en- it into love, ] am not one of those who
think that what charmed the lover is folh-
with to be lost upon the husband. 1t is
doubtless question of kind. There NAV
be much beauty, eminent in its way. which
is but "'he perfume and suppliance of mi
nu'e;" but there exists also species and
quality of beauty, the efec, whereof, Gas |
conceive) it would not be possible for daily
familiarity to deaden, and the power where
OF may be expected to last as long as the
beauty itself lasts, and perhaps much longer.
Pictures and statues wrought by the more
spiritual masters Of art, do not satiate the
sense; and if in that beauty, which is OF
arts creation, when the art is Of the highest
order, there is this cleaving and abiding
power, we are not to doubt that Nature
which creates the art, is competent to crea lie
wl'hou, The intervention of art beauty ex-
pressed in flesh and blood, that may be con-
stantly lived with and daily dwel upon, ye
be found to be not less inexhaus,ible in its
charm. Other objects will intervene, nc
doubt. and be present to our daily life
man Gamma, be ccnscinusly and continual
y occupied with such impressions; insus.
cepllhe words intervene also, and the per.
ceplions will from time TO time be over.
clouded; this will be the Case in regard tc
those natural and universal sources from
which the sense of beauty in man is nour.
lShed as with its daily food nor can it be
otherwise in regard to human beauty, bu
when This beauty is pure and spiritual, see
no reason to suppose that II will be less
permanent source than those Others; and
will not consent to believe tina, the daily ia
miliariy with il will make it Of no effrc,
any more than that the flowers will cease
to please because they hang over our doors
or the stars, because they shine nightly.
The exception to be taken TO beauty as
marriage portion, (if ii be beauty of The high.
est order,) is not, lherefore, ,ha, ilcan become
otherwise than precious. but that it is per-
lShahle; and that let it be valued as it may
lanchoy possession:
For human beauty is sight
To sadden rather than delight;
Bring he preludes of lay
Whose burthen is decay"
And if it be my fortune to encounter ir
flesh and blood beauty which seems 10 re-
vive for us the realities from which Raphael
and Perugino painted, we are to consider
whether to possess such beauty in marriage
and see it subjected to the changes anc
chances of this mortal life, would not bring
upon US the same sort of feeling, with which
we should contemplate Madonna or a ST
Cecilia hanging exposed to the weather anc
losing some tenth part Of its form and col.
oring with each successive winter.
