Excerpt from Rest in the Lord, and Other Small Pieces
IN human life, as in external Nature, there occur now and then luminous hours when our consciousness either of Joy or paln, becomes suddenly and intensely vivid, even as the beauty or dreariness of a landscape reveal themselves in the sunburst dispelling a mist. Just'as the form and colour of every rock on the mountain side, and of every tree in the waving wood, grow distinct in the radiant light, so feelings and thoughts which have remained dim and doubtful to us hitherto, seem all at once transparent and throbbing with life.
