To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Things must be judged in the light of the coming morning, not of the setting stars.
It is not the past which, like an uncoiling spring, pushes us on; creation faces the future, and is drawn onward by an irresistible attraction. "For though it be a maxim in the schools, " says Thomas Traherne, "that there is no love of a thing unknown, yet I have found that things unknown have a secret influence on the soul, and, like the centre of the earth unseen, violently attract it. We love we know not what.... ... As iron at a distance is 124 THE HOUSE OF SORROW drawn by the loadstone, there being some invisi ble communications between them, so is there in us a world of love to somewhat, though we know not what. . . . There are invisible ways of con veyance by which some great thing doth touch our souls, and by which we tend to it. Do you not feel yourself drawn by the expectation and desire of some Great Thing ?" Life seems to have differentiated itself, develop ing a Promethean spirit within a grosser element.
