Phillins Brooks, OratOrY.

The characteristics Of DIR. Brooks preach
ing appear 10 combine two qualities which
are commonly held 70 contradict each other
namely. depth and clearness. His style is
one of great simplicity. One may ex-
anime his published sermons and find on
page after page few words of more than
two syllables. few sentences with more
than one verb. and few paragraphs that
have not in them more words Of Anglo
Saxon than of classic origin. But the
thought in these sermons searches and ex-
plores realms in the soul Of the reader which
he has seldom examined for himself. The
quality is intensely subjective. Slight refer
ence is made TO history, to art or science. and
few congratulations are allowed. The listen
er's thoughts are not permitted TO wander
over the universe allured by the speakers
descriptive power. but he is closely kept TO
the main point of the personal
relation between himself and God
1t is quietly assumed that he is
better than he realizes: that he has in him a
spark of the divine life, and hat IL may be
famed into fame If the rocky debris of selfish-
ness and woridliness that stiles it can be re-
moved. The different qualities of the spirit
ual life are closely Analysed, its manifesto
ton are followed out IN all their subtle wind
ings. while the text is uniolded, depth on
depth, until IL seems to speak with hitherto
unsupported voices TO the listening soul. SO
rapid is the utterance of the speaker and so
interpretive his style that 1t requires the clos
est attention 10 follow him, and TO keep at the
exalted level of spiritual mindedness along
which he moves. He hurries on like the
Greek youth bearing his laurel branch from
the field of battle with its message Of victory.
and it seems to the hearers as if. like him, he
might sink breathless in the market place,
overcome both by speed and by emotion.
When he has finished he leaves them in such
