But like all other good things it hath a fault. The fault is, it is good only as far as it goeth. And as old earth rolleth round, it cometh into new sunshine and the people see plainer and further, and some are getting more comfortable hearts and understandings. True, the organ is not a necessary part of the building, nor necessary part of worship. Nor is the carpet or pew.
People can bring their own chairs.
Nor is the roof a necessary part to some. Then keep them and command them, and control them. Neither has the human bagpipe in itself considered. Consecrated as the organ is to the church, we have known more intellect and real affectionate purity of thought, expressed by a proper spiritual mind, guiding the instrument for one minute, than has been expressed in ten by voices, and those not out of tune and pitch, which is often the case. And yet would we highly prize the choir of well-tuned voices.
