Shakespeare. like Eschylus, is prod
i-sal with the unfathomable. The ur;-
fathomable is the inexhaustible. The
more profound the thought the more
vital the expression. Out of blackness
comes color. The life of the abyss is
hidden; the central fire produces the
volcano. the volcano the lava. the lava
oxides. The oxides seek meat and fer
tilize the root; the root creates the
flower. Thus the rose springs from
the flames. The labor of the abyss ls
repeated in the brain OF the genius.
The idea, the abstraction within the
poet is charm and reality in the poem.
What darkness beneath the earth,
what tingling life ON its surface!
Without the darkness there would be
DO life. The vegetation of imagery
and expression is rooted in mystery.
The flowers are the proof OF the
depths.-North American Review.

We do not wish to appear as beggars
