The human form is indeed divine, as M. Belloc insists, and rightly, sacredly drawn, cannot offend the purest eye. All nature is symbolic. The universe itself is a complex symbol of spiritual ideas. So in the structure and relation of the human body, some of the highest spiritual ideas, the divinest mysteries of pure worship, are designedly shadowed forth.
You're talking enigmas, and I think we'd better say good-bye. Your way to the Belloc offices is down that street." She pointed. "And you won't help me? You won't say a word to Fabian?" She shrugged a shoulder. "If I were a man like you, who's so big, so lucky, and so dominant, I wouldn't ask a woman to help me. I'd do the job myself. I'd keep faith with my reputation.
Proof casts of all the best works, ancient and modern, are thus furnished at a small price, and so brought within the reach of the most moderate means. This morning M. and Madame Belloc took me with them to call on Beranger, the poet.
When we talk on a ceiling or at a dinner-party with any touch of the celestial in its composition, Chesterton and I, Belloc and I, are antagonists with an undying feud, but in the fight against human selfishness and narrowness and for a finer, juster law, we are brothers at the remotest, half-brothers. Chesterton isn't a Socialist agreed!
The other set they travel in well, it's the older men they meet round the swell hotels and so on the yellow-back men." "How queer!" exclaimed Mildred, before whose eyes a new world was opening. "But how do they these squabs account for the money?" "How do a thousand and one women in this funny town account at home for money and things?" retorted Mrs. Belloc. "Nothing's easier.
This reads like a frank confession of the way in which the last page of Danton came to have its place. But who dare say that Mr. Belloc is not justified of his Fine Writing? Masefield: as though the author said to himself, "God bless my soul, this is getting dull. I must positively do something and that at once." Mr.
When the police from a town a hundred miles away arrived at the same time as John Grier, it was to find the Grier and Belloc gangs peacefully prodding side by side. When the police had gone, John Grier looked Tarboe up and down. The brown face, the clear, strong brown eyes and the brown hatless head rose up eighteen inches above his own, making a gallant summit to a robust stalk.
Whether for good or for evil or for both good and evil, the geniuses seem in a fair way at last to prevail over the idealists, religious and political. And Mrs. Belloc, without in the least realizing it, was a most significant sign of the times. "Your throat seems to be better to-day," said she to Mildred at breakfast.
John Grier's eyes hardened. "You might have done it. You had it in you. The staff of life courage and daring were yours, and you wouldn't take it on. What's the result? I've got a man who's worth two of Fabian and Belloc. And you" he held up a piece of paper "see that," he broke off. "See that. It's my record. That's what I'm worth. That's what you might have handled!"
Mr. Belloc sees in the feudal system strongly administered from a centre, with the villein secured in his holding and the townsman controlled and protected by his guild, if not a perfect, at least a solidly successful polity. He applauds therefore those ages in which central justice was effective, the ages of Edward I in England and St. Louis in France.
