "Multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the face of the earth." I have met persons, otherwise quite sane, who told me that they would like to visit India if it were not for the snakes.
Two splendid creatures they were masterpieces of the Creator's handiwork; made by Him who created man, male and female, and bade them have dominion "over every living thing that moveth upon the earth;" kings by divine right. In the belt of timber, where the trail to the ranch branches off, they met the shepherd on his way to the house for an evening visit.
Shall that then be counted right believing in Christ unto justification, that amounts to no more than to an idle speculation, or naked knowledge of him? shall that knowledge of him, I say, be counted such, as only causes the soul to behold, but moveth it not to good works? No, verily. For the true beholding of Jesus to justification and life, changes from glory to glory.
But Perceval crieth to him: "Knight, do your endeavour to save my honour and your own life and the honour of these two damsels!" And the robber-knight dealeth him a great buffet of his sword so as that it went nigh to stun him altogether. Howbeit the Coward Knight moveth not.
And when they had passed, a pain attacked Zarathustra; but not long had he struggled with the pain, when he began to speak thus: It moveth my heart for those priests. They also go against my taste; but that is the smallest matter unto me, since I am among men. But I suffer and have suffered with them: prisoners are they unto me, and stigmatised ones. He whom they call Saviour put them in fetters:
The spirit moveth me to yowl at the sunset. MRS. G. Mind! It's not tuned. Ah! How that jars. MRS. G. It's the same with all musical instruments. What shall it be? CAPT. G. 'Vanity, and let the hills hear. Sing, Pussy! 'Vanity, all is Vanity, said Wisdom, scorning me I clasped my true Love's tender hand and answered frank and free ee: 'If this be Vanity who'd be wise?
"Other signs and miracles which he was wont to tell as having happened at the prayer of an unnamed person, are believed to have been granted to his own, such as the sudden reappearance of a lost book in his cell." Ah, if Faith, that moveth mountains, could only bring back the books we have lost, the books that have been borrowed from us! But we are a faithless generation.
And there, in the very first chapter, I found the explanation. 'Have dominion, God said, 'over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. There was nothing really miraculous in Christ's authority over the fish. I never see a man dangling with a line without a sigh for our lost dominion.
Dark and inexplicable Fate! weaver of wild contrasts, demon of this hoary and old world, that movest through it, as a spirit moveth over the waters, filling the depths of things with a solemn mystery and an everlasting change! Thou sweepest over our graves, and Joy is born from the ashes: thou sweepest over Joy, and lo, it is a grave!
