But, when things are seen in the light of a purpose, a view of them as a whole becomes possible, and the fragmentariness of time is transcended.

But prominently to express a character was impossible under the common tenor of Grecian life, unless when high tragical catastrophes transcended the decorums of that tenor, or for a brief interval raised the curtain which veiled it.
