Morality penetrates all things, it is the soul ofall things. Beauty may clothe it on, whether it is false morality and anevil soul, or whether it is true and a good soul. In the one case thebeauty will corrupt, and in the other it will edify, and in either caseit will infallibly and inevitably have an ethical effect, now light, nowgrave, according as the thing is light or grave. We cannot escape fromthis; we are shut up to it by the very conditions of our being. For themoment, it is charming to... have a story end happily, but after one haslived a certain number of years, and read a certain number of novels, itis not the prosperous or adverse fortune of the characters that affectsone, but the good or bad faith of the novelist in dealing with them. Will he play us false or will he be true in the operation of this or thatprinciple involved? I cannot hold him to less account than this: he mustbe true to what life has taught me is the truth, and after that he maylet any fate betide his people; the novel ends well that ends faithfully.
