Excerpt from The Idle Man, Vol. 2: No. I

He never thought of the material world as formed on purpose to be put into a crucible; nor did he analyse it and talk upon it, as if he knew quite as much about it as He who made it. To him it was a grand and beautiful mystery - ia his better moments, a holy one. It was power, and intellect, and love, made visible, calling out all the sympathies of his being, and causing him to feel the living Presence throughout the whole. Material became intellectual beauty with him; he was as a part of the great universe, and all he looked or thought on was in some way connected with his own mind and heart. The conversation of such a man (begin where it might) always tending homeward to the bosom, was not likely to pass from a woman like Esther without leaving some thoughts which would be dear to her, to mingle with her own, and raising emotions which she would love to cherish.
