The ordinary research paper, when it is not extravagant theorizing, is apt to be rather sawdusty in texture, and Ann Veronica was delighted to find the same easy and confident luminosity that distinguished his work for the general reader.
Almost all our theorizing about human affairs is carried on by means of these symbols. Millions of different personalities are merged in one mental picture. We talk of a class even more readily than we talk of an individual. This is all very well so long as we do not take these generalizations too seriously.
Notwithstanding the indifference of the majority of scientists, the problems of spirit intercourse have proved sufficiently attractive to stimulate a vast amount of experimentation and theorizing. The study of mediumship has necessarily become the study of consciousness and the occult powers of the human mind.
"How to keep the flame-winged lute-player with his dumb eloquence of desire? To feast him was to lose him. Their love for each other was a great love. Their granaries were overflowing with plenitude; yet they wanted to keep the sharp famine-edge of their love undulled. "Nor were they lean little fledglings theorizing on the threshold of Love. They were robust and realized souls.
Lord Westport and I were about the age of mademoiselle, and not much more decorously engaged, when a turn brought us full in view of a royal party coming along one of the walks at Frogmore.

For nine years he had been occupied with historical and philosophic studies which he himself regarded as preparatory to some new and nobler flight of artistic creation. Of course he had been aware all along, none better than he, that great poetry cometh not by theorizing; that theory could have at the best only a general regulative value.
"I'm just showing you how vain your theorizing is," was his not altogether frank reply. "You urge me to despise money when you yourself " "That isn't fair, Arthur. If I didn't care for Ross I shouldn't think of marrying him, and you know it." "He's so like father!" mocked Arthur. "No, but he's so like you," she retorted. "You know he was your ideal for years.
He halted and turned his head like lightning, grasping his rifle in his nervous, determined way as he peered back into the gloom, whispering to himself: "That must be Lone Wolf or some of the warriors coming back to look for me." This was rather vague theorizing, however. Look and stare as much as he chose, he could detect nothing that resembled man or animal.
