The Effect on Scholars and Think
ers OF Modern Times.

ers Of Modern Times.
1t is safe to say that there is no
other book which has had so great an
influence upon the literature of the
world as the Bible, says the Century.
And it is almost as safe-at least with
no greater danger than that of starting
an instructive discussion--te say that
there is no other literature which has
felt this influence SO deeply or shown
it so clearly as the English.
The cause OF this latter fact is not
far to seek. 1t may be, as dis
contentcd French critic suggests, that
it is partly due to the Unborn and in-
corrigib!e tendency of the Anglo-Saxon
mind to drag religion and morality
into everything. But certainly this
tendency would never have taken such
distinctly Biblical form had it not
been for the beauty and vigor OF our
common English version OF the
Scriptures. These qualities were felt
by the people even before they were
praised by the critics.
Apart from all religious proposes
sions, men and women an d children
were fascinated by the native power
and grace of the book. The English
Bible was popular, in the broadcast
sense, long before it was recognized
as one OF our noblest classics II has
colored the talk of the household and
the street, as we'll as moulded the Ian
guage of scholars. 1t has been some
thing more than "a we'll OF English
undefled;" it has become a part OF
spiritual atmosphere. We hear the
echoes of its speech everywhere and
the music OF its familiar phrases
haunts all the fields and groves OF our
fine literature.
1t is not only to the theologians and
the sermon makers that we look for
biblical illusions and quotations. We
often find the very best and most
vivid OF them in writer's proiessedly
secular Poets like Shakespeare, Mil
ton and Wordsworth, novelists like
1 Scott aud romaucers like Hawthorne;
essayists like Bacon, Steele and Addi-
| son; critics Of life, unsystematic
philosophers like Carlyle and Ruskin
all drawn upon the Bible as a treas
ury OF illustrations and use it as q
book equally familiar to themselves
and to their readers. 1t is impossible
to put too high a value upon such a
universal volume, even as a purely
literary possession.
