Excerpt from Broken Arcs
Yet his adhesion to the Strait Sect not only raised it out of the limbo of darkness into the light of public attention, it succeeded in accomplishing no less a serv ice for himself. It was as though from out the im pact of two rayless stars in the eternal realms of space a new and momentous luminary had leapt to glory. In his capacity of itinerant preacher (a service that occupied all his leisure hours) he was a figure of toler able familiarity in most of the towns that sprinkled the emerald fields round and about the countryside. Old hamlet, however, knew him best; for it was Oldhamlet that was his chief centre of operations, and his chief occasion of resort for self-refreshment and the refresh ment of others.
