Tenor voice and some knowledge of Hebrew essential; single; unworldly. Apply Philip Skale," and the address. Spinrobin swallowed the bait whole. "Unworldly" put the match, and he flamed up.
Then the secretary saw that they were discs of metal immense gongs swinging in midair, suspended in some way from the ceiling, and each one as Skale touched it emitted its beautiful note till all combined together at length into a single chord.
I have never formulated any definite beliefs, however " "Your world is not a blind chaos, I mean?" Mr. Skale put gravely to him, as though questioning a child. "No, no, indeed. There's order and system " "In which you personally count for something of value?" asked the other quickly. "I like to think so," was the apologetic reply.
When the time comes to utter it, each one of us will call the syllable or sound that awakens the mighty response in one of these immense and terrific divisions, so that the whole name will vibrate as a single chord sung perfectly in tune." Mr. Skale paused and drew deep breaths.
For many things that Skale said in this easy natural way, he felt, were in the nature of clues and passwords, whose effect he carefully noted upon his secretary, being intended to urge him, with a certain violence even, into the desired region. Skale was testing him all the time.
Skale still remains the great battering force of his life that carried him off his feet towards the stars, and sent his imagination with wings of fire tearing through the Unknown to a goal that once attained should make them all four as gods. And thus the affair moved nearer to its close.

Through the framework of the door Spinrobin saw this picture: Skale, like some awful Cyclops, stood upon the floor of the hall some twenty feet below, yet rearing terrifically up through the well of the building till his head and shoulders alone seemed to fill the entire space beneath the skylight.
The wind sometimes came down that way with curious gulps from the terraces of the surrounding moors. Yet in this sound was none of that rush and sigh that the hills breed. It did not drop across the curves of the world; it rose from the center. He looked up sharply, then at once realized that the sound was not outside at all, but inside inside the very room where he sat facing Skale and Miriam.
