Сторінка 228 - These temples grew as grows the grass; Art might obey, but not surpass. The passive Master lent his hand To the vast soul that o'er him planned ; And the same power that reared the shrine Bestrode the tribes that knelt within.
Сторінка 226 - For every stoic was a stoic ; but in Christendom where is the Christian ? There is no more deviation in the moral standard than in the standard of height or bulk.
