land and Catholicism and feudahsm into
the England that was to be. With the eX-
ception of Mary Stuart and the repulse of
the Armada the darkness rolled away. A
terrible danger nerving and bracing the
whole community into strenuous effort,
gave place to an indescribable sense of re-
lief. As il had been in Greece after Mara
thon, Plataea and Salamis, so was it in
this land of ours when the Spaniard spread
his sails and fed away. Suddenly, almost
as If by magic, new world of literature
burst into loveliest blossom, and the ma
tional language clothed itself in strength,
in richness and in power. Not in one de-
partment of mental activity alone but in
every quarter there arose conscientious
ness of quickened fife and of boundless
possibilities The excitement the hope, the
buoyancy, the aspiration, the intensity of
a nation renewing its youth reused every
faculty into varied and many-sided alert
ness.
In some such air as this the translators
of the Kings Bible lived and moved and
had their being. And as they so lived the
glory OF the times seems to have passed
into their souls and the inspira ton of their
originals into their pens, so that they were
enabled to build up for the generations that
were to come after them an English Bible
which, with all the imperfectionS insepa-
rable from the incompleteness of their crit
leaf resources, which belong indeed to
every work of man, will ever be held in
reverence as the most splendid literary
monument of a splendid and heroic age.
