work that of n true master, has he really
something to say?
Maurice Maeterlinck is rare combination
of two personalities. He is a spiritual seer
and n clever artist
He is n lineal descendant thru the spirit,
OF the mystics, the pietsts, the seekers
after God and the mystical solution OF life,
the contemplative anchorites of a former
age. Only his probings into the Infinite are
carried on, not in the crudties of medieval
theology. but irs the dizziness of art. He
