The Bible And The Child

AuS DAOAe ana l ne Child.
The sting of our loss, writes Rollo
Ogden in his study of "sThe Literary
Loss of The Bible," in the February
Century, lies in,the perishing of the
young associations which used to be
entwined about the felicities and
majesty of biblical phraseology. The
mature and preoccupied mind will in
vain seek deliberately to assimilate the
purely literary charm and power of the
Bible. Later and colder studies cannot
give what must be drawn in almost
with mothers milk. The accumulated
Impressions of childhood, the famil-
iarity with sounding phrases before
they are understood, the play of young
imagination, of awe, and even of super
stition, about the sacred page, together
with the daily repetition and use of the
rich English of the King James version,
seem necessary to the surest and most
enduring grasp on the Bible merely as
great writing. There is certain
dlslllusionment in studying the Bible
in too cold and dry light of reason,
and though it may be a critical gain it
is literary loss.
