True genius never cowers, and there is always some Samson feeling for the pillars of authority.
Cathedrals and domes, and chimes and chants ■ — temples frescoed and groined and carved, and gilded with gold — altars and tapers, and paint- ings of virgin and babe — censer and chalice — ■ chasuble, paten and alb — organs, and anthems and incense rising to the winged and blest — man- iple, amice and stole — crosses and crosiers, tiaras and crowns — mitres and missals and masses — rosaries, relics a
...nd robes — martyrs and saints, and windows stained as with the blood of Christ — never, never for one moment awed the brave, proud spirit of the Infidel. He knew that all the pomp and glitter had been purchased with Liberty — that priceless jewel of the soul. In THOMAS PAINE. 157 looking at the cathedral he remembered the dun- geon.
