That wonderful dramatic prologue, the first chapter of Job, is but a great condensation of the sorrows that fall like hail upon many a mortal house. Job's black day, like the day of the poetic prophets the true sacri vates of the ancient world is a type of a year a bitter human year.

And still less do I forget the high quality of the poets whom Plato calls the interpreters of the Gods, while Ovid says of them "'Est deus in nobis; agitante calescimus illo. And again "'At sacri vates et divum cura vocamur.

It was a question of our having but an hour or two at Loches, and we could ill afford to sacri- fice to accidents. One of the accidents, however, was that the rain stopped before we got there, leaving be- hind it a moist mildness of temperature and a cool and lowering sky, which were in perfect agreement with the gray old city.
